In the big three team sports, the Razorbacks have only produced two national champions: the 1964 national football championship squad and Nolan Richardson‘s 1994 basketball team.
Both of those teams were great, and forever beloved in the annals of Razorback sports — but neither of them came close to being the greatest team in college football or college basketball.
Frank Broyles’ 1964 Arkansas football team went undefeated, but is dismissed out of hand for “greatest ever” because it played in a pre-integration era. The level of competition in that segregated era doesn’t compare to what it would become in the following decades when both blacks and whites would compete with each other.
