How mobile is Allen? Is he considered dual threat?

He can run. But I wouldn't consider him dual threat. He is more of a pocket passer and making throws on the run type.

isn't that the truth!

re op: austin is good, receivers are good, our oline has left much to be desired, as has our special teams (kicker for sure) and our defense has been, i hate to say, disappointing but they kinda have. we gon get killed.

If Arky's receivers can get open in man coverage and if Allen is accurate on Saturday, then Arky has a decent chance. I look for Bama to try and run in between the tackles right at Arky, and then roll Hurts out with some forms of pass, run options. And of course, a lot mis direction and jet sweeps.

Our biggest problem is OL. If they would perform even at an average clip we would have a real shot at this game especially at home, but since our OL is awful, and I mean awful, we really don't have a prayer unless Alabama completely collapses and does something like turn the ball over 3 or 4 times which can happen but is highly unlikely.

That's exactly what I'd do with a freshman QB behind your line. Right when the D gets set with the run, drop the big play. That's kind of Lane's signature.

I think we're going to throw the ball to open the run. We are loaded with possession and big play receivers and Austin is really really good. Oline has to keep him upright, that's the key on offense. Our run offense will be solid if we establish the pass.

Our D is fine we just let two running QBs get us on scrambles for big yards, hopefully they've learned from mistakes. Straight up against a tailback we're solid and tough with a strong 2 deep dline, our lbs are very seasoned and solid. Our secondary has really improved 3 pic 6's this year and really have played steller except for when we had a backup fall down and allow A&M that 90 yd td, without that they did nothing in the passing game.

Special teams we're just ok hopefully we don't give one up here.

Personally this game reminds me alot of the last two, slugfest with neither really establishing anything on offense going to come down who makes a play when it counts.

back up qb quit on us, I think Kiffen might be thinking "let running backs run", this is the first of a tough three game stretch. it might not be wise to run the qb too much

run options


If Saban and Kiffin have done their homework, which we all know they did. There is going to be a lot of this Saturday. Hopefully we are more prepared for it

You would've thought we wouldn't run the same dumb defensive alignment of safetys split wide and no d tackles in the a gap after Kenny hill gashes up the gut all night but as you saw 2 weeks ago that didn't happen either

I agree with your assessment.

This will be a slugfest and a low scoring game (probably in the 20's for each team.)

Bama is good on D as always but I think our D is made to take on a team like Bama. Bama's O is not a pushover at all and Hurts is a great talent but he is still a Freshman and is likely to make a mistake or two.

Turnovers will be the key to this game.

If Arkansas turns the ball over 2 times or more, we will get beat by a couple of scores.

If Bama turns it over 2 times or more, it will go down to the wire.

If that's the plan we've got a chance, we're stout up the middle and have the speed on the ends. Where we have failed for two years is QB scrambles when we get pressure, our spy has allowed some big plays.

I agree that the defensive alignment was bad but our players also took some bad angles

Yeah ramirez could've stopped both of those plays to about a 20 yard gain, which still isn't good but alot better than 60 yard scores

This is what Danielson says every time Bama plays on CBS. He calls it his "blueprint on how to beat the Bama defense"

Exactly, which is still bad but we have a chance to only allow fgs on those drives.

It's just frustrating to see it happen multiple times because after the 1st you'd think the coaches would realize we don't have the talent to stop them from running that play if we're in whatever alignment that us so maybe we should change something up.
