FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — When Arkansas last hosted Texas for a matchup its new starting quarterback was beginning his career as a true freshman with Boise State. He didn’t play for the Broncos in 2021 as he redshirted after coming in from Lewisville High School in Texas.
Green may not have seen the game live on TV or experienced the rivalry in person. That doesn’t mean he hasn’t heard about it being one of the best atmospheres in Razorback Stadium history.
“It’s pretty cool just to be in that atmosphere of Texas versus Arkansas,” Green said. “Everybody talks about the game when the [Longhorns] came here and [Razorbacks fans] rushed the field and all that. Just the passion both fanbases have.
“That is one of the reasons why I came to Arkansas is just the passion, when Arkansas football is on, everybody in the state is watching.”
For Green, playing for Arkansas is his chance to shine at the highest level of college football. He is in the SEC which has produced the most NFL draft picks. The league also has more players currently on rosters than any other
