Kentucky freshman RB Benny Snell Jr. is having a huge day against the hapless Missouri Tigers.
Early in the fourth quarter, Snell has already run for 159 yards and two touchdowns.
Snell’s second touchdown run put him in the Kentucky record books. With eight touchdowns on the season, Snell now has more rushing touchdowns than Randall Cobb (now with the Green Bay Packers) did in his freshman year, setting the school record:

With a one-two punch of Boom Williams and Benny Snell, Kentucky’s running game has been lethal this season.
The Wildcats currently lead Mizzou 35-7 in the fourth quarter.
