CLAY HENRY, HAWGS ILLUSTRATED The bounce-back effect should be discounted this week. Alabama is much better than South Carolina. This is a year when there is a huge gap between the Tide and everyone else in the SEC. Alabama is the best in the trenches. Alabama, 48-10.
MATT JONES, WHOLE HOG SPORTS No need to overanalyze. Alabama should be able to name its score, although I don’t think it will be quite like the Vanderbilt or Ole Miss blowouts. Alabama, 49-17.
HARRY KING, HAWGS ILLUSTRATED The margin will be even worse if the Razorbacks are again 4-0 in turnovers. Alabama, 35-7.
BO MATTINGLY, SPORTS TALK WITH BO Arkansas did the best it could to lure Alabama to sleep, but it won’t work. Alabama, 52-7
DUDLEY E. DAWSON, HAWGS ILLUSTRATED It’s going to be a tough two weeks for Arkansas. There are so many questions and so few answers. Alabama, 59-21.
TOMMY CRAFT, ESPN ARKANSAS Hard to feel like the Razorback program is in a position to even be close this week, much less to contend. Alabama, 55-3.
BART POHLMAN, SPORTS TALK WITH BO Arkansas has no chance against Alabama based on what we’ve seen. None. Zero. Zilch. Zip. Alabama, 49-10.
CHIP SOUZA, NWA DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE
It’s been a long time since Arkansas went into a game with virtually no one giving them a chance. I remember in 2004, the Hogs faced a similar situation at Texas. Matt Jones was a beast that day and Arkansas stunned everyone by trouncing the Horns. OK, that won’t happen today. Alabama 52-17.
