I wasn't born yet when Arkansas won it's 1964 football natty. It was awesome!

'60s Arkansas teams were some of my favorites as OU was down

One of Arkansas' star players was from the Oklahoma town that I was born in and where my family originated. Because of him we followed them pretty closely in those years.

When Oklahoma got good again I pretty much lost interest in rooting for Arkansas but have fond memories of watching the few games we got to watch and listening to radio broadcasts of Hog games as a little kid.

I know a guy my age who has LSU as his second team as we used to get LSU night games on the radio in Oklahoma back then. I remember listening to a couple of those but he said he listened every Saturday night they played. You couldn't get the day games on the radio. But at night it was crystal clear.
