Things went from bad to worse. The Kentucky offense was lifeless for 20 minutes, gaining only 16 yards in the first four possessions. That’s when Cutter Boley appeared to find something.
The Kentucky quarterback had an explosive pass for a first down. On the ensuing snap, he evaded a defender and found an open target for a 13-yard gain. After the pass, he got rocked. His helmet went flying, and he was sent to the turf. Boley spent time in the medical tent, but was able to return on the following possession.
In his absence, Zach Calzada was picked off.
