Landon Jackson and the Arkansas Razorbacks are taking on the Missouri Tigers in the Battle Line Rivalry. It’s been a snowy game so far and the offenses have both struggled to get anything going consistently.
The major story from this game so far is a scary injury suffered by Jackson. In the 2nd quarter, Jackson collided with teammate Doneiko Slaughter and remained on the field for over 10 minutes.
Eventually, the cart removed Jackson from the field and the star defender was thankfully able to display a thumbs-up to the crowd on his way out.
Stretcher is on its way out for Landon.
