FAYETTEVILLE — The Arkansas Razorbacks had more than the normal incentive to beat South Carolina on Nov. 3, 2007, at Reynolds Razorback Stadium.
Coach Steve Spurrier was in town with the Gamecocks, and beating Spurrier was always good for extra motivation.
Then there was an additional push for the Hogs. The field at the stadium was being named Frank Broyles Field that day in honor of the legendary coach and athletic director who was in his 50th year on the Hill.
“You never want to lose, but that added to the game for us,” said Houston Nutt, who was in the last of his 10 seasons as head coach at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.
