The Razorbacks' defense put up a formidable effort with five sacks and seven quarterback hits. Their punting unit was also noteworthy; they punted seven times for a total of 377 yards, including one that soared to an impressive distance of 70 yards and four that landed inside the 20-yard line. On offense, Arkansas's passing game resulted in two touchdowns and amassed a total of 150 yards through the air with an average gain per play of about four yards. Their ground attack added another dimension as they rushed for 100 yards over the course of the game.


Arkansas's special teams contributed significantly as well; their field goal unit was perfect on the day, converting both attempts including one from beyond fifty yards out. The kicking team ensured all five kickoffs resulted in touchbacks, preventing any return yardage by Alabama.


Despite these efforts, it was not enough to secure victory over Alabama. The home team managed to keep possession for just under half of the game time and capitalized on scoring opportunities when presented.


Looking ahead after this hard-fought battle, fans can anticipate another exciting matchup as the Arkansas Razorbacks will host Mississippi State Bulldogs at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville on October 21st at 11:00 AM local time (4:00 PM GMT). This upcoming contest will be broadcasted live on ESPN for supporters unable to attend in person.
