CJ Baxter helped Kentucky Football make history, then gave all the credit to the Big Blue Wall

Kentucky achieved a historic rushing milestone in their 45-21 victory over South Alabama on Saturday afternoon, powered by a massive ground attack at Kroger Field. CJ Baxter led the charge with 149 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries, while Jason Patterson contributed 137 yards and three scores and Jovantae Barnes added 100 yards with a touchdown.

This marked the first instance in school history where three distinct running backs all surpassed the century mark in a single contest. Following the win, Baxter deflected individual praise entirely onto his offensive linemen, highlighting the tight bonds and rigorous weekday preparation of teammates like Lance Heard.

The dominant rushing performance ultimately overwhelmed the Jaguar defense, allowing Kentucky to overcome a first-half deficit despite a sluggish start.
