BB crappy? Nah man I wouldn't say that. He did ok at wisky and has revamped that arky program. They beat us 2 in a row and came close to beating bama last year. Sumlins seat is hot but watch out for them this year. Their D should be the best they've had in a long time and they have a veteren qb that's good enough in that offense to be successful. I gonna say Big Brett even though sumlins seen more sec success to this point.

Bert and not close

I think this year will show us, but they could be just about completely even. Sumlin lucked out with Manziel to start, but has clearly struggled since his departure...and even struggled a little during his last season. Bielema on the other hand hasn't had a single good season yet, when he absolutely should have last year.
Both underachieving some, so this year may show us who can step up (or no one step up
)

Brett hasn't beaten Sumlin yet and he lost to Toledo and Texas Tech. This shouldn't even be a discussion.

but he still finished behind Bert in the standings last year

At least do some cursory research. Sherman's QB coach had to beg him to give Manziel a look.
Sherman redshirted both Johnny Manziel and Mike Evans.

Bert beat Freeze, but finished behind him in the standings.

Sumlin hasn't beaten Texas.
Bert has.
Just as relevant as your "argument".

Sumlin has a habit of waiting WAY TOO LONG to fire bad/underperforming coaches.
He waited until 2014 (2 years too late) to fire Mark Sny_er.
He waited until 2014 (1 year too late) to fire B.J. Anderson then replaced him with an ever worse and more toxic coach (Dave Christiansen) who he promptly fired.
He waited until 2015 (should have never promoted him in the first place) to fire Jake Spavitard.
He has no bullets left. If he can't get it done with Mazzone (OC/QB), Turner (OL), and Chavis (DC), he'll never get it done.

And? He had Ryan Tannehill as his starter. I imagine a redshirt year was good for Manziel.

Careful, a program like SC will come and snatch him up.

Yeah, if anything the knock on Sherman would be having Tannehill playing WR for way too long...
Not that it was the difference between a championship or not for Aggy, but it could have been the difference in a better bowl game which would be a huge deal for a program like Aggy.

so is beating Arkansas or finishing higher in the standings more important to you?

Is this a rhetorical question?
Arkansas has replaced Texas as their superbowl each season.
Despite historically being an inferior program to Arkansas, all that matters is games played from "insert year here" where the series doesn't appear to be as lopsided as it truly is.
