Since UK stunned Alabama in 1997, one of the biggest wins of the Hal Mumme era and in UK history, the Cats and Crimson Tide have played a total of six times. And while UK will be huge underdogs this weekend and likely in every contest from 1997 to present, we actually haven’t done all that bad against ‘Bama, especially when you compare it to other SEC teams over the last 20 years — looking at you Tennessee. Yes, UK is 0-6 since that 1997 win but it hasn’t all been blowouts and embarrassments. A look back:
2003: Alabama 27, Kentucky 17 (Tuscaloosa)
Let’s be fair about this game.
