The Razorbacks are 2-4 entering the matchup; however, it has been in a few close games.
Arkansas had a chance to defeat Mississippi, LSU, and Texas A&M, but it could not sustain. Sam Pittman, head coach of the Razorbacks, has talent on both sides of the ball — including KJ Jefferson (quarterback) and Raheim “Rocket” Sanders (running back). Alabama is coming off an emotional victory over the Aggies at Kyle Field. The Tide has control of the SEC West, but it still has LSU and Auburn remaining on its schedule from that side. Alabama refuses to take Arkansas lighly, but the team did enjoy a nice hog before the Arkansas game. Jaylen Key, a defensive back, posted a video to his Instagram story of a whole pig being cooked for the team. He captioned the video, “Just another day in Tuscaloosa.” Key has been impactful as a transfer from UAB.
