With hundreds of Texas high school coaches seated before him on a July morning in Houston, Arkansas coach Bret Bielema discussed the importance of winning on the road in the SEC.
As one of the several college head coaches to serve as a guest lecturer at the Texas High School Coaches Association convention and coaching school -- yes, that one -- Bielema reserved a short block of his two-hour speech to the topic, flashing a chart on the two screens behind him that displayed the names of the last five SEC West Division champions and each team's SEC road record.
