Why those teams on that date?


Old school tradition. Game was typically played in late October with the famous '59 game with the Billy Cannon punt return being on Halloween night.

UGA/Aub. used to be later in the season.

I think it was last played on Halloween week in the early 90s, so probably associated with the Arkansas/USC expansion.
