So many college football pundits wondered what Kentucky might look like against Mike Leach’s air raid offense this week. To the surprise of many, the Wildcats defense completely shut it down allowing no offensive points from the Mississippi St. Bulldogs. Kentucky won their first game of the season Saturday night 24-2.
It was a great turnaround from two weeks of struggling against the pass. While the Wildcats offense did not set any records by any means (only 157 total yards), they took care of business enough for Kentucky to avoid going 0-3 on the season.
