Beating Alabama is already tough enough, Arkansas cannot afford to face the adversity of bad calls in addition to the challenges the Crimson Tide present. Something Arkansas head coach Bret Bielema knows all too well after dropping his first three to Nick Saban’s team.
In the second quarter, the Razorbacks were fighting to get back into the game when the offense was flagged for a phantom holding call on a touchdown play. Following the holding enforcement, Arkansas only came away with a field goal in the possession.
The flag caused Bielema to go off:

So what exactly did Bielema say to the refs?
“I was telling him what a good job he was doing,” Bielema told ESPN sideline reporter Holly Rowe right before the start of the second half. Sarcasm at an all-time high from the head Hog right there.
