Arkansas running back Marshall returns to practice

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) Arkansas coach Bret Bielema says running back Korliss Marshall has returned to practice after a three-game suspension and will be available when the Razorbacks host No. 14 LSU next week.

Marshall, part of Arkansas' trio of top running backs with Alex Collins and Jonathan Williams, missed games against Georgia, Alabama-Birmingham and Mississippi State for what Bielema said was a violation of university policy.

The sophomore leads Arkansas in return yardage this season, including a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against Northern Illinois. He has 116 yards rushing on 24 carries, and Bielema has said he ''one more opportunity to get it right.''

The Razorbacks (4-5, 0-5 Southeastern Conference) have a bye this week before hosting the Tigers (7-2, 3-2) on Nov. 15.
