The 1997 Arkansas Razorbacks football team was an American football team that represented the University of Arkansas as a member of the Western Division of the Southeastern Conference during the 1997 NCAA Division I-A football season. In their fifth and final year under head coach Danny Ford, the team compiled a 4–7 record, with a conference record of 2–6, and finished fifth in the Western Division (ahead of Alabama based upon a 17-16 victory at Tuscaloosa).[1]
The day after a season ending loss to rival LSU, Ford was fired by athletic director Frank Broyles following four non-winning seasons out of five and a 25-31-1 overall worksheet. Houston Nutt, then the head coach at Boise State, as well as a former Razorback player and assistant coach, succeeded Ford.
