In their second and final season under head coach Frank Longman, the Razorbacks compiled a 4–4–1 record and were outscored by their opponents by a combined total of 110 to 73.[1] Although team lore indicates that the program adopted the "Razorbacks" nickname in 1910, the nickname was already in use during the 1907 season.[2]
