One of the most satisfying aspects of Kentucky's best start in seven years is that multiple players have contributed on offense.

Shared responsibility between Wildcats running backs and receivers has culminated in an offense that ranks sixth in the Southeastern Conference at 448.5 yards per game. And Kentucky (5-1, 2-1 SEC) aims to use everybody available on Saturday night at LSU (5-2, 1-2).

Four backs and quarterback Patrick Towles have at least 112 yards rushing and two touchdowns each, and three have posted 100-yard games this season. Six receivers have at least 100 yards with four catching two TDs each.

Even better than the numbers, Kentucky offensive coordinator Neal Brown says that spreading the wealth on offense has been "great for team morale" and made more difficult for opposing defenses.
