Instant analysis: Arkansas

HOOVER, Ala. — Bret Bielema has a lot of momentum from a late-season surge and a brutal schedule on the horizon.

He was upbeat Wednesday talking about his team, about how he doesn’t recruit players with offensive Twitter handles and about the foundation for building this program. Arkansas finished 7-6 last year, winning three of its last four.

“7-6 is not a landing point,” Bielema said. “It’s a launching point.”

Arkansas has become Wisconsin South with a bruising running game and a salty defense.

But the Razorbacks have one of the SEC’s toughest schedule, especially on the road.
