The college football nation will be watching this week to see if Arkansas can do anything to knock Bama off its stride in Fayetteville Saturday at 2:30 CT. Alabama will be on CBS’s national broadcast for the first of many times this year. Even if Arkansas doesn’t win, if they can expose some potential weakness in the Tide for future opponents to try would be helpful.
So, can Ryan Mallet, in a sophisticated Bobby Petrino passing system give the Alabama defense trouble. The Tide secondary is young and the front seven of Bama’s defense hasn’t yet kept quarterbacks on the run as much as it did last year. So, the big question will likely not be whether Alabama is a better team than Arkansas, but whether the Alabama defense of 2010 is as good as the Alabama defense of 2009.
