FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Arkansas linebacker Freddie Fairchild is expected to miss the rest of the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament.

Coach Houston Nutt talked about Fairchild's injury Sunday, a day after the Razorbacks beat Utah State 20-0.

"I think it was the right knee," Nutt said. "It was kind of a freak accident. He got his knee caught up wrong towards the end of a play. He assisted with a tackle and kind of turned and somebody landed on it wrong or a helmet hit it."

Fairchild, a sophomore, made 59 tackles and two sacks last year. Nutt said he can likely redshirt this season with a medical waiver.

Arkansas (1-1) plays at Vanderbilt next Saturday.
