As a sophomore, Benny Snell is already on track to be the most prolific running back in University of Kentucky football history.
Snell now has 2,104 rushing yards in his career and is only the ninth player in UK history to reach 2,000 yards. He is now the first player in school history to rush for 1,000 yards in consecutive seasons.
With his 3 touchdowns yesterday, Snell has 28 for his career, which breaks the career mark previously held by Sonny Collins and Moe Williams.
