Even the most optimistic Kentucky Wildcats fan went into Saturday’s match-up with #1 Alabama with throttled expectations.
The monster 31 point spread said about all that needed to be said about the Cats’ chances to win the game in Tuscaloosa. Then there was the depleted roster due to COVID protocol that made the task even taller.
Despite all that there was still hope that some positive takeaways could be gained, even if victory was out of reach.
Ultimately the demoralizing 63-3 loss made it difficult to spin as anything but that, demoralizing. Now dozens of questions linger moving forward but the most important thing for Mark Stoops and his staff is getting healthy.
