The 1999 Arkansas Razorbacks football team represented the University of Arkansas during the 1999 NCAA Division I-A football season. Arkansas won the 2000 Cotton Bowl vs the Texas Longhorns on New Year's Day. It was the first college football game to kickoff in the 21st Century. It was also Arkansas' first bowl victory since the 1985 Holiday Bowl, and the Razorbacks first Cotton Bowl win since the 1976 Cotton Bowl Classic. Freshman running back Cedric Cobbs was named the Cotton Bowl offensive MVP, and senior defensive lineman D.J. Cooper was named the game's defensive MVP. Senior quarterback Clint Stoerner became the school's all-time leading passer in most passing categories. Stoerner also redeemed himself versus Tennessee, after fumbling away the ball late in the game in Knoxville in 199
