- KJ Jackson won Arkansas' quarterback competition after separating himself from Hill in fall-camp situational work, and the players subsequently selected him as one of three team captains. - Ryan Silverfield named Jackson before the opener so Arkansas' receivers, tight ends, offensive line and starting center could build rhythm with his cadence, checks and under-center exchanges. - Arkansas still plans some quarterback rotation, but Jackson's film-study habits, leadership and willingness to take responsibility were cited as major reasons he secured the starting role. - Jackson has not absorbed live contact during camp because quarterbacks wore protected jerseys, leaving his response to real pressure as an untested variable entering the North Alabama game.

- Top Betting/Intel Takeaways - Arkansas' spring-game takeaway starts with QB uncertainty. Trey Biddy gave KJ Jackson a slight edge over AJ after the Red-White game, but framed the job as unsettled and still a fall-camp risk. - KJ Jackson's best signal was a 65-yard completion to CJ Brown, with roughly 35 yards in the air. Biddy liked some of the throws but said KJ still needs more consistency and comfort in the offense. - AJ led multiple touchdown drives and has a big arm, but his long, looping throwing motion is a concern for Arkansas' quick-game/RPO/screen package. He also threw a roughly 53-yard pick-six. - Biddy said Arkansas probably did not land the proven transfer QB he wanted, which keeps the team's win-total ceiling tied heavily to whether one of the current QBs can become plus-level.
