The No. 11 Alabama Crimson Tide came away with a win on Saturday over the Arkansas Razorbacks. So why does everyone feel like homecoming ended in a loss?

Let's dive in a break down the game from Saturday on the Monday edition of "The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral". 

First, we give credit to BamaCentral's Austin Hannon for being all over the prediction from the Football Friday episode. Alabama jumped out to a lead in the game but really didn't play well against a team that's still winless in the SEC this season. 

Was Saturday's performance about Arkansas being bad, or Alabama being good? We discuss what we saw out of Crimson Tide quarterback Jalen Milroe as his performance was up and down. 

The Alabama offense clearly has issues along its offensive line as they gave up five sacks on the day, completely derailing the Tide's chances of dominating throughout four quarters of the game. 

Gaither went through each position group on offense and gave grades from this past weekend's game. How would you grade the offensive line, running backs, wide receivers and quarterback?

Two major milestones were achieved this past weekend as Will Reichard became the SEC's all-time leader in points and Nick Saban achieved his 200th win at Alabama, but neither were really celebrated due to the Tide's lackluster performance.

The show concludes with thoughts about the rest of the SEC as college football is officially through the halfway point in the season.
