The offensive outing against South Carolina was as poor as we’ve seen it; Eddie Gran compared the feeling to the 2016 Florida game. In case you’ve blocked that game from your memory, that’s when the Cats fell 45-7 in Gainesville for their 30th consecutive loss to the Gators.
But this time was different. In fact, the last two (ok, maybe three) weeks have been different.
To follow up last week’s 1-for-12 performance against Mississippi State, Kentucky went just 2-for-15 on third downs Saturday night against the Gamecocks. That’s good for 3-for-27 (11 percent) over the last two weeks.
