Big Blue Nation’s wild dreams of the SEC Championship game and a spot in the College Football Playoff are officially dead, but it was fun while it lasted. It was really, really, really fun.
Before we get to what went wrong in the 34-17 loss to the Bulldogs, I think we should all take a moment to appreciate how we were even in the very unfamiliar position in the first place. Kentucky entered the game with a 7-1 record and a ninth-place spot in the College Football Rankings. Say that out loud to yourself. Do it. Right now.
