Throwback Thursday: The wild finish in 2007 that started Alabama’s winning streak over Arkansas

In a couple of days, Nick Saban and the Alabama Crimson Tide will look to put together their 17th straight win over the Arkansas Razorbacks when the Hogs travel to Tuscaloosa this Saturday.

As hard as it is to believe, the Crimson Tide have not lost to the Razorbacks under the leadership of Coach Saban who first arrived in 2007.

So how did this incredible winning streak get started for Alabama? On this edition of Throwback Thursday, we are going to show you the incredible finish between Alabama and Arkansas from Coach Saban’s inaugural season in Tuscaloosa before he became the G.O.A.T.

With time running down in the fourth quarter, Crimson Tide quarterback John Parker Wilson would connect with wide receiver Matt Caddell for a 3-yard touchdown pass to give Alabama the 41-38 victory over the Hogs.

Take a look!

While this season’s version of the matchup is not likely to provide as much drama and action, it’s always fun when the Tide takes on the Razorbacks.
