For the 2nd time, the Territorial Cup battle also featured The Belt as the 5-5 Arizona Wildcats of coach Dick Tomey faced the 6-4 Arizona State Sun Devils of coach Bruce Snyder.

The teams traded scores throughout the game & eventually went to triple-overtime before Arkansas’ CB Matterral Richardson intercepted a 2-point conversion pass attempt to save a 50-48 Razorbacks win to claim their first Belt reign in the second highest scoring game to date in Belt history.
