WATCH: Josh Allen talks about upcoming Senior Day, what it means to him
Kentucky pass rusher Josh Allen could have been in the NFL this year, but he decided to return to Lexington for his senior season.
That move likely made him millions of dollars, as the talented Wildcat has been a monster this year and is now being mentioned as a likely top-10 NFL Draft pick.
However, he’s still a college player, and he’ll play in his last home game on Saturday against Middle Tennessee. As you can see in the video below, he’s expecting an emotional game:

“It’s going to be cold,” Allen jokes. “Other than that, it’s going to be a lot of emotions. I’m going to have all my family there. All my family and friends in the stands, and the fans. It’s going to be a real emotional moment, but we still have a game to win.”
The Wildcats have lost two straight games, but have a chance to bounce back against the Blue Raiders. Allen has an incredible 11 sacks this year, so he’ll be key to Kentucky’s success.
