ESPN's Chris Low believes Arkansas may have 'best chance to unseat Alabama' in SEC West
ESPN’s Chris Low told Sports Talk with Bo Mattingly he believes Arkansas might have the best chance to unseat Alabama in the SEC West Thursday.
Low: Arkansas might be that team in the West that has the best chance to unseat the Crimson Tide.

Low also credited Arkansas’ ability to finish football games, which was something it struggled at in the past.
Low: I think this Arkansas team is better equipped to finish football games than they have been in the past.

He also told Mattingly he doesn’t expect Saturday’s game against Texas A&M to be a high scoring affair, which should play to the Razorbacks’ advantage. Texas A&M enters as the top-ranked offense in the SEC. Arkansas currently ranks No. 3 in total defense.
Low: I don’t see this Arkansas/A&M being a score-a-thon. … Because of that, Arkansas has as good a chance as any to win.

Arkansas finished third in the SEC West with a 8-5 (5-3 SEC) record, its best under head coach Bret Bielema. With a victory Saturday, the Razorbacks would have their first 4-0 start since 2003.
