Playmakers are Coming from an Unlikely Place

@UKFootballIt took one play for preseason expectations to be validated – the offensive playmakers can do things we haven’t seen here in a long time.

It’s hard to top Boom’s 75-yard score, but even so, the explosive plays have been fewer and further in between. Sometimes Patrick misses a little long or a little short; sometimes his receivers simply drop the ball, or slow down at the end of their routes; many times last week, the line simply didn’t give the offense the opportunity to make the big play. Whatever the cause may be, it’s been gone since the first half at South Carolina.

While the offense has struggled, the defense has excelled. A perceived preseason weakness has kept the Cats close…
