Today’s history lesson: How this season stacks up with the rest

It’s been a big couple of weeks for the Kentucky Wildcats football program. With a monumental win over Florida and a blowout against Murray State, the Cats are 3-0 for the second consecutive season. And while it’s the first time that’s happened since the 2007-08 season, there have been plenty of other record-breaking performances so far this year.

Kentucky’s defensive improvements have been a major storyline since the preseason, but yesterday’s performance showcased how strong the defense can be, especially when compared to defensive performances from previous years. With future NFL picks like Josh Allen and Mike Edwards on their side, Kentucky fans can finally feel confident in the defense’s ability to keep the Cats in the game, especially if and when Benny Snell or Terry Wilson have an off-day.
