Did you know Kentucky was the only team in the SEC that did not have at least one rusher gain at least 100 yards in any of its games this season?
It’s true.
UK had six individual 100-yard rushing games a year ago, all by Rafael Little.
This year, Derrick Locke came the closest when the sophomore rushed for 96 yards on just six carries against FCS team Norfolk State back on Week 2 of the season. That was before Locke was lost for the season with a knee injury.
If you want to stick to FBS opponents, Randall Cobb rushed for 82 yards on 18 carries in the 42-38 loss to Georgia.
Here’s the chart of the Cats’ top 10 rushing performances this season:
