Mark Stoops and the Kentucky Wildcats had to grind out a win on the road at South Carolina. If history is any indication of what’s to come, you should expect another close call when Kentucky hosts Florida Saturday night at Kroger Field.
Kentucky’s 16-10 victory over South Carolina improved UK’s record in one-score games to 18-7, dating back to 2016. Two of those losses were to Florida. In Stoops’ eight matchups Florida, half have been decided by one score or less. That does not include Kentucky’s win in the Swamp that was stretched to an 11-point victory when Davonte Robinson recorded a scoop and score at the horn.
