Here are five takeaways from Saturday's Alabama-Arkansas game at Bryant-Denny Stadium.
The win moved The Crimson Tide’s record to 6-1 on the season, 4-0 in SEC play. Even though the final score worked in their favor, it wasn’t pretty for much of the way.Saturday’s game started slow. On their first few drives, neither team was able to make much of an impact.
With Alabama down 6-0 following two long Razorback field goals, Milroe dropped back and dropped a dime off his back foot, finding Prentice for a 79-yard score. Perhaps demonstrating how the game had been going, the drive went down as a 75-yarder, due to a prior fumbled snap losing four yards. On the next drive, Milroe looked long again and found Jermaine Burton downfield for a 44-yard gain. Facing a third-and-16 later in the drive, a 25-yard throw to Ja’Corey Brooks kept the chains moving.
He showed it on Saturday. Several times, multiple Alabama players had a hold on Jefferson, but he stayed up and fighting until the bitter end. Still, Alabama had the defensive ability to get it done. It wasn’t even the usual suspects always chasing the passer, with players like Jah-Marien Latham, Terrion Arnold and Trezman Marshall all getting sacks.It’s been a year full of uncharacteristically bad performances from Alabama’s offensive line. Throughout the season, Milroe has been running for his life and the running backs haven’t had much room to operate.
