Bielema hopes to extend November touch against Bulldogs

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) Don't look now, but Bret Bielema might just be up to his old November tricks again.

At least, the Arkansas coach hopes so when the surging Razorbacks (6-4, 4-2 Southeastern Conference) host Mississippi State (7-3, 3-3) on Saturday night.

After a disappointing start to the season, including a shocking loss to Toledo, Arkansas enters this week having won four straight games - including back-to-back road wins over ranked opponents Mississippi and LSU.

Those last two wins came this month, a time of the year Bielema thrived at during his seven seasons at Wisconsin before taking over a dysfunctional Arkansas program in the wake of the Bobby Petrino scandal and eventual firing.
