If, for some reason, someone came up to me 4 weeks ago and said that the 2020 Missouri-Kentucky team featured one team running the ball 61 times for 222 yards and 2 touchdowns while possessing the ball for over 40 minutes, I would have told you that Kentucky won comfortably.
After outlasting LSU in a 45-41 track meet, Coach Drinkwitz and the Missouri Fightin’ Football Tigers pulled off their quick-strike-big-play mask, revealing...gasp!...a clock-controlling, ground-and-pound team that was underneath all along!
Kentucky loves to have their opponents throw the ball. They recruit killer pass rushers to pair with an excellent secondary and just wait for them to freak out and start slinging it.
