LEXINGTON, Ky. – Kentucky offensive tackle Garry Williams has been named the Southeastern Conference Offensive Lineman of the Week, the league office announced Monday.
Williams was chosen for his performance in Kentucky’s 41-3 win over Western Kentucky University. The Wildcats piled up 398 yards of total offense, including 216 on the ground, while scoring a season-high 41 points. Williams did not allow a quarterback sack or have a penalty, and as a unit, the UK O-Line allowed only one play for lost yardage.
This is the second time in his career that Williams, a senior out of Louisville’s Seneca High School, has been picked as the SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week. He also was chosen following last year’s win over Florida Atlantic.
Williams is the third Wildcat to win an SEC Player of the Week honor in 2008. Defensive tackle Myron Pryor was the SEC Defensive Player of the Week for the Louisville game and quarterback Mike Hartline was the SEC Offensive Player of the Week after the win over Middle Tennessee.
South Carolina Game Selected by Raycom: The South Carolina at Kentucky game on Oct. 11 has been chosen for live regional telecast by Raycom Sports, the Southeastern Conference office has announced.
Game time will be 12:30 p.m. Dave Neal calls the play-by-play, with Dave Archer giving the analysis and Dave Baker providing reports from the sidelines.
This will be Kentucky’s third live national or regional telecast of the season, joining the Louisville (ESPN) and Alabama (CBS) games.
