Louisville crushes Kentucky’s bowl game hopes

By Joshua Huff

Highlights

  • Kentucky recorded three interceptions in the first half.
  • Louisville scored 31-straight points after trailing Kentucky 24-7 to begin the second half.
  • Louisville out-gained Kentucky 325 to 81 total yards in the second half.
  • Quarterback Lamar Jackson rushed 17 times for 186 yards as Louisville finished with a season-high 314 rushing yards.

Faced with the prospect of ending the season one game shy of bowl eligibility for a second-straight year, Kentucky proved to the doubters during Saturday’s 38-24 loss to Louisville in Commonwealth Stadium that the Cats are like cheese without the corners; they’ll never be a slice.
