Recap: Tennessee beats Kentucky 17-13

Things started bad, and then they stayed bad most of the first half.

But Tennessee came alive in the second half and defeated Kentucky 17-13.

Kentucky took the opening drive 75 yards in 10 minutes and 18 seconds for a touchdown. Tennessee followed that with a 3-and-out, and then Paxton Brooks dropped his snap and his punt was blocked.

Kentucky took the next drive 24 yards in two plays in 48 seconds for another touchdown. Darel Middleton blocked the extra point, but the Wildcats had a two-score lead mid-way through the first quarter.
