LEXINGTON - Here are three keys for Kentucky football to take down archrival Louisville in the 2019 Governor’s Cup game:

1. Limit the big plays

Louisville enters the game ranked 11th nationally in plays of at least 20 yards (71), but Kentucky ranks 20th nationally in fewest plays of at least 20 yards surrendered (39).

Something has to give, and whichever side is able to live up to its reputation has an inside track to victory.
