Kentucky has reached the bye week with a 5-2 (2-2) record. Mark Stoops‘ 11th team in Lexington still has plenty to prove with five power conference games remaining on the schedule. The passing game needs to make some significant strides and the defense must return to form after allowing 89 total points over the last two weeks. There is a lot to fix over at the Joe Craft Football Training Facility.
But there was some good flashed in the first seven games of the season. At the midway point, tailback Ray Davis and cornerback Maxwell Hairston are receiving some recognition for a strong start to the season.
