Racked up yards against bad teams I'm guessing.

Basically they played against horrible defenses (even worse than ours).

Nothing to worry about with their run game.

Braylon Heard had a 58 ypc game against Tennessee Martin (on two carries). With that game included, Heard's ypc is 7.42. Without it, his ypc is 4.62.

Likewise, Stanley Williams had a few great runs against Ohio and ULM. Without those games included, his ypc drops from 8.83 to 2.96.

And more generally, Kentucky is averaging 234 on the ground against FCS teams, but only 174 against FBS teams. That's a difference of 60 yards. Pretty big.

81 yards at roughly 3ypc against the Gators. Meanwhile, Florida rushed for well over 200 as did USCe against Kentucky.

He is pretty good. But he has only gotten 10+ carries twice this year. His ypc in those games? 3.25 against Florida and 4.13 against Vandy.

That doesn't scream "stud" to me, sorry.

FWIW, he was suspended against USCe. He had some key plays against UF. And Heard is finally back at 100% off an ankle injury. Stoops likes to spread it around at RB.

Not saying they blow you up, just throwing that out there for statistical purposes.

Be careful. If you use that as a word people will think it is one.

Fair enough. Context is good. So are UK's backs, no doubt.
