Some wins don’t feel quite like wins, and I don’t think Bret Bielema feels great about Arkansas football’s 39-38 victory over Coastal Carolina

Arkansas barely hung on to beat Coastal Carolina Universty and Bret Bielema is feeling the heat. At least he should be by, athletic director, Jeff Long but more on that later.

It was a long night for Arkansas fans. Their opponent was a team that is in their first year of FBS play and came into Fayetteville with one win and seven losses.

For those of you who have never read one of my post game takeaways, allow me to explain something. I will always start by giving a team credit where credit is due. It’s something I take pride in as many times, you only hear about the bigger name “falling” and that’s it.

Tonight, I am probably one of the few people about to give this little FBS rookie team a pat on the back, not for merely being present as the SEC team fell but instead for playing some great football. Yes, they lost but let me get started on these three takeaways and I’ll explain.
