It was one of the most entertaining games of the week, if not the season. Arkansas gave Alabama everything the Crimson Tide wanted, but Heisman Trophy favorite Bryce Young’s record-setting game was too much in a 42-35 Alabama win.
Arkansas limited its penalties. It had big plays. It slowed the Tide’s running game. It had trickery. The Hogs did almost everything they needed to leave Tuscaloosa with a victory for the first time in almost 20 years, but Alabama is still Alabama.
Still, the Razorbacks have nothing with which to be ashamed. Let’s take a look behind the stats and see just why the game played the way it played.
