STREAK OVER: Florida falls to Kentucky for first time in over three decades

Terry Wilson had Florida defenders diving helplessly at his feet.

The Kentucky quarterback consistently found himself in open space with no one within reach of him until he had moved 10, 15, 20 yards up the field.

No one except running back Benny Snell, who ran just as easily over Florida’s defensive front.

The Gators never found a way to contain the duo as they fell to Kentucky 21-16 at home on Saturday night.

And Florida’s fate ultimately trended down to a lack of physicality. Neither side of the ball established the toughness needed to compete with the Wildcats.
