Arkansas feels this Alabama offensive weapon is valuable to the Tide in all aspects

 Sam Pittman, Arkansas’ head football coach,  commented on Alabama tight end, Amari Niblack, during his Wednesday press conference.

Niblack has been Alabama’s most productive tight end this season. The Florida product has 170 receiving yards, eight receptions and two touchdowns on the season.

Pittman feels the Razorbacks must be very aggressive going against Alabama Saturday and stopping Niblack is another thing they must do. 

“When you look at them, the thing that is surprising is that they are a dominant 12-personnel team,” said Pittman. “They look like 10 or 11 personnel, but they like to play two tight ends. Amari Niblack is a big part of that. He’s a very, very good player. He is a big target for them. He can do everything. He’s very, very valuable to their team. He can have some matchup problems for us. We can’t just do one or two things in the game. We have to be very aggressive. We have to be able to play drop eight and stop the run. He is valuable to them in all aspects of the game. He is a really good football player.”
