FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas Coach Sam Pittman announced the team’s captains for Saturday’s 6 p.m. game against LSU and one of them, defensive end Landon Jackson, felt like a slam dunk.
Jackson, a transfer from LSU after the 2021 season, is a preseason All-SEC choice.
The other three captains are tight end Andreas Paaske, safety Larry Worth and long snapper Ashton Ngo.
“Man he made a lot of plays on Saturday night,” Pittman said of Worth, who had seven tackles and an assisted sack during a 19-14 victory over then-No. 4 Tennessee on Oct. 5.
Paaske will be back after missing three games on concussion protocols and Pittman said his parents, Lars and Gitte Paaske, will be flying from Denmark for the game.
