Arkansas coach Bret Bielema responds to Kingsbury comments

Arkansas coach Bret Bielema responded Monday to critical comments made by Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury over the weekend.

After a 35–24 win for the Red Raiders over the Razorbacks on Saturday, Kingsbury went after Bielema for comments made during a summer convention for Texas high school football coaches about pass-heavy offenses.

"[Bielema] stood up and said if you don't play with a full back, we'll kick your a--, if you throw it 70 times a game we'll kick your a--," Kingsbury said. "He just got his a-- kicked twice in a row, and probably next week by [Texas] A&M as well."

Bielema, whose Arkansas team also lost in an upset to Toledo in Week 2, responded to Kingsbury during his Monday press conference.

Bielema on Kingsbury remarks: If that makes him feel better, then God bless him.

Bielema: If that was an ass kicking, I'd hate to see what last year's game was

Bielema on Kliff: I was like c'mon brother. Don't be so sensitive. I'm not talking about you in particular, just saying what I believe in.

Arkansas faces Texas A&M this Saturday, while Texas Tech will face another high-powered offense in TCU.
