fwiw, the OP didn't state '2013'... delusion goes way beyond one season. The vast majority of the fans with new coaches think they'll have mediocre teams (anywhere from 4 to 7 losses this season)

I get the impression that Arkansas fans think Beilema will have their program to Wisconsin level within the next 3 years or so. I have no idea if he'll do that or not, and someone who had success at UW should be able to have success at a program like Arkansas.

With that said, BB was handed a Cadillac by Alveraz... he's inherited a 96 ford torus by JLS/Petrino.

i get that. but i think the tempered expectations of Arkansas fans for this season is a good sign that most, if not all on here, are realistic.

i don't get that impression at all. "3 conf. championships/3 Rose Bowls in a row" is basically a response to those saying Bielema is unproven and will fail hard (and there are a lot saying that). No Arkansas fans I know of are expecting 3 BCS bowls in a row, just to get us regularly competitive and in the SEC hunt now and then.
