The Miami RedHawks held their own during the first 30 minutes of their contest against the Kentucky Wildcats. The game was tied and 7-7, and then again at 10-10, before the Wildcats were able to snag a field goal right before the half and take a 13-10 lead into the locker room.

However, it didn’t take long for UK to separate themselves in the second half - scoring 14 points in just over a minute. First, the second half kickoff was returned 100-yards for a touchdown. Then, on Miami’s second play of the half, Jaylon Bester fumbled which was scooped up by the Wildcats and returned down to the 8-yard line.
