It was a big day for Kentucky’s seniors in win over Middle Tennessee

It was a good day to be a Kentucky senior at Kroger Field on Saturday.

The biggest plays — the biggest moments — of the No. 17 Cats’ 34-23 victory over Middle Tennessee all came for the UK seniors, including two new quarterback sacks records for linebacker Josh Allen.

Kentucky (8-3) led by as many as 17 points early before the Blue Raiders came roaring back, pulling within eight points early in the fourth quarter behind Brent Stockstill.

The big Senior Day started with senior safety Mike Edwards snagging an early Stockstill pass out of the air with one hand and taking it back 66 yards for the touchdown.
