Breaking down the numbers of a mind-boggling loss for Kentucky football

Statistically, I don’t even know if Kentucky football’s 42-41 loss is possible. It couldn’t be, right?

On offense, the Wildcats absolutely dominated the line of scrimmage, gashing the Ole Miss defense for a whopping 559 total yards, including 408 on the ground.

Individually, three different Kentucky players rushed for over 115 yards, with Chris Rodriguez leading the way with 133 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries, followed by Terry Wilson with 129 yards and three touchdowns on 22 carries, and AJ Rose with 117 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries. Kavosiey Smoke was the lone rotation back to miss that 100-yard mark, and he missed the entire second half with a rib injury.
