Coach Hugo Bezdek Arkansas team traveled to play Texas in Austin on November 2 1908, it is on that trip the local called out the Razorback name.

The team changed nicknames in the off season between 08-09 season.

The story is in a number of newspapers from that time.

Check the Memphis, Little Rock and Nashville papers. The Mephis paper has a great writer who covered Arkansas at that time, as well as western Tennessee football. That writer watched the LSU-Arkansas game of 1908.
