‘Tank’ set to roll home for Liberty

Tenarius Wright wanted Arkansas to beat LSU in the regularseason finale as bad as any of his fellow Razorbacks. A victory in that game would have extended Arkansas’ winning streak to five games and sent the Hogs to either the Capital One or Cotton bowls, the two most prestigious destinations for an SEC West team outside of a Bowl Championship Series berth.

Liberty Bowl representatives visited Fayetteville to announce the Hogs had sold out their allotment of 25,500 tickets to the Jan. 2 game. Steve Ehrhart, the bowl's executive director, and Coach Bobby Petrino were recognized along with the entire football team at halftime of Arkansas' game with Stephen F. Austin.
