DeAndre Square saves the day vs. Iowa after being ruled out with injury

In what could end up being his last game as a Wildcat, DeAndre Square saved the day with a game-sealing interception to give No. 22 Kentucky a 20-17 VRBO Citrus Bowl win over the No. 15 Iowa Hawkeyes.

After the defense gave Will Levis, Wan’Dale Robinson and Chris Rodriguez one last opportunity to push the Wildcats ahead, they had to stifle the Hawkeyes offense one more time. After Spencer Petras led his offense to UK’s 40-yard line, a key pressure from Yusuf Corker forced an errant throw that allowed Square to dive underneath it for the takeaway.
