Arkansas begins a critical season for coach Sam Pittman when the Razorbacks meet Alabama A&M on Saturday afternoon at Fayetteville, Ark.

Arkansas hasn't had a winning mark in Southeastern Conference play in five seasons under Pittman, a former Georgia assistant coach. So coming off last year's 7-6 overall record, the Razorbacks are looking to make strides.

"During camp, I think we've done everything as a staff that we wanted to get accomplished," Pittman said. "Each year, you've got to get better."

The Alabama A&M program is at a different stage with the Football Championship Subdivision team under first-year coach Sam Shade. The Bulldogs were 6-6 last season.

This will be the first-ever meeting between the teams.
