A pair of Kentucky offensive linemen are the best blockers in America.
Various outlets are releasing midseason All-American honors and two Kentucky offensive linemen received salutes. CBS named Darian Kinnard its first team offensive tackle, while the Associated Press tabbed Eli Cox as a first team offensive guard.
For those keeping track at home, the entire right side of Kentucky’s offensive line is made up of All-Americans. Not too shabby.
Cox, a sophomore from Nicholasville, Ky., earned SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week honors after he recorded seven knock down blocks against LSU.
