Comments
There’s a reason Alabama is No. 1 in just about every poll or rating service in existence. They have an explosive offense and a very solid, yet not normal Alabama standards defense. Arkansas has shown significant improvement this season under first-year head coach Sam Pittman. I think the Razorbacks, with their gifted veteran quarterback, Feleipe Franks, will be able to put some points on the board but it won’t be enough to keep up with that Crimson Tide offense.
