At the half, No. 1 Alabama leads Arkansas 24-0 in Fayetteville.
With Tyler Wilson on the bench, Arkansas backup quarterback Brandon Allen has thrown two interceptions in the first half helping Alabama race out to another huge, first-half lead for the third consecutive game.
Alabama's last score before the half came on a 1-yard touchdown run by Eddie Lacy, his second of the day, putting the Crimson Tide on top 24-0. The run was setup by the defense when HaHa Clinton-Dix intercepted Arkansas's Brandon Allen and returned it to the Razorback's 3-yard line.
AJ McCarron has one touchdown pass, connecting with freshman Amari Cooper for a 20-yard score.
Kicker Cade Foster has booted a 51-yard field goal and missed making a 52-yarder by a couple inches. Also, all five of his kickoffs have gone into the endzone for touchbacks.
Lacy's first score was a 5-yard rumble over three Razorback defenders.
On defense, Vinnie Sunseri picked off his first pass of the year.
