Arkansas’ second-half collapse versus Virginia Tech in the Belk Bowl had many on social media going crazy — especially those in Fayetteville.
The pressure is certainly mounting on head coach Bret Bielema — from both the media and the fan base. It will be fascinating to see what ultimately happens in regards to the future of this program.
Here’s what some on Twitter had to say about the embarrassing loss:
I don’t know how Arkansas brings Bret Bielema back to coach next year after this meltdown. Seriously. It’s that bad.

Maybe Bret Bielema will finally accept that just having your guys eat ribs at halftime, though delicious, is not beneficial to performance.

SEC Network basketball commentator Jon Sundvold: “I went back to get a snack at halftime. I had no idea Bielema had so many first names.”
