Sorry our Football, Basketball, Baseball, and Track history and traditions started before the 1990s, Florida.

Sorry, I forgot all about the long, illustrious history of Arkansas football. I'm not gonna lie that I'm a bit ignorant of Arkansas' football accomplishments so I looked them up.
Well, for one y'all had that split national title in 64 the same year the Beatles released an album called "Introducing...The Beatles". I remember it like it was 50 fricking years ago.
Oh yeah, and more recently there was the SWC titles in 88 and 89. They came at the end of a decade in which almost every team in the conference faced sanctions and y'all's biggest threat, Texas, had back-to-back losing seasons that year, and yet y'all still found a way to lose to them in 89. But to their credit, Arkansas found a way to navigate their way through your other formidable conference foes like Baylor, Rice, Houston, post-death penalty SMU and TTU.
But, somehow, this football dynasty they had over in Arkansas for all these decades still manages to have a worse overall winning percentage, less national championships, and only one more win all-time than Florida despite their football program beginning 12 years earlier.
