It didn’t take long for Barion Brown to introduce himself to Big Blue Nation. The four-star freshman wide receiver made his collegiate debut for Kentucky as the starting Z-receiver on offense, but it was on special teams where he had his breakout moment with a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown.
The kick return TD snapped a 13-year drought without a kickoff score for the Wildcats. Kentucky hadn’t seen one since Derrick Locke went 100 yards to the house against Louisville in the second game of the 2009 season.
Watch Brown leave everyone behind on his endzone-to-endzone dash to the house.
