Rajion Neal has surpassed 2,000 rushing yards in his career. (2,029yards)
If he rushes for 72 yards vs UK he will surpass Garner, which i think Garner is currently 11th all time.
Rajion Neal has played a outstanding year, 10 more yards until 1000 yards!! After next week, Neal will be the 14th Vols running back to run for 1000 yards in a season. Last 1000 yard rusher was Arian Foster in 2007.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.
