Editor’s Note: Arkansas coach Bret Bielema since told reporters that he did not flash a Horns down sign, claiming the viral image was doctored in Photoshop:
Ran into Bret Bielema at practice and he says he did not do the "horns down" in photo with Charlie Strong. Appears to have been photoshopped

Arkansas doesn’t take the field against Texas until Dec. 29, but it appears another type of game has already begun thanks to Bret Bielema. The Hogs’ head coach recently took a picture with Texas head coach Charlie Strong while giving a Horns down sign with his left hand:

This is sure to rile up some fans of the Longhorns, as it was just a few years ago that former head coach Mack Brown called the sign ‘disrespectful’.
