When the 2025 Arkansas football schedule was announced, the Hogs’ slate again resembled a nightmare. A mid-September jaunt to Memphis to face the Tigers, once a popular non-conference foil. Arkansas last played Memphis in 1998, thumping the Tigers in the Liberty Bowl in Houston Nutt’s first year as head coach. They had bedeviled the Hogs during their early 1990s ebb, notably winning one game on the strength of FOUR blocked punts by Memphis safety Kenny Irvin. Memphis benefited from a terrible decision by the officials on a long scoring pass and then stiffened defensively after halftime.
