===Overview===
[[Quarterback]] Billy Moore was voted an [[All-America]]n. Moore scored 14 touchdowns, which tied him with [[Miami RedHawks football|Miami University's]] [[Placekicker|kicker]] [[Bob Jencks]] in scoring. Future Razorback head coach [[Ken Hatfield]] finished second in the country in punt return yards, behind [[Utah State Aggies|Utah State's]] Darrell Roberts. Razorback Kicker Tom McKnelly was fourth in kick scoring, with 33 [[extra point]]s and 3 [[Field goal (football)|field goals]].

The Hog offensive unit averaged 5.0 yards per play, and 357 yards per game, the seventh-best mark in 1962. Arkansas also averaged 28.6 points per game, the fifth highest average nationally. Running on the Razorback defense was tough, as the unit gave up 90.7 yards per contest, the seventh-lowest total in the nation.

Arkansas, despite a 9–2 record, finished second<ref>"Major Conference Champions." [http://www.infoplease.com/ipsa/A0746705.html 1960 Conference Champs.] Infoplease.com.

The [[1963 Sugar Bowl]] matched up [[Arkansas-Ole Miss rivalry|rivals]] Arkansas and [[Ole Miss Rebels football|Ole Miss]] in the Razorbacks second straight [[Sugar Bowl]], and fourth bowl in four seasons. The Rebels also had reached four consecutive bowl games.

After each team kicked field goals, Ole Miss scored the first touchdown, a 33 yard strike from [[Glynn Griffing]] to Louis Guy gave the Rebels a 10–3 lead.<ref>"Ole Miss History and Records." [[University of Mississippi]]. [http://www.olemisssports.com//pdf4/80245.pdf?SPSID=87067&SPID=737&DB_OEM_ID=2600 Ole Miss Bowl History.] Retrieved on July 7. 2008.</ref> The Hogs replied with a five-yard touchdown toss from Billy Moore to knot the game at 10. Ole Miss [[Quarterback|QB]] Griffing then scored on a one-yard touchdown scamper. The Razorbacks would tack on a field goal, but as neither team could dent the scoreboard in the fourth quarter, would lose by a 17–13 final.

Arkansas and Nebraska met for the first time in the [[1965 Cotton Bowl Classic]] in [[Dallas, Texas]]. Arkansas' number-one rated defense was giving up only 5.7 points per game, where Nebraska's #7 scoring offense was scoring 24.9 points per contest.

A standing room only crowd watched as the Hogs opened the scoring on a Tom McKnelly field goal, but the Huskers responded with a Harry Wilson punching it in from one yard out. The third quarter passed with no scoring before Bobby Burnett of Arkansas ran in for the go ahead touchdown. Despite being named the AP Poll and Coaches' Poll national champion, [[1964 Alabama Crimson Tide football team|#1 Alabama]] could not hold off [[Texas Longhorns football|Texas]] in the [[Orange Bowl (game)|Orange Bowl]], which left Arkansas to take the number one spot in the FWAA Poll and a share of that year's national championship.<ref>"1964 College Football Recap."

Arkansas was invited to play in the [[Cotton Bowl Classic]] on January 1, 1965 against the [[Nebraska Cornhuskers football|Nebraska Cornhuskers]]. The Razorbacks went on to beat the Cornhuskers 10–7 and were selected as national champions by the [[Football Writers Association of America]] and the [[Helms Athletic Foundation]] as the #1 [[Alabama Crimson Tide football|Alabama Crimson Tide]] lost their [[bowl game]] against the [[1964 Texas Longhorns football team|Texas Longhorns]], a team Arkansas had beaten in Austin.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.sportswriters.net/fwaa/awards/rice/winners/index.html |title=All-Time Grantland Rice Trophy Winners |accessdate=December 31, 2007 |work=Football Writers Association of America}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://homepages.cae.wisc.edu/~dwilson/rsfc/history/helms.html |title=Helms Athletic Foundation/Bill Schroeder National Champions of College Football 1883–1982 |author=Kirlin, Bob |accessdate=December 31, 2007}}</ref> Because the final AP and Coaches (UPI) Polls were released before bowl games were played at the time, the Crimson Tide was selected national champions by the AP and Coaches' (UPI) Polls.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://homepages.cae.wisc.edu/~dwilson/rsfc/history/CoachPolls.txt |title=Coaches' polls (UPI 1950–1990, CNN/USA Today 1991–present) |author=Kirlin, Bob |accessdate=December 31, 2007| archiveurl= http://web.archive.org/web/20080105074149/http://homepages.cae.wisc.edu/~dwilson/rsfc/history/CoachPolls.txt| archivedate= January 5, 2008 <!--DASHBot-->| deadurl= no}}</ref> Because of the controversy, the AP Poll experimented with a voting model that took the final vote to select their champion after the bowl games in the 1965 season. In 1966, the AP Poll went back to taking the final vote at the conclusion of the regular season before finally adopting the post- bowl season model in 1968. The Coaches' Poll adopted the post-bowl season model in 1974 after the controversies surrounding the 1964, 1965, 1970, and 1973 national championships, seasons in which the winner of the Coaches' Poll went on to lose their bowl game.

With two legendary coaches ([[Frank Broyles|Broyles]] and [[Darrell Royal|Royal]]), two neighboring states, two football powerhouses (8 of last 10 SWC Championships), and two recent National Championships (Arkansas in 1964 and Texas in 1963), Arkansas and Texas had developed a rivalry. The game was moved from the usual third week in October to the first week in December so it could be televised nationally on [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]. President [[Richard Nixon]] attended the game, and [[AstroTurf]] was even installed in [[Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium|Razorback Stadium]] in preparation for the game.

Arkansas' top-rated defense was going up against the #1 rated Texas offense, but the Hogs got on top early, with a 1-yard TD run by Bill Burnett. After halftime, [[Chuck Dicus]] hauled in a 29-yard touchdown pass, giving the Razorbacks a 14–0 lead heading into the game's final quarter. Longhorn QB James Street then led his squad to its first touchdown, and as coach [[Darrell Royal]] had planned, Texas attempted and completed the [[two-point conversion]], which would in all likelihood prevent a tie.

Arkansas then had the ball and the lead, and a 73-yard drive later, the Hogs were in good position to tack on a field goal that would put the game out of reach, but Razorback QB Bill Montgomery was intercepted in the [[end zone]], giving Texas new life. The Longhorn drive appeared stalled at their own 43, on a 4th and 3, when Royal gambled again. A 44-yard pass to Randy Peschel, catching the ball in double coverage, put Texas at the Arkansas 13. Longhorn RB [[Jim Bertelsen]] would run in for the tying six points. The [[extra point]] snap was high, but was snared by third-string QB Donnie Wigginton and the kick was converted by Longhorn kicker [[Happy Feller]], giving Texas a 15–14 lead with 3:58 to play.

Arkansas drove to the Texas 40, looking for a field goal from [[All-America]]n kicker Bill McClard, but the turnover bug struck again as Montgomery was again picked off.

[[Arkansas-Ole Miss rivalry|Rivals]] Ole Miss and Arkansas met in the [[1970 Sugar Bowl]].

Ole Miss [[Running back|RB]] Bo Bowen scampered 69 yards to open the scoring, with [[Archie Manning]] adding another 18-yard TD run. Down 14–0, Arkansas responded with a 12-yard TD run by Bill Burnett, but the [[extra point]] was missed, and after a Rebel field goal and Archie Manning 30-yard TD strike, were down 24–6. Before halftime, [[Chuck Dicus]] hauled in a 47-yard pass from Bill Montgomery, but the [[two-point conversion]] was incomplete, and the Rebels took a 24–12 halftime lead.

The third quarter produced a field goal from each team, and in the fourth quarter fullback Bruce Maxwell caught a six-yard strike from Montgomery to cut the lead to five, but the rally fell short, the Hogs losing by a 27–22 final.
