Started the season in the top 10. Easily beat Memphis State to open the season. Then we lost to a lowly Kentucky team and then lost by 1 point to Alabama in Birmingham. That was Archie’s 549 yard game. We then went on to beat Tennessee, Georgia and LSU, all top 10 teams. Went to the Sugar Bowl and beat Arkansas, a team with had one loss, to undefeated Texas who won the NC that season, on a long pass that was a desperation throw. Texas was a wishbone team and seldom threw the ball. Arkansas dominated most of the game.
Point is, they overcame an early ugly loss to Kentucky.
