In the South party demographics are usually flipped, since many old people still remember the Dixiecrat era or even the New Deal and as such are reflexively Democratic. It's the youngins in the South, especially middle-aged people, who have driven the Republican dominance there as Democratic Boomers start to die off. If I do recall, Pryor won the 65+ demographic or came close even while being demolished overall, so that should be a good indication of why this seems different from the norm.
