Summary

Mark Stoops kicked off his eleventh season in Lexington with a win. Like most opening games, there were sloppy mental mistakes, but Kentucky still defeated Ball State 44-14 at Kroger Field. Brad White’s defense provided the spark by creating two first half turnovers that resulted in points. The Cats also picked up a special teams touchdown, overcompensating for a lackluster debut by Devin Leary during Liam Coen‘s return to the sideline. The Kentucky quarterback completed 18-of-31 passes for 243 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Ray Davis was Kentucky’s leading rusher with 14 carries for 112 yards and two touchdowns, including a 30-yarder in the final minute that meant a little more for those who invested in UK -26.5. It was not a smooth offensive operation, but the Wildcats did enough to leave Kroger Field with a comfortable win.
