‘A True Rivalry!’ Texas Coach Steve Sarkisian Discusses the Intensity of the Arkansas Matchup

A comment from Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian elicited a surprising response from Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman, catching fans off guard.

The Texas Longhorns are known for their confidence as they join the Southeastern Conference this year, seemingly gaining more adversaries than they had in the Big 12.

Following Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian’s remark about the Arkansas Razorbacks at SEC Media Days on Thursday, a long-dormant rivalry is set to reignite.

“I jokingly say this, but sometimes it feels like when you go to Arkansas, they hate Texas more than they like themselves,” Sarkisian remarked. “That’s a genuine rivalry.”

Fans from both teams had strong reactions, and Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman soon responded with a surprising statement to the media.
