Tonight marks the night the Bielema Era begins

I really hope so, but this team has given us no reason to think that will happen.

I've got a feeling shite got real on the hill during the bye week.
CBB made mention of 'abrasive' staff meetings.
Some faces have been gotten in to from the assistants down I'm thinking.

Hope we see some results.

from what I've seen bielema has almost nothing in common with how petrino ran the program. I don't think Bielema likes breaking them down before a game or in a game by yelling and cussing at the kids much, this was petrinos real favorite sport. I don't mind cussing but it also seemed petrino would ruin the confidence of some. I think because of this drill instructor type place he could take the more questionable recruits because he'd scare them into behaving through college. Bielema seems to want to take high character kids and build them up to be successful without having to scare them straight. I think the bye week he most likely chewed arse cussed up a storm and probably told 2-3 kids you are done if you aren't committed to the program. I think we'll see Bielema do a lot better next year and I don't think we are done ths year but this team is not mentally tough, they no fire when shite gets tough which to me says petrino recruits all over it.
