Here’s a look at the top three individual performances by SEC players from the first weekend of the season.
3. Tennessee RB John Kelly
The skinny: In his first game as the Vols’ unquestioned feature back, Kelly rushed for 128 yards and four touchdowns on 19 carries in Tennessee’s double-overtime win over Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets’ offensive success — they had the ball for 41:27 in regulation — limited UT’s possessions and Kelly had just 14 carries in the first four quarters. But he made them count, going for 106 yards and two TDs.
