Jessica Jackson expected to return for next game

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas senior forward Jessica Jackson will play against Vanderbilt Thursday night in Walton Arena, Coach Jimmy Dykes said, after the team's leading scorer sat out the Razorbacks' 68-50 victory at Alabama last Saturday.

"She's back with us and I expect her to play really well tomorrow night," Dykes said Wednesday..

Jackson dressed out for the Alabama game and went through warmups, but never got off the bench.

"It was just a one-game decision by me not to play her based upon what I know she's capable of doing," Dykes said. "I'm not going to let her do anything less than I know she's capable of being.
