The game that changed everything: How 1 loss to Ole Miss altered Kentucky's trajectory

It was October 1, 2022. The No. 7 Kentucky Wildcats were 4-0, traveling to face No. 14 Ole Miss with dreams of ascending to the top of the college football world. For a moment, it seemed they had arrived.

Trailing 22-19 late, Will Levis drove deep into Ole Miss territory twice. And twice, they walked away with 0 poins. After fumbling Will Levis hit Barion Brown on a 51-yard screen to the Ole Miss 7. They hurried to the line and Levis found Dane Key, who just scored his first Nebrasa touchdown which we talk about here, and the Cats were partying.
