FAYETTEVILLE — A pair of former Arkansas All-America football players are on the ballot for the College Football Hall of Fame in 2022.

Dan Hampton, who played defensive line for the Razorbacks from 1975-78, and Brandon Burlsworth, an offensive lineman from 1994-98, are among the 78 players from the Football Bowl Subdivision on this year's ballot.

The ballot also includes seven former FBS coaches, and 99 players and 33 coaches from divisions other than FBS. The 2022 class will be announced early next year.

Hampton was an All-American as a senior defensive tackle in 1978 when he recorded 98 tackles, including 18 for loss.
