Three days after defeating the formerly top-ranked (BCS) Louisiana State Tigers in triple overtime, the University of Arkansas offered head football coach Houston Nutt a 2-year extension. Despite the offer, Houston Nutt resigned from the school. It was a mutual decision between him and the administration. He ends a decade-long tenure with a 75-48 overall record, a 42-38 SEC record, and three SEC Western division crowns in 1998, 2002, and 2006 (0-2 in SEC Championship games).
Arkansas defensive coordinator Reggie Herring will be the interim head coach for their upcoming bowl game.
NOTE: The Mississippi State Bulldogs and the Arkansas Razorbacks tied for the division title in 1998. Because Mississippi State beat Arkansas that season, the Bulldogs went to the conference title game.
