Give Mike Stoops credit, he’s built a team that isn’t going to quit.
Kentucky scored three touchdowns in three of their four second half possessions to make the game interesting in the fourth quarter. In fact, Kentucky scored as many touchdowns (four) as the had punts in the game (four). That’s an impressive feat against a team that is supposed to be the 13th best in the nation.
The Wildcats still have a lot of issues, especially on defense, but Kentucky fans should be proud of the way their team is battling against some of the better teams in the country.
