Ground game and a dominant defense grind out an SEC win

Well, that was ugly. In front of 54,269 fans on a fall night that was absolutely dominated by blustering conditions, Kentucky had to turn to survival mode to grind out a 14-7 victory over a pesky Vanderbilt squad. Once again, Kentucky got shaky quarterback play that included two first quarter turnovers. With Vanderbilt eating up clock in the first half and the wind dominating the conditions, another great game by Benny Snell led Kentucky to a victory. Thanks to another great defensive performance, UK is still on track to play Georgia for the SEC East title on November 3rd.
