FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) – Bret Bielema didn’t sleep well Saturday night upon his return home following a third straight loss, dropping him to 11-18 in his three seasons as Arkansas coach.
It was likely a difficult slumber that night for fellow third-year coach Butch Jones at Tennessee.
One of the two is in store for continued restlessness following this weekend when the struggling Razorbacks (1-3, 0-1 Southeastern Conference) travel to Knoxville to face the Volunteers (2-2, 0-1).
What was thought by some in the preseason as a game between two SEC up-and-comers has morphed into something completely different entering Saturday – with two programs desperate to salvage what they can after equally disappointing starts to the season.
