| SEC honors Jones for special teams play against Troy Junior Felix Jones was recognized by the league as the Southeastern Conference Special Teams Player of the Week on Monday for his performance in Arkansas' 46-26 win over Troy last weekend. Jones racked up 287 allpurpose yards including 144 yards on three kickoff returns, highlighted by a 90-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against the Trojans. The return marked the third time in his Razorback career he has returned a kickoff for a score. Jones returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown against Mississippi State as a freshman in 2005 before duplicating the feat against Ole Miss as a sophomore in 2006. Jones is tied for the career lead in that category among active NCAA players and only Willie Gault (4 ) of Tennessee has more kickoff returns for touchdowns in his career in SEC history. He ranks second nationally in both kickoff returns and all-purpose yards after the opening weekend. The Razorback tailback also recorded his eighth career 100-yard rushing game when he tallied 129 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries. He averaged 10. 8 yards per attempt and reeled off five runs of five yards or more, including runs of 27, 40 and 44 yards. His 40-yard run came on the Hogs' first offensive play of the game and his 44-yard effort went for a touchdown in the third quarter. SEC honors Jones for special teams play against Troy
