FAYETTEVILLE -- The Arkansas Razorbacks will gladly take an outcome similar to the last time they played in the Liberty Bowl in Memphis.
But when the Razorbacks kick off Saturday against Kansas State, they would prefer a different weather pattern, and maybe a healthier third-down conversion rate than what they posted in their 20-17 overtime victory over East Carolina on Jan. 2, 2010.
Frigid air blew across the deep South for the game at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium, dropping the temperature to 29 degrees at the 4:30 p.m. kickoff. By the time the game ended, the temperature had dropped into the low 20s and the windchill factor was 15 degrees.
