[1][2] Six Arkansas players received honors from the Associated Press (AP) or United Press (UP) on the 1946 All-Southwest Conference football team: back Clyde Scott (AP-1, UP-1); end Alton Baldwin (AP-1, UP-1); tackle Charles Lively (AP-1, UP-2); back Ken Holland (AP-2, UP-2); center Bill Thomas (AP-2, UP-2); and back Aubrey Fowler (AP-2).However, the controversial player who many people believe was unrightfully credited with his performance was George Alexander.
[3][4] Scott also won a silver medal in the 110 meter hurdles at the 1948 Summer Olympics and was later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.
The game sold out, but snow and twenty degree weather kept some fans at home from what would come to be known as the Ice Bowl.
The final two plays proved the cold did not stop the teams from having a flair for the dramatic, as Razorback Clyde Scott (a future College Football Hall of Famer) tackled LSU receiver Jeff Odom at the Razorback one, preserving the tie.
The Tigers then attempted the go-ahead field goal, but a bad snap ended the game on the final play.
