Playing at Kroger Field for the final time, the Wildcat seniors made history. Kentucky defeated Middle Tennessee State 34-23 to improve to 8-3, UK’s first eight-win season since 1984. It wasn’t the only record broken at Kroger Field.
Two defensive stars entered elite company. Mike Edwards had 12 tackles, two for loss, to become just the second UK defensive back to record more than 300 career tackles. Edwards started the game with a Pick Six on the first drive and a forced fumble on the second. Josh Allen snapped UK’s career and single-season sack records after taking down Brent Stockstill twice.
