History of the Razorback The University of Arkansas’ mascot was originally a cardinal, based on the cardinal red school color. After the 16-0 win over Louisiana State Football, Coach Bezdek made the first statement comparing his players to, “a wild band of Razorback hogs.” The following year the student body voted to change the school mascot from the cardinal to the razorback.
