FAYETTEVILLE — Bret Bielema sat on the plane ride home following a 27-14 loss at Alabama last week and considered the fallout.
"I spent a lot of time flying back from Alabama as a 2-4 coach, saying 'How do I spin this?'" Bielema said. "The bottom line, and the truth, really comes down to what you're made of and what you're about."
What Bielema was about following the loss was the time-honored "one game at a time" coaching script with himself, his coaches and players.
His point was to remind everyone of how important it is for the Razorbacks (2-4, 1-2 Southeastern Conference) to begin the second half of their season with a win when they host Auburn (4-2, 1-2) on Saturday.
