The Crimson Tide offense has rushed for 940 yards total and 7.3 yards per carry through four games. Jase McClellan has led the way with 245 yards and two touchdowns while averaging 8.4 yards per carry. Jahmyr Gibbs has been a weapon in both the rushing and passing game with 359 total yards and three touchdowns.
On defense, Alabama has allowed just 7.25 points and 201.25 yards per game. The pass rush has recorded 12 sacks so far this season, but the defense has only forced one turnover so far this season. Will Anderson Jr. has played well as expected with 20 total tackles and 4.5 sacks to lead the way.

On defense, the Razorbacks have allowed some points this season giving up 25.5 points and 401.75 yards per game. The defense has generated a good pass rush though with 20 sacks already this season.
Drew Sanders has recorded 5.5 sacks while Jordan Domineck has gotten 4.5 sacks. The defense has also forced five turnovers this season.
A big factor in this game will be the Arkansas defense, the offense has shown that they can score but the defense has struggled. Against an impressive Alabama offense, the Razorbacks’ defense will need to get stops and be able to get off the field.
