Bobby Petrino patrolling the sidelines again as the Arkansas football coach was something you had to see to believe — even then, it was hard to comprehend what your eyes and ears were telling you.
Yes, the 64-year-old came up short in his first game back as the interim Head Hog, losing by a field goal to No. 12 Tennessee in Neyland Stadium. And sure, three lost fumbles cost Arkansas the game, but overall it was a dramatic improvement over the final game of Sam Pittman’s tenure in September.
Petrino has been candid in recent weeks about his coaching journey and how much it means to him to be back in charge of the Razorbacks.
