Senior defensive tackle Ricky Lumpkin and senior wide receiver Chris Matthews have been named game captains for the Ole Miss game this weekend, first-year head coach Joker Phillips has announced.
Lumpkin, a native of Clarksville, Tenn., has played well for UK up front this season, gathering six tackles, 3.5 tackles-for-loss and one sack. The 3.5 tackles-for-loss, which ranks him tied for 18th in the Southeastern Conference, matches his season high set during the 2008 season.
Matthews is coming off the best game of his career last weekend vs. Florida, earning a career high in receiving yards with 114 and touchdowns with two. The native of Los Angeles, Calif, has recorded a touchdown in each of UK's last three games. Matthews is ranked in the SEC standings as well, sitting tied for 14th in receptions (3.25 per game), 11th in receiving yards (57.0 per game) and tied for 17th in scoring (6.0 points per game).
Lumpkin and Matthews will join permanent captains Randall Cobb and DeQuin Evans at the pregame coin toss.
