No. 1 Alabama (-7) at No. 10 Arkansas \u2013 Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS<\/p>\n

Are the Razorbacks (3-0, 1-1 ATS) for real? They sure look like it. Arkansas is coming off an impressive 31-24 victory in Georgia. Ryan Mallet racked up some brilliant Heisman-worthy highlights; he tossed three touchdown passes, including a 40-yard game winner with 15 seconds remaining. Surprisingly, the defense has been just as good. Expected to be an Achilles\u2019 heel in 2010, the \u201cD\u201d has arguably been the best in the SEC. Arkansas has come up with big play after big play, particularly when it comes to rushing the passer (the Razorbacks lead the SEC in sacks per game at 4.0).<\/p>\n

Alabama looks like a runaway freight train. Some fans were worried when it was announced Heisman winner Mark Ingram would miss the first few games of the season. The Tide simply plugged in more talent and continued thrashing opponents on the ground. Ingram made his 2010 debut last week and ripped off a 48 yard run on his first carry; he finished with 151 yards and two touchdowns on just nine carries, proving he\u2019s in mid-season form. On the other side of the ball, Bama needs to tighten up against the run after allowing some lackluster competition a little breathing room.<\/p>\n

Thankfully for Crimson Tide fans, Arkansas\u2019 bread and butter is the pass. The Razorbacks are about to run into a buzzsaw; Bama crushed them 35-7 last year and 49-14 the year before. Arkansas wasn\u2019t supposed to be this good on defense, and now we\u2019ll find out if it\u2019s legit. Until we do, you\u2019re safer picking Alabama to continue its dominance.<\/p>\n
