Kentucky’s defensive front is having a good season in 2025. That unit produced its signature performance of the season in a 10-3 win over Auburn. Facing a new starting quarterback and struggling offensive line, UK totally took away the traditional run game (82 yards on 22 carries from Auburn’s tailbacks) and consistently got home in pass rush.
The Cats dominated in the trenches.
UK finished the games with 12 tackles for loss, seven sacks, four pass breakups, and 26 pressures in 44 dropbacks. Auburn simply had no answers for this front. Saturday was a collective team effort with a lot of different players pitching in.
