Well here's one 'bad' thing that happened for Kentucky football on Saturday, if you can even call it that.

Not much went wrong for the Wildcats in their rivalry game against Louisville, a 45-13 stomping of the Cardinals. But possibly the most legendary UK player of all time lost a record he's held for 21 years.

In the second half of LSU's game against Texas A&M, Tigers quarterback Joe Burrow broke Tim Couch's singleseason SEC passing yards record, a mark he set in 1998.
