LITTLE ROCK, AR --  Arkansas fans want to dress up for the Razorbacks' big date with Kansas State in Dallas and they don't want to wait!

"We want everybody to have one who wants one," said Bill Cook, owner of the T-shirt company Wild Wear.

Cook says as soon as the bowl assignments came in, the phones started ringing. He then started printing. 

"It was a lot of talk about the Capital One Bowl, but we were hoping it would be the Cotton Bowl. We were ready to print them," said Cook. 

Designers set up the logo and run it through a heater. By the time you chant "Woo Pig Sooie" a couple of times, it's ready!

"These aren't coming off line from Egypt or whatever. That's what we're proud of -- being a local vendor, supporting the Hogs, and we want the people in the state to do the same," said Cook.

The bowl selection is a perfect end to a spectacular season. The Razorbacks' only losses came at the hands of the highest ranked teams.  Cook looks forward to that big game.

"We're saving the big stuff for when we play in the national championship game. That will come one of these days," said Cook.
