It was a gloomy, rainy November Nooner at Commonwealth Stadium and the Cats were getting crushed by the Commodores. On this date in 2012, Kentucky lost 40-0 to Vanderbilt.
Current SEC Network broadcast Jordan Rodgers threw for a pair of first half touchdowns and the Commodores reached the end zone on four of their first five drives to take a 27-0 halftime lead. The Wildcats made mistakes on all three phases of the game, paving the way for the worst loss to Vanderbilt in 96 years. The following day, Joker Phillips was fired.
It is one of the most miserable losses an historically miserable fanbase has ever witnessed.
