Unless Arkansas gets no running game and falls behind early. One dimensional teams have gotten themselves in to a lot of trouble in the past with Nick Saban's defenses. As long as the corners can be put on an island, which they couldn't do last year, and Alabama can shut down the running game to pretty much nothing, the defense could have a free-for-all on the QB.
That's fair. But it's also a similar problem bama could have. Arkansas will just stack the box, with an already strong front 7, and force bama to throw. Do you think that'll fair well with what you've seen thus far from the passing attack?

I think Alabama has been pretty basic on offense thus far. We haven't even used some formations that were staples the past two years. Plus, I think the offensive line is beginning to gel. A.J. moves well in the pocket too. The only two sacks thus far were when Sims was in. And save me the "it's Penn State and Kent State" lines. The OL gave up way too many QBHs and sacks in 2010. Even to the most unlikely of opponents. The pass protection already looks better to me.
