Comments
Vanderbilt managed just 128 yards total offense in the Commodores’ 56-0 loss in Gainesville last weekend. Vandy was playing third and fourth string QBs. This week the ‘Dores will have their No. 1 QB Riley Neal back for Kentucky. UK has had a nightmare season with multiple injuries to QBs. However, the Wildcats have been able to eek out four wins riding their very tough defense. Kentucky probably wins this one but it’s not set in stone.
