When Auburn football faced the Arkansas Razorbacks in 2020, it didn’t exactly go according to plan. No one thought that the Tigers were going to be losing late into the fourth quarter, but that’s exactly what happened.

And just when the Arkansas fans thought the game was won, there was some Bo Nix tomfoolery and to this day, they have still not let it go. Was it a fumble or a spike? Was Arkansas supposed to have possession of the ball?

The answers to those questions will be very different depending on who you ask, and although Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman insisted that the “revenge factor” is not the biggest focus heading into this game, the team’s hype video suggests differently:

It’s hard to say whether this video got to the Arkansas fan base or Auburn football Twitter more quickly. While Razorbacks fans hold the opinion that their team lost due to a missed call by the officials, Tiger fans are happy to remind them that at the end of the day, the win still went to Auburn:

Beating the #17 Razorbacks on the road would be a major win for the unranked Tigers, who still have to face off against three more ranked opponents before December.
