Bret Bielema: 8

Arkansas might be the toughest team to figure out in the SEC. They’re good enough to play with anyone, but they can also lose to anybody. They’ve played Alabama as tough as anyone in the conference the last three seasons, but then they’ll turn around and get blown out 56-3 to Auburn and lose to someone like Missouri.

Bielema seems to have Arkansas on the rise, but at the same time, they’re 22-17 over the last three seasons. Another 7-6 season in 2017, and it could be the last for Bielema in Fayetteville.
