Kentucky holds on to win in Columbia, 16-10

Kentucky is headed back to Lexington with a perfect 4-0 record on the season after defeating South Carolina down in Columbia, 16-10, Saturday night. Also worth celebrating, Mark Stoops broke Fran Curci’s record for SEC wins by a Kentucky head coach with his 26th victory in Southeastern Conference play.

As for how the Wildcats got it done in Williams-Brice Stadium, the offense has the defense to thank for protecting a small lead. Turnovers were again a problem for the offense, this time with an interception and two fumbles in a -3 turnover margin. Kentucky fumbled two other times, but recovered those to avoid complete disaster.
