Losing gracefully isn't taught in second-tier programs. See Arkansas, Cincinnati, et al.

Can't handle the truth?
Truth I'm ok with, Harry not so much. I didn't bother reading it. If it's the truth his writing has done a 180 overnight

King makes his points.

That said I think he overlooked a major reason Arkansas is struggling late in games:  Arkansas still does not have enough top notch linemen in depth to sustain the running game against the better SEC defenses.  This was made worse on against Bama by the absence of Ragnow.

One other thing to consider:  Bielema's approach is weighted towards scoring early, not late and it's the lost opportunities in the first half that prevent taking control of the game and forcing the opponent's offense out of their game plan.

The measuring stick will be how often and by how much Arkansas increases leads at half and how many first downs are racked up playing keep away in the 2nd half.  As for the 4th quarter rally that will be needed now and then the hard truth is that may have to wait till we have a little more mobile QB with the arm to get over stacked defense.

In the meantime tomorrow is another opportunity to play CBB's game against an opponent not unlike many his teams pounded in the B1G.
