  Lynn Bowden has not yet played his final game for the University of Kentucky. Bowden, a junior who has started at quarterback in UK's final seven games, will play against Virginia Tech in the Belk Bowl. It will be his final game as a Wildcat, he announced in a video posted to Twitter on Monday. "This place is my forever home," Bowden said in the video. "It won't be easy to leave that, but now is the time to enter the 2020 NFL Draft. The memories we made here are something special. From a 10-win season we last year to going back to my old position this year. I'll be taking those memories with me wherever I go next.

Bowden finished the 2019 regular season as the Southeastern Conference's third-leading rusher with 1,235 yards on 151 carries, behind only Mississippi State's Kylin Hill (1,347 on 235 carries) and LSU's Clyde Edwards-Helaire (1,290 on 197 carries). Bowden's 8.18 yards per carry led the SEC and were second only to Clemson's Travis Etienne, who averaged 8.24 yards per carry, among all FBS players. The 284 rushing yards he recorded against Louisville were the second most by a UK player in history. - Lexington Herald-Leader

The junior also had a 32-yard run in the fourth along with a 6-yarder in the second as Kentucky (7-5) surpassed 400 yards rushing for the third consecutive game.

He was named the winner of the Howard Schnellenberger Trophy as the game's most outstanding player.

Chris Rodriguez added a 64-yard scoring run in the fourth quarter and AJ Rose had a 4-yard TD run in the first as the bowl-bound Wildcats cruised to their third consecutive win and third Governor's Cup win in four years.

  2019 RAY GUY AWARD FINALIST: Max Duffy, Kentucky,...Duffy, of Perth, Australia, continues to be an absolute weapon for the Wildcats, dominating the field position game with his booming and accurate leg. He is UK's career punt leader with a 46.54-yard average and with his distance and placement, Kentucky leads the nation in net punting with a 45.24-yard net average. Duffy currently leads the nation in punting at 48.9 yards per punt. Only nine of Duffy's 45 punts have been returned (20 percent) and 23 of them have landed inside the 20-yard line (51 percent). He doesn't shy away from contact either. He has three career tackles, including an open-field tackle - possibly saving a touchdown - on UT Martin's Terry Williams, who already has two punt return TDs on the season. - Kentucky Football

  Lynn Bowden Jr. leads the SEC in all-purpose yards averaging 145.9 yards per game since the wide receiver moved over to quarterback for Kentucky. He's averaging 153.3 yards rushing in his four starts since the position change, and he's a threat to throw occasionally. Mason said that makes Bowden so very dangerous and compared the junior to Randall Cobb, now with the NFL's Dallas Cowboys. "If you feel like nothing's coming, you better get your eyes around because he's coming, Mason said. "And he's gone." - AP College Football
