Auburn is promoting this weekend's series against Arkansas as one of their most important of the season, what with NCAA hopes possibly on the line. As a result, they're offering incentives to get students to show up and create "the electric atmosphere Plainsman Park is known for". Whatever that is. So the first 500 students to tonights game get free hot dogs and drinks on the Tiger Terrace. That's pretty cool. First 500 students on Friday get an Aubbie wobblehead. Nice. But on Saturday? First 100 students get a "Max Credit Union Auburn Baseball" autographed by "volunteer assistant coach" Gabe Gross. Feel that Plainsman electricity!

Bielema spoke to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution recently and touched on all those topics and more. Most of this link is written in a Q&A format, so you see Bielema elaborate on these topics. Interesting to see his recruiting philosophy regarding the state of Georgia. I'm sure the question was raised since this is the Atlanta paper, but it's the first time we remember Bielema discussing Georgia recruiting this bluntly.

I wrote this over a year ago for ArkansasSports360, but talk of the 9 game schedule is heating up again so I thought I'd post it as a refresher.
