Summary
Arkansas Razorbacks’ defense enters a new era under coordinator Ron Roberts, whose unconventional schemes promise to shake up the SEC.

John Nabors also tackles Brett Bielema’s latest potshots at the SEC, questioning whether his criticism holds any weight after his lackluster record in Fayetteville. Plus, Razorback fans get a rare compliment for their all-sport passion—find out why other SEC media members are envious of the Arkansas fanbase’s dedication to basketball and baseball, not just football.
