FAYETTEVILLE -- The last time Skip Holtz was at a football game in Reynolds Razorback Stadium, he was on the home team's sideline cheering for Arkansas.
That was in 1981.
"I know things have changed a little bit since then, to say the least," Holtz said.
Instead of cheering for Arkansas, Holtz will be on the visitors' sideline trying to beat the Razorbacks when they open the season against Louisiana Tech at 3 p.m. Saturday.
Holtz, going into his fourth season as Louisiana Tech's coach, has a strong attachment to Arkansas. He lived in Fayetteville when his father, Lou, coached the Razorbacks to a 60-21-2 record from 1977-83.
