FAYETTEVILLE — After a lackluster performance against Kentucky, Alabama rolled into Razorback Stadium with its A game. The Crimson Tide looked stronger with its run game and its pass rush than it has through most of this season. The Crimson Tide's shredding of the edge of Arkansas' defense was impressive from Alabama's point of view, distressing for the Razorbacks. Arkansas' lack of strength on its offensive line was exposed and its defensive line was largely stymied by a young Alabama front.
I kept Arkansas in my top 25 at No. 22, but the Hogs are hanging on by a thread.
