Arkansas vs Kentucky

Most are saying this will be a very high scoring affair; however, I think the defenses will stiffen up and play today. There will be a lot of scoring but the Hogs clock domination (not to be confused with clock management) will prove to be the winning edge in this game. Arkansas 38, Kentucky 31.

Big Play: Felix Jones will bust a long run 60+ yards. Crosby Tuck? No TD but perhaps two catches.

Lousy Play: Wide receivers and the defensive secondary.

Arkansas vs Alabama Prediction

It's going to be ugly. I think that both defenses will be exploited at various times. Alabama's defensive will be shook by the lightening and thunder tandem of McFadden and Jones. The Arkansas defense will look bad against the passing attack that Alabama will bring. Make no mistake, Saban will throw it deep and often even if all the analysts say that Alabama will like to play smash-mouth football. Against Vandy last week, Alabama did throw long and deep ... those will be big gains against the Hogs secondary. However, Arkansas proves to be a little too much and the honeymoon for Saban ends with a score of 30 to 28.

Big play: Peyton Hillis will run for a TD and/or return a punt that will change the game.

Lousy play: Casey Dick and the receivers.
