Cats Build Character, Beat Miss. State 40-38

Chet White | UK Athletics

The resilient Kentucky Wildcats outlasted the Mississippi State Bulldogs 40-38 on the heels and toe of kicker Austin MacGinnis’ 51-yard field goal that barely crossed the uprights as the clock turned triple zeroes. It wasn’t pretty; but it sort of was in a strange reversal of karma kind of way. Over the years the BBN has been witness to all too many games of the same nature that did not result in UK’s favor in the Win/Loss column.

QB Stephen Johnson moves to 4-1 as the Wildcat signal caller with Saturday’s win over Mississippi State.
