Uncharacteristic performances lead to second loss of Kentucky’s season

No. 8 Kentucky began the game on offense and crossed midfield in just five plays. Marching into Tennessee territory, the high-octane offense that had been seen all season was seemingly unbothered by the theatrics of a sold-out and blacked-out Neyland Stadium. Kenny Minchey’s pass caught by CJ Baxter moved the...

Upcoming opponent stats: Florida Gators vs. Kentucky Wildcats

The Florida Gators travel to Lexington for an SEC showdown with No. 13 Kentucky on Saturday, looking to snap a two-game losing streak and become bowl-eligible after failing to meet the six-win threshold in 2025. Under first-year head coach Will Stein, the Wildcats average 383.6 yards and 29.9 points per game, ranking No. 70 and No. 56 respectively. Led by quarterback Kenny Minchey, Kentucky produces 219.9 passing yards with completions to wide receivers going for over 10 yards. Minchey has amassed 1,979 passing yards, 14 touchdowns and just two interceptions so far this season. His completion percentage of 69% is fourth best in the conference. Running back C.J. Baxter has accumulated 541 rushing yards and eight touchdowns, while receiver Kenny Derby leads the team with 567 receiving yards. Brad White and the Florida defense allowed just two rushes over 10 yards against Oklahoma but surrendered efficient ground gains to the Sooners and were unable to get on the field on third down, resulting in a 15:40 time-of-possession advantage for OU. They'll need to find ways to generate negative plays in order to slow down Baxter's and the Kentucky rushing attack. Buster Faulkner and the Gators' offense will need to take

Road-weary NKU Norse clobbered in St. Louis, Ky. frosh lead Kansas over Kentucky

Kentucky WBB preview: Evansville invades Historic Memorial Coliseum

Time to flush last night out of our minds. Kenny Brooks and the Kentucky women’s basketball team hit the court again tonight at 6:30 to take on Evansville. The Purple Aces are 0-2 on the year, but college basketball can be funny. Tonight will be a good test of whether Kenny Brooks’ squad can avoid that dreaded hangover. After a big win against NC State, it’s possible they could come out slow and lethargic.

Florida defense preview: Brad White returns to Kentucky

Kentucky football cannot allow one loss to turn into two this weekend as they host the Florida Gators under the lights of Kroger Field on Saturday night. Jon Sumrall started the month of September looking like he already brought the Gators back to the top of college football, but Florida is reeling after losing four of their last five games. We previewed the Gators run heavy attack on offense , now we look at the defense that has struggled all season. Former Kentucky defensive coordinator Brad White is now leading the Gators defense and it has not been pretty. Florida's defense is allowing 27 points per game and have struggled all season. The Gators rank 15th in the SEC in success rate allowed, they rank 12th in rushing success rate allowed and they are dead last in the conference in passing success rate allowed. This is an ideal bounce back spot for a Kentucky offense that failed to score a touchdown last week at Tennessee. If they come ready to play, this could be one of the best performances of the season for quarterback Kenny Minchey. We saw Brad White's defense for years at Kentucky, and the bend-don't-break philosophy with
