Two Kentucky Wildcats are featured in ESPN’s list of the best college football players for 2018.
Outside Linebacker Josh Allen and Running Back Benny Snell came in at #8 and #42 respectively on their list. Neither were listed on ESPN’s preseason top 50 list.
In a year full of star talent, both players are well deserving of their top 50 rankings. Neither came to UK highly recruited and spent most of their careers under appreciated by the national media. Allen and Snell earned the right to not only be listed as some of the best in UK history, but college football history as well.
