'The Boot' Trophy on Display Today in Arkansas Union
Boot Trophy on display for photos today.
Razorback fans, grab your cameras and head to the Arkansas Union! The legendary "Golden Boot" trophy, won by your No. 21-ranked Arkansas Razorbacks, will be on display in the Arkansas Union Living Room from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today, Nov. 17. Patrons are welcome to come take their photos with the trophy.
The Razorbacks won the 67th meeting against LSU this past Saturday in Baton Rouge, outscoring the Tigers 16-13 in overtime on the toe of Cam Little. The Golden Boot trophy, which began exchanging schools in 1996, is approximately four feet tall and plated in 24-karat gold, and represents the states of Arkansas and Louisiana. Arkansas' last time owning "The Boot" was in 2015, when Arkansas defeated No. 9 LSU, 31-14, also in Baton Rouge.
The win over LSU brings Arkansas to 7-3 on the season, the most games won since the 2016 season. The Razorbacks will travel to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, this weekend to take on the No. 2-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide before concluding the season at home on Nov. 26 against the Missouri Tigers.
Guests are reminded to wear their masks inside the Arkansas Union around other people, and extra masks are always available at the Union Information Desk.
