I mean no disrespect to Kentucky, but I do think State’s last three losses in Lexington had more to do with their own incompetence.

2016 - State had an awful defense, and played prevent with a 1 point lead and let UK get into field goal range to win as time expired.

2018 - Joe Moorhead. Nuff said. State totally unraveled with penalties in that game and had a really stupid offensive gameplan in the rain.

2020 - Kentucky won by 22 while only having like 160 yards of total offense. This was the low point of Leach Year 1 and an offense that had no idea how to deal with “rush 3 drop 8” at that point.

I personally think the key matchups in this year’s game pretty clearly favor State and it will take another implosion for them to lose… the issue is an implosion is entirely possible.

And it was like a 51 yard FG, by far the longest their kicker had ever kicked

Not to mention all the unsportsmanlike conduct penalties, mouth running etc, by us. This was only the fourth game of the JoMo error, and after this game I knew he was in way over his head

And like 51 of that came on a QB scramble on like a 3 and 13. Take that off and they had 106 yards of offense.
