ESPN analyst Greg McElroy, in a recent episode of the "Always College Football" podcast, shared his insights on the upcoming Week 4 college football matchups. While discussing games like USC-Michigan and Oklahoma-Tennessee, McElroy made a bold prediction by foreseeing the Arkansas Razorbacks coming out victorious against the Auburn Tigers in what he anticipates to be a highly competitive weekend in college football.

McElroy highlighted Arkansas' potent run-first offense led by running back Ja'Quinden Jackson, who has been a standout performer with six touchdowns and 397 rushing yards in just 47 carries so far this season. The Razorbacks have also demonstrated a strong rushing game overall, leading the country with 15 touchdowns on the ground. McElroy emphasized that Arkansas excelling in the rushing department could give them the edge against Auburn.

The ESPN analyst also pointed out Arkansas' defensive strength, specifically mentioning Cameron Ball and Eric Gregory as key leaders on the defensive front. With their experience and skill, McElroy believes that Arkansas' defense could pose a significant challenge for Auburn's quarterback Hank Brown, who is relatively inexperienced. Reflecting on the matchup, McElroy expressed confidence in the Razorbacks' ability to control the trenches and emerge victorious at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
