It took Mark Stoops’ Kentucky football team a little while to wake up, but the Wildcats are cooking with gas entering intermission against Youngstown State. Kentucky has a 21-0 lead over the Penguins, who will receive the ball first to start the second half.
The UK offense struggled to continue momentum on the ground and Will Levis took three early sacks. Defense and special teams gave Kentucky a leg up, blocking a punt and preventing the Penguins from getting a first down until there were five minutes remaining in the second quarter. Kentucky appeared to force a pair of turnovers near the end of the half, but there wasn’t enough evidence on replay to overturn the calls on the field.
