Kentucky football still finding offensive footing ahead of SEC play

Kentucky football defeated the visiting Akron Zips 35-3 at Kroger Field on Saturday, Sept. 16, to improve to 3-0 ahead of SEC play.

Kentucky opened the game strong when quarterback Devin Leary completed a pass to running back transfer Ray Davis for a 39-yard gain.

Shortly after, Leary found sophomore tight end Josh Kattus to give the latter his first career touchdown. The play also marked Kentucky’s first opening quarter touchdown this season.

Unfortunately for the Wildcats, the offense didn’t meet paydirt again until the final seconds of the second quarter.
