vs. Missouri State
It didn’t take long for freshman tailback Felix Jones to become a household name with Arkansas’ fans. The Tulsa, Okla., native went 80 yards for a touchdown on his second rush from scrimmage. It was Arkansas’ longest running play for a touchdown since the 2001 season when Fred Talley went 81 yards for a touchdown against Central Florida.

vs. USC
Even though Jones, the special teams player of the week, started at tailback against USC for the first time this season, his immediate impact was felt at the kick returner position after he ran back four kickoffs for 147 yards. He averaged 36.8 yards per kickoff return, making his performance the best single game average by an NCAA player this year. His 67-yard return on his first attempt of the game was the longest for Arkansas since Lawrence Richardson had a 98-yard return against Weber State in 2001 and Jones’long return help set up a UA touchdown.

vs. Mississippi State
Felix Jones scored on a 100-yard kickoff return in Arkansas' 44-10 win over Mississippi State on Friday. The ball bounced before reaching him, but Jones never considered letting it go into the end zone.
"Oh no, oh no -- I'm getting that ball," he said after the game. "I'm trying to take it back. I haven't gotten the ball in a while. That was my first time in a long time -- and I was just real excited that he kicked it to me."
