LEXINGTON — Kentucky quarterback Sawyer Smith is expected to be available for the Wildcats' Saturday game against Arkansas, UK coach Mark Stoops said Monday.

"The word I got from our trainer this morning was he feels significantly better," Stoops said. "We'll see."

While he said he expects Smith to be available this week, Stoops acknowledged the quarterback's injuries leaves some uncertainty since Smith did not throw during the Wildcats' off week.
