I remember Ronnie brown and Cadillac Williams had it at auburn the year they went undefeated. Not sure if Felix jones and Darren McFadden had it at Arkansas, but good chance they did too

These teams that run the ball 70% of the time (triple option teams an simply run heavy teams) do it quite frequently.

It's happened a lot, but never at Kentucky. Rafael Little was our last 1000 yard rusher. It's exciting that we've gone so long without one and now we very well could have 2

Don't forget the Pony Express of Dickerson and James in 1981. They almost did it again in 1982 but James fell just short.

Same season. How many times has that happened in college football?

Boom and Snell have a good shot to rush for 1,000 yards, and that would be a great accomplishment. I think they will make it because of Kentucky's current emphasis on the running game. But people should remember that Austin Peay is the only remaining team on our schedule without a stout defensive front.

I'd at Tennessee to that list as well. That defensive front 7 is NOTHING like what it was before they got banged up. We should be able to run on them at will. UGA and Louisville will be much tougher to run against, but I still see around 200 yards in each...hopefully.

I'm hoping that Benny receives the reward of being the featured back in our run game vs AP. He deserves it for all the positive yardage he has given the Cats in critical situations this season!
