A ray of sunlight nearly broke through the overcast skies that cloud the Kentucky football program. The Wildcats were three yards away from scoring a touchdown to take a lead in overtime. They had four plays to get there, but never crossed the goal line.
Kentucky dominated the team ranked No. 1 in the preseason AP Poll in nearly every facet of the game (with special teams as the exception). The Cats had twice as many yards and limited Texas to only eight first downs, yet it didn’t matter. They still fell 16-13 in overtime.
Fans left Kroger Field in agony, again.
