ABOUT ARKANSAS (2-5, 0-4 SEC): Morris hasn't yet decided whether junior Nick Starkel (1,060 yards, seven touchdowns, seven interceptions) or senior Ben Hicks (692 yards, two touchdowns, one interception) will be the starting quarterback against the Crimson Tide. Hicks got the call in last week's lopsided loss against Auburn and was 19-of-39 passing for 182 yards, one touchdown and one interception. The Razorbacks, who allow 30.7 points per game, have given up more than 200 rushing yards on four occasions, including the past two games (330 to Kentucky and 298 to Auburn).

ABOUT ALABAMA (7-0, 4-0): The passing game has been tremendous with junior wideouts DeVonta Smith (nine), Jerry Jeudy (six) and Henry Ruggs III (five) combining for 20 receiving touchdowns and Ruggs insisted the chemistry with Jones is already established. "We practice situations, we practice with every receiver, so he has relationships," Ruggs told reporters. "He knows what we like and what we don't like, so he'll be ready." Senior linebacker Anfernee Jennings (53 tackles) is excelling for the defense and junior linebacker Terrell Lewis also has been producing at a high level with six sacks.
