I can’t wait for Bielema to run up the score on Alabama.

“It’s a great day to be a pig.” Bret Bielema, for pretty much his entire life.

If Wisconsin hires former OC Paul Chryst from Pitt, Pitt will need its SIXTH head coach since 2010.

How in the fuck did Barry Alvarez let that just happen?!?

Well the Fire Bielema! dopes will get to see someone else at the helm, it appears. First true HC opening at UWfootball since 1990.

Having completed 2 seasons coaching Indiana, Kevin Wilson will now have the longest tenure at his school in the Leaders Division.

So, obviously, Bielema coached #B1G title game knowing he was going to Arkansas. I thought that “W” he made with his hands was sincere.

That being said, Bielema dropping 70 on a team and then leaving the conference is really the only way he could do it. Perfect dismount

How in the world is Wisconsin going to find another head coach that looks just like Bucky?

Wait, Brett Bielema needs to get a #Badger tattoo before he leaves town. #othercalf #maybeneck

Dear Arkansas writers: Your challenge is to get Bielema to finish one sentence before moving on to the next.

Heal up Madtown coeds. The #Bieledong will be back soon enough for some unfinished business.
