There's more talent in Arkansas and surrounding states than there is in Wisconsin and upper Midwest.
A fact commonly ignored by the (scared) SEC Rant.
And the majority of that talent is going to other SEC and Big XII schools. Not to mention that the level of competition is significantly higher.
Have Arky fans really been reduced to surrouding state recruiting smack?

I think this topic is overanylzed.
If Bielema is a great coach he'll win, regardless of style and conference.
I know we all said Petrino would fail in the SEC and he had Ark on the cusp of a title game.

No one in the country can compete against LSU and Bama in a straight-up slugfest. Bielema will figure that out in a hurry - so I don't expect him to come-in with the sole intention of strictly running the ball, no matter how he did it up north.

If Bielema wanted to "run the rock" he shouldn't have made Chaney his OC.

I've seen it happen to both teams from Arky and USCjr

He's not a pussy. He won't Dooley it up and not provide guidance to his OC.

Arkansas played for the SEC Championship 3 times with a ground an pound style. Won or shared the division title 4 times with ground and pound style.

"Former Tennessee offensive coordinator Jim Chaney will bring his high-flying aerial attack to Arkansas."
"Chaney's reputation as a developer of the passing game will be a welcomed addition to an Arkansas fan base that had grown accustomed to being among the SEC's top passing teams under former coach Bobby Petrino."
LINK
"Possessing one of college football's best offensive minds, Chaney has helped the Boilermakers lead the Big Ten in passing offense five of the last eight seasons (1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2004) and in total offense on three occasions (1997, 1999 and 2002)."
Yep...Bielema brought in Chaney because he wanted to grind it with the running game...

What are the first 2 pictures showing? How big both OLs are?

I think it could be a good mix. Coach B has a history of pounding RBs and Chaney has a history of good QB developement and good passing teams.
I'm more excited about Pittman coaching the Oline though.

frick that USCjr shite, piggie bitch. You wanna be a So Cal fan then good, I'll remember that when responding to you from this point forward, although I do not understand your love for them given as how they have totally mudholed your pigs the last two recent times y'all faced them. What, 17-70 in '05 and 14-50 in '06? lulz
With regard to your obvious ignorance of the game of football and, in particular, the Bama at SC game in 2010, it worked for SC that day because Bama was worried about our passing game ... Alshon Jeffery and Tori Gurley.
Just as a point, to illustrate what a fricking football moron you are, SC had 201 yards through the air that day and only 110 yards on the ground. Alshon Jeffery had 127 rcv yds and 2 TDs, dumbass.
Our SCAR defense also held Ingram and Richardson to a combined 64 yards total, on the ground.
THAT'S how we won that game. Alabama had the ball five minutes more than we did, had more yards through the air, more total yards and fewer penalty yards called against them.
If Bielema wants to beat Bama he'll do so by making plays, moving the ball however his squad i best at doing it, making fewer mistakes, and stopping their run game. He'll have to force them into doing things they are not accustomed to doing, get up on them and force them to the air, and play good, error free, defense because Saban's Bama teams make you pay for mistakes in the trenches.
The only game, between Arkansas and Bama, that I've watched in recent memory was in 2010 the same day in late September I was at Auburn sitting in a bar, or maybe it was the Shakey's pizza, I dunno, before heading into the SCAR at Auburn game and I remember it going down to the wire but I do not remember Arkansas having success on the ground against Bama in that game. Matter of fact, unless my memory serves me wrong, I seem to remember just the opposite. Mallett had over 350 yds through the air and Arkansas had less than 100 yds on the ground in that game. Arkansas could not convert on 3rd and short all day long and it cost you in the end, while Bama was content to play smash-mouth football knowing your defense couldn't stop them on the ground in 3rd and short. Bama's defense stepped up in the end and finally stopped Mallett through the air and the game was over.
USCjr my arse frickwad.
SC beat them, pigs choked. Don't try to compare the two.
If you've got other examples of games played against Saban's Bama by the two teams, that supports you claim, then I look forward to seeing them. I'm not sure how that's possible since you've not beaten them since Saban's arrival but, by all means, give it a try.
Was that reply to you suitable from a USCjr fan?

I never said he did.
There's this thing called balance. Look it up.

Bilema didn't get to where he is by being stupid. He's going to build his offense around the talent he has on hand and mold it to his vision over time.
He's not going to try to slug-it-out with Bama and LSU straight out of the chute unless he is sadomasochistic in nature.
Bielema is defense minded. He knows that is going to be where his bread is buttered early-on in Fayetteville. And Arkansas has been somewhat lacking, at times, on defense even under Petrino.

I think a lot of people confuse Alvarez with Bielema. Wisc has been a pretty balanced offense since he took over.
