Sam Pittman understands that Arkansas put up quite a fight despite the 42-35 loss to Alabama.
But he liked what he saw in his team not giving up, and putting up a fight against the No. 2 team in the country on the road. Pittman praised KJ Jefferson’s performance, and said Alabama QB Bryce Young should be in the Heisman Trophy conversation.
Here’s a sampling of his comments:
Pittman on what he said to guys in locker room: Proud of football team. Would be hard not to be. Stayed in the game and had a chance to win.
Matched the physicality of what Bama is known for.
The days of getting teeth kicked in are over.
