FAYETTEVILLE — Through five games, Arkansas running back Rakeem Boyd believes he has had an OK junior season.
His rushing numbers, when compared to other backs in the Southeastern Conference and even across the country, tell another story. The Razorbacks' lead back has rushed for 483 yards and three touchdowns in 2019, and he is averaging better than five yards per touch.
Entering this weekend's trip to Kentucky, a team that has lost three consecutive games in league play following a 2-0 start in nonconference, Boyd is No. 3 in the SEC in rushing and 13th nationally, currently in a tie with TCU's Darius Anderson.
