The 2021 Arkansas Razorbacks finished the season with a 9-4 overall record, 4-4 in SEC play, won the 2022 Outback Bowl over Penn State, and was ranked in the final AP Poll, finishing well above preseason expectations. The bowl win was Arkansas' first bowl victory on New Year's Day since beating the Texas Longhorns in the 2000 Cotton Bowl Classic. The bowl win was also Arkansas' first over a Big Ten opponent. Arkansas' victory over Texas on September 11 was the Razorbacks first win over the Longhorns in Fayetteville since 1981. Arkansas also, for the first time in school history, won all three rivalry trophy games in the same season, beating Texas A&M in Arlington, TX for the Southwest Classic Trophy, at LSU to win the Golden Boot Trophy, and Missouri in Fayetteville to win the Battle Line Rivalry Trophy. Arkansas also ended losing streaks of nine games versus Texas A&M, five games versus LSU, and five games versus Missouri.
