After smashing Florida, the Kentucky Wildcats continue to rake in weekly awards from the SEC and major national outlets.

On Tuesday, it was announced that standout running back Ray Davis was named the Doak Walker National Running Back of the Week.

In Kentucky’s 33-14 demolition of the Gators, the 5-foot-10, 216-pounder racked up 280 rushing yards and three touchdowns to go with a nine-yard scoring grab. He became the ninth player in program history to eclipse 200 yards rushing in a game, while the 280 rushing yards were also just 19 yards short of the single-game program record.
