Game summary[]
The Volunteers took the lead first, with a two yard run by Bill Rudder. The Hogs responded with a 36-yard TD strike from Joe Ferguson to Jim Hodge. Scoring wouldn't resume until the fourth quarter, when Razorback Bill McClard kicked 19- and 30-yard field goals. A third McClard kick was good, set up by Louis Campbell's third interception, but a penalty kept the Hogs off the board a fourth time. Arkansas fumbled at their own 36 yard line, and Tennessee's Curt Watson scored three plays later.
Arkansas set a Liberty Bowl record with 104 interception return yards in the contest. This record still stands today.[3] Louis Campbell of Arkansas had three interceptions, also a Liberty Bowl Record.[4]
