The Kentucky Wildcats continue a road trip this week with a visit to Columbia, MO to take on the Missouri Wildcats. Kentucky comes into Missouri two games above .500 following a 38 point blowout loss in Tennessee. Defensively Kentucky struggled immensely as Tennessee accumulated 422 total yards of offense to score 44 points in the game following a 27 point first half.
The Kentucky offense struggled immensely with only 205 yards of offense including an abysmal 98 through the air following three turnovers to score only six points in the game. Quarterback Will Levis completed 16 of 27 passes for 98 yards but threw three interceptions and ran the ball five times for -22 yards as well. Chris Rodriguez Jr. proved to be the only bright spot in the Kentucky offense with 64 yards and one score on 15 carries.
The Missouri Tigers go back home this week at an even 4-4 on the year riding a two game win streak following a 13 point road win over South Carolina. Missouri controlled the game holding South Carolina to 203 yards and 10 points after forcing 2 turnovers, while holding the Gamecocks to only 5 third Down conversions.
