Alabama football vs Arkansas: TV Channel Schedule, Start Time, Scores and Highlights
The Alabama Crimson Tide take on the Arkansas Razorbacks in one of the college football games on Saturday at 6:00 PM ET at the Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium, Fayetteville, AR.
After losing to the Mississippi State 23-17 last Saturday, the Crimson Tide wants to storm back in today’s match. The Crimson Tide dropped from No. 2 into No. 7 in the AP Rankings because of the defeat.
”It’s like we were scared to lose,” fullback Jalston Fowler said. ”Everybody wasn’t playing their A-Game. They were just `Oh, if we escape with a win we’ll be all right.”’
Because of the defeat, the Alabama Crimson Tide have to win all their remaining games to stay contention in the SEC West and even to get into the college football playoff.
Coach Nick Saban understands that his team has to be more aggressive and to avoid turnovers, the way their last two possessions ended in a fumble and interception last Saturday.
Offensively, Alabama averages 314.2 yards in passing and 240.4 in rushing. Defensively, Alabama yields 200.8 yards in passing and 64 yards in rushing.
Arkansas (3-2) is the best improved team in the SEC West. The Razorbacks averages 44.6 points per game, tied for seventh in the FBS. With the powerful offensive juggernaut, it is likely that the Razorbacks will have a shootout with the Crimson Tide.
The Razorbacks want to get back into winning after losing the Aggies, 35-28 in OT, on September 27. They allowed Kenny Hill to have 386 yards and a whopping 523 yards to the entire Aggies offense.
For the Razorbacks to have a chance in winning this game, the defense must be strong. They have to limit the Tide in doing what they love to do in the offense.
”I think Alabama is a tough football team coming off a win or a loss,” Arkansas coach Bret Bielema said. ”I did the research as well and realized they had not lost two conference games back to back since (Saban’s) first year.
