Hogs, Red Raiders set to meet in AutoZone Liberty Bowl
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – The Arkansas Razorbacks will rekindle an old Southwest Conference rivalry when they meet Texas Tech in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl on December 27 at 6 p.m. on ESPN inside Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium.
The Hogs will make their 45th bowl appearance but meet the Red Raiders in a bowl game for the first time. The last time the two teams met on the field was in 2015 but the two programs faced off annually from 1957-1991 as members of the Southwest Conference. Arkansas is 29-8 all time vs. Texas Tech.
Head Coach Sam Pittman has the Hogs in a bowl game for the fourth time in five years and in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl for the second time in his tenure. Arkansas won a triple-overtime thriller over Kansas to end the 2022 season. Pittman joins Frank Broyles, Lou Holtz, Ken Hatfield and Houston Nutt as the only Arkansas coaches to lead their teams to bowl games in four of their first five seasons.
The Razorbacks will make their seventh appearance in the Liberty Bowl dating back to 1971 against Tennessee. The Hogs have played Auburn (1984), Georgia (1987), East Carolina (2010), Kansas State (2016) and Kansas in the team’s six prior appearances.
