Throwback Thursday: Arkansas Defeats Florida in the Bluebonnet Bowl 1982

The last time (only time) Arkansas has beaten Florida in football was 1982 in the Bluebonnet Bowl. It was New Year's Eve 34 years ago. Believe it or not, I've got game footage.

Arkansas started the game strong with a fumble recovery and quick touchdown to take the lead 7-0. The game quickly turned against the Hogs with the Gators leading 17-7 at half.

The Hogs were able to score again in the 3rd quarter, but the Gators answered. Heading into the 4th quarter, the Hogs were down by 10.

Arkansas shutout the Gators in the 4th quarter and scored 2 touchdowns to win the game 28-24.
