Bret Bielema has more confidence in his run game than you think

BRISTOL, Conn. -- Bret Bielema isn't worried about what his running game looks like to the outside world. To the burly, boastful coach, he's more excited than probably anyone else about the guys set to carry the rock for the Arkansas Razorbacks.

On paper, yes, people have every right to be skeptical about Arkansas' backfield. Bell cow backs Alex Collins and Jonathan Williams are gone. Kody Walker, a sixth-year senior who has been plagued by injuries, is coming off mid-spring foot surgery. Rawleigh Williams underwent neck surgery last year after the Auburn game and didn't go through contact this spring.
