The last time Arkansas knocked off Alabama, Nick Saban was coaching the Miami Dolphins.
Since his arrival, Arkansas has lost 15 straight to its SEC West Division rival, the Hogs’ longest mark against any opponent. The 20th-ranked Razorbacks will get another crack at ending the streak Saturday when they host No. 2 Alabama.
“I see how they lost,” Saban said. “I’m sure they’re very disappointed. I’m sure they’ll be upset with the way the game ended.” Alabama quarterback Bryce Young broke a 52-year-old school record by passing for 559 yards against the Razorbacks last year. He faces an Arkansas squad that has given up the sixth-most passing yards per game in the FBS.
Arkansas linebacker Drew Sanders transferred from Alabama in the offseason and has made his presence felt with the Hogs in tackles for loss , sacks and forced fumbles through four games. Sanders also ranks second in total tackles with 31.
