In the second decade of the 21st Century, the University of Kentucky football experience has been animated by the attempt to end negative streaks.
Joker Phillips, Randall Cobb and the 2010 Wildcats took care of one such streak, rallying to beat then-South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier 31-28 after the Cats had lost 17 straight to the Head Ball Coach.
In 2011, Matt Roark, wide receiver turned emergency quarterback, directed Kentucky to one of the epic moments in its sports history, snapping a 26-game losing skid to Tennessee with a 10-7 shocker.
