Three things to look for:

    1. Tyler Will He? Arkansas is expected to play without star QB Tyler Wilson (head injury) but says that will be a game-time decision. The Razorbacks will be hurting if he’s still hurting. Redshirt freshman Brandon Allen didn’t look good last week playing in the second half of a stunning 34-31 loss to Louisiana-Monroe.
    2. On the run. Alabama will try to run with abandon and will try to get Arkansas to abandon the run and make the Razorbacks one-dimensional. RB Knile Davis becomes the key Arkansas player if Wilson doesn’t play. On defense, the Arkansas front looks stronger than the secondary, but Alabama will go for balance on offense, at least in the first half.
    3. Body guards. Alabama allowed six sacks last week. It must improve today. Arkansas can expect pass-rushing tricks from Nick Saban’s defense...
