Ray Davis continues to shred the Gators, as fans and media blast Florida for having 13 defenders

Ray Davis continues to pile up rushing yards, and cause fans and media to check record books as the Kentucky running back scored again against Florida.
Davis is up to 17 carries for 249 yards and 3 touchdowns. He also has a 9-yard touchdown catch as Kentucky leads Florida 30-7.
Kentucky only had 9 guys blocking, and still scored against 13 Gator defenders as Florida was flagged for an illegal substitution, but the Wildcats declined the penalty.
Davis has had a long college career, but this is shaping up to be a notable game.
As a true freshman at Temple in 2019, he totaled over 1,000 yards from scrimmage, but then he dealt with injuries at Vanderbilt. He bounced back in 2022 to rush for more than 1,000 yards for the Commodores. However, this season has proved to be his best, especially this game against the Gators.
Here’s a sample of the reaction:
Florida had 13 players on the field and they still couldn’t stop Ray??

Florida has 12 (13?) players on defense and still doesn’t keep Ray Davis from scoring.

Ray Davis’ 3rd rushing TD of the day comes on a play where Florida had 13 players on the field. Bonus points.

Jesse Palmer is absolutely dunking on Florida now. The Gators had 13 players on the field against nine Kentucky blockers, and UK still scored.
