The one Kentucky football record that will never be broken

Some records are made to be broken. Others are carved into stone. Moe Williams’ 1995 rushing season? That one’s granite. And even though Mark Stoops is known for a run heavy offense, they haven't came within 150 yards of this record.

In a year when Kentucky went just 4–7, Williams ran for 1,600 yards, still the school record. To put it in perspective, that’s the 17th-best single season in SEC history. And he did it on a very bad team that went just 4-7. Williams averaged 145.5 yards per game, scored 17 touchdowns, and once gashed South Carolina for 299 yards in a single afternoon.
