Quick trivia question: Who was the only SEC team to have two 1,000-yard rushers in 2016? To give you a hint, it was not Alabama, Georgia, or LSU.
If you answered Kentucky, you would be correct. Junior Stanley “Boom” Williams was sixth in the SEC with 1,170 rushing yards and 7 touchdowns, while freshman Benny Snell Jr. was 10th eighth in the conference with 1,091 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns.
Williams is now a member of the Cincinnati Bengals. In fact, he was the only one of the SEC’s top 14 rushers that wasn’t returning for 2017, until the news broke of Arkansas’ Rawleigh Williams III.
