Nick Saban might be the best coach in college football history, but how do the rest of the SEC head coaches stack up against each other?

14. Bret Bielema – Arkansas

Record at School

25-26

Ranking Justification

Bielema’s tenure at Arkansas can be best described as bland. Bielema’s Wisconsin teams were staples in the top 10 during his seven years in the Big 10. Since moving to the SEC he hasn’t surpassed eight wins and consistently fails to deliver in meaningful games.

The Hogs have won their fair share of games versus ranked opponents. They went 3-5 against ranked squads in 2016. Yet, it feels like Arkansas is never going to turn the corner under Bielema’s direction.

Worst Loss

SEC coaches should not lose to schools from the Mid-American Conference. Period.

Best Win

Shutting out a top ten team in the SEC isn’t easy, but a .500 Arkansas team slammed Hugh Freeze’s Rebels 30-0 in 2014.
