That Kentucky touchdown hurt. But if you'd told me we'd be up 14-7 in the first quarter I'd have taken it. Sure, it feels like the a huge momentum shift so now we need to answer. Here we go:
• DJ gets stuffed inside the 20 on the kickoff return. You can feel the Wildcats come to life after that kick block and touchdown.
• 8:40: 1st & 10, Nickson skips a pass to Justin Wheeler. 2nd & 10.
• 8:25: Hawkins darts for the first down. He gets decked like he always does against the Cats, but he's got a first down.
• 8:07: Hawkins takes a screen pass and gets maybe a yard. We're midway through the second quarter and our defense has been on the field for six plays.
• 7:20: Nickson on the keeper and gets about 8. The Cats look tired on defense and Nickson is juking and jiving against them. 3rd & 2 on the VU37.
• 6:34: Jared Hawkins is runnin' wild! He's in Wildcat territory. 1st & 10 on the UK 44. Nickson slips and down for no gain. 2nd & 10.
• 5:25: Hawkins finds a seam and gets about three. He's running well. But it's 3rd & 8 on the UK 42. DJ's in the game.
• 4:48: Ball tipped and incomplete. Lindley on Moore is a good matchup. Upson's punt rolls through the end zone. We might could have caught up with that one.
• 1st & 10 for the Cats on the UK20. Let's get a turnover. Or at the least, let's get to halftime with a seven-point lead and then make some of those adjustments we were famous for in September and early October.
• DJ intercepts a pass from Randall Cobb. He's caught three passes in this game, two touchdowns and one interception.
• 4:19: 1st & 10 on about the 20. Moore still on the field. Nickson takes off for about 20 and is down at the one-yard line. 1st & goal at the one.
• 3:43: Jennings stuffed. Still 2nd & goal. I'm confident in our abilities once we get inside the red zone. Nickson spins and lobs it to Barden, who makes a great one-handed catch and dives for the end zone. TOUCHDOWN! Actually, the play is being reviewed. His knee may have been down. Bob Davie's not sure the evidence is indisputable.
• "After review, the play stands as called." The fans don't like it. I do. Hahnfeldt hits the PAT. We're up 21-7.
Hey, we've scored more than 14 points in a game! Do you believe in miracles!

Have you seen the Troy score?
No, but one of my kids just said Troy's winning. How cool would that be?
Troy is up 24-3 at the half. It would be way cool. Wish I were in Baton Rouge right now.
