It is not an understatement to say that Lynn Bowden saved the University of Kentucky’s Football season.

The accolades rolled in for Lynn, culminating with his winning the Paul Hornung Award as college football’s most versatile player. He led the Wildcats and the SEC in rushing yards even while making the position switch from Wide Receiver to Quarterback due to numerous injuries at the QB position.

The Kentucky Wildcats Football program wrapped up this season with an 8-5 record and a victory over Virginia Tech in the Belk Bowl.
