The Arkansas Razorbacks’ 2015 season just keeps getting worse. After Bret Bielema’s ball club was handed a helping dose of karma last Saturday after a loss at the hands of Toledo, the team welcomed in Kliff Kingsbury’s Texas Tech Red Raiders.
Things didn’t go their way again as the Raiders threw all over the field and won the game, 35-24.
Following the game, Kingsbury called the game an “ass-kicking” and then took a shot at Bielema for his comments on the Raiders’ air raid offense.
Bielema responded on Monday.
Bielema on Kingsbury remarks: If that makes him feel better, then God bless him.

Bielema: "If that was an ass-kicking, I’d love to know what last year was."

Bielema: If we start digging into what coaches say at clinics for motivation, it’s going to be a weird world.

It seems to me that Bielema just can’t stay out of the media. Whether it’s criticizing a team’s strength of schedule or their offense, he just loves to run his mouth.
Maybe this week he will get his head out of his butt and focus on the task at hand. The team plays Texas A&M and one of the best quarterbacks in the SEC, Kyle Allen, at AT&T Stadium on Saturday.
If Bielema gets his head on straight and focuses on the game, they may be able to pull the upset. Fat chance, but anything is possible I guess.
