1. Emmanuel Forbes

Will Levis has been everything that every scout has advertised him to be this season. He is the gunslinger the Kentucky offense needed when starting the year without running back Chris Rodriguez. If there’s one knock on Levis’ game, it’s that he isn’t afraid of interceptions.

That’s something junior corner Emmanuel Forbes might like to hear. Forbes has been a ball hawk when it comes to finding errant passes from opposing QBs. The corner has already collected four this season and has 12 overall in his three years at Mississippi State. Levis has to keep an eye out for Forbes on every passing situation.
