3. Benjamin Snell Jr., Kentucky

2016 stats, 1091 yards, 13 touchdowns

As a freshman, Snell was the most electric player on Kentucky’s offense. The Dawgs escaped with a slim 27-24 victory in Lexington, and Snell’s 2 touchdowns were a big reason it was such a close game.

While I don’t necessarily look for Kentucky to compete for the SEC East title, Snell and the Wildcats could definitely make some noise this year.  It should be a very interesting matchup of running attacks when the Dawgs and Wildcats face off in Athens on November 18th.

This is a late season SEC East contest that could potentially ruin a special season for the Dawgs. I look for them to be hitting on all cylinders by then though , especially on defense, and take care of business here.
