The situation would deteriorate further in the following two weeks.
Georgia managed to put up 10 points quickly before halftime, turning what could have been a blowout into a lopsided defeat. Kentucky, after holding a 14-0 lead, quickly found themselves trailing 20-14, as a two-minute touchdown drive and a turnover on their first possession of the second half shifted the momentum in Missouri’s favor.
Kentucky is struggling during the critical Middle 8 period, and this needs to improve soon. If the Wildcats don’t make significant progress in key moments of the game, more losses could be on the horizon.
