The internet works in mysterious ways. This week it added to the Lynn Bowden hype train in an unusual way.
Lynn Bowden’s 2019 statistics have been absolutely incredible. The wide receiver-turned-quarterback leads UK in receiving and in rushing. He ranks 15th in the nation in yards per carry at just shy of seven an attempt and he’s 10th in the nation in all-purpose yards with 142.3 a game (and for some reason that does not include his 317 passing yards).
His success has drawn headlines throughout the SEC. Over the last 48 hours he’s become an online sensation and it has nothing to do with what he’s done for Kentucky in 2019.
