On Saturday, the Arkansas Razorbacks will square off against the #8 ranked Alabama Crimson Tide in Bryant Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The Razorbacks have not had much success against the Tide in the last…well..decade. Alabama has won their last 8 games against Arkansas. Last year in Fayetteville, the Hogs got as close as you can to winning a game while simultaneously losing the game against Bama. The Hogs gained more yards, had fewer penalties, and forced more turnovers in a losing 14-13 effort. So close, yet no cigar for the Hogs yet again.
The Razorbacks have certainly improved week by week since dropping a head scratcher to Toledo in Little Rock, and then losing at home in NWA to Texas Tech.
