Justin Jackson ended his magnificent career at Northwestern with a storybook ending. It was the kind of game we’ve gotten used to seeing from the four-time 1,000 yard rusher. Jackson gashed Kentucky for 157 yards on 32 carries and scored 2 touchdowns, earning the workhorse running back MVP honors. It was Jackson’s 27th time surpassing 100 rushing yards in a game and he vaulted Anthony Thompson, Damion Fletcher and LaDainian Tomlinson in the FBS all-time rushing list.
