Bret Bielema won't rule out Belk Bowl outcome determining his baby's name
Arkansas coach Bret Bielema is plenty excited for Thursday’s Belk Bowl, but there’s something more important going on in his life, as his wife is expecting a baby. At a recent media opportunity, Bielema found a way to talk about both as only he can.
Bielema, asked about a baby name: "We don't have a name. It might be depending on the game. Charlotte would be beautiful."

If Arkansas fans ever have the fortune of meeting Charlotte Bielema, they can say, “Hey, you were named after the 2016 Belk Bowl when we upset Virginia Tech!” The Hokies are currently listed as seven-point favorites over the Razorbacks.
If the Razorbacks lose the game, set for a 4:30 p.m. CT kickoff on ESPN, we suppose the Bielemas will be back to the drawing board. Either way, coach’s Twitter feed should provide plenty of offseason entertainment in the form of Baby Bielema updates.
The Belk Bowl’s official Twitter account chimed in with its own thoughts on Baby Bielema’s name:
Hey @BretBielema "Belk" has a nice ring to it… https://t.co/EuXQbJQvpU
