From the outset, the Alabama Crimson Tide set the tone for what would become a one-sided affair. The offense was unstoppable as they amassed a total of 443 yards throughout the game. A significant contribution came from their rushing efforts which accounted for 216 yards on the ground and included an impressive longest run that spanned 80 yards resulting in one of their six rushing touchdowns.


The defense was equally formidable; they managed to sack Arkansas quarterbacks eight times for a loss of 49 yards and forced three fumbles, recovering all three to halt any momentum that the Razorbacks attempted to build. In addition to stifling defense, special teams also made headlines with an electrifying punt return touchdown that covered 84 yards.

Alabama's passing game was efficient as well; completing nearly 82 percent of pass attempts for a total gain of 227 yards through air without conceding any interceptions or sacks. This aerial attack complemented their ground game and contributed significantly towards achieving thirteen first downs via passing plays.


Special mention must be made about Alabama's red zone efficiency where they capitalized on five out of six opportunities presented to them – showcasing effective play execution when it mattered most. Their only field goal attempt from within forty-nine yards sailed through uprights adding another three points to their tally.
