The Kentucky Wildcats snapped a 31-year losing streak against the Florida Gators on Saturday, and star RB Benny Snell Jr. had a huge effort in the game.
Snell ran for 175 yards in the winning effort, setting up some touchdowns for the Wildcats. But, like any good running back knows, you need your offensive linemen to be able to find any sort of success.
As you can see below, Bunchy Stallings provided one such block on Saturday, absolutely leveling a Florida defender:

On “Thinking Out Loud” on Monday night, Snell joined host Marcus Spears and joked about his thought process on the play:

If Snell keeps getting blocks like that from his offensive linemen this season, he should once again eclipse the 1,000-yard mark.
