Any Kentuckian will tell you to win a horse race or have them work on the farm, you better have the thoroughbreds to get you to the finish line and a stable of horses to get the job done.
In the case of the Kentucky Wildcats Saturday in Tuscaloosa, the Alabama Crimson Tide had both the thoroughbreds and the stable to win the game, blasting the Wildcats 63-3.
The Wildcats (3-5) entered the matchup with the top-ranked Crimson Tide missing 10 players from its roster, including All-American punter Max Duffy and leading rusher Chris Rodriguez, leaving UK shorthanded before the opening kickoff.
