The #2 Crimson Tide have their biggest test of the season this week as they travel to Fayetteville to take on the #20 Razorbacks. Arkansas lost in Arlington to Texas A&M last week, 23-21, in heartbreaking fashion. The Razorbacks now head back home to face Bryce Young and Alabama. Can Arkansas hand Alabama their first loss? Below are the Mike Farrell Sports Staff Picks for this week-five matchup.
Mike Farrell- Alabama
Alabama wins this one, but Arkansas gives the Tide trouble in a single digits game.
Cory Lemer- Alabama
Alabama will win this weekend on the road. While the Tide has struggled recently in road games, the Arkansas defense has struggled.
Matt Perkins- Alabama
Alabama has too much firepower. A big day for Cameron Latu leads to an Alabama win, but Arkansas covers 38-24.
Timothy Bailey- Alabama
Listen, man, it’s Alabama.

The elephants will stop Arkansas into pig sooie, respectfully. Tide 49-21.

Arkansas has the worst pass defense in the country. Bryce Young will have a field day.
