History

Historical Context

On Dec 6 1970, No. 1 Texas traveled to Fayetteville to meet No. 2 Arkansas in a game shifted to December by ABC, drawing President Nixon and a 52.1 TV rating—the highest ever for football. Nicknamed “Dixie’s Last Stand,” it was the final major all-white contest before full integration in 1972, shaping future bowl scheduling and the Texas-Arkansas rivalry.
