The Kentucky Wildcats go into Knoxville and knock off the 18th ranked Vols for a historic win, the Wildcats’ first win in Knoxville since 1984.
It was a rough start offensively for the Wildcats, but thanks to Kelvin Joseph and Jamin Davis’ two pick-sixes, Kentucky was able to generate some points early to set up for a dominating offensive second half.
Kentucky just looked like the better team for the full four quarters and it was glorious to seer Tennessee volunteer to get blasted by Kentucky in football.
Kentucky has allowed a total of 9 points, has 10 takeaways, and 2 defensive touchdown’s over the last two games.
Terry Wilson also bounced back in a big way against the Vols after a poor showing last week against Mississippi State.
Here is how social reacted to the Big Blue Beatdown:

Vince Marrow puts arm around Mark Stoops. After this, Vince might ask for another raise. #bbn #ukfootball

Terry Wilson is going to be the QB that wins at Florida and at Knoxville. Why would ANYONE think his job is in jeopardy???

Just saw a great performance at Tennessee by @UKFootball. Congratulations to @UKCoachStoops and his men.

Now on to our second practice today. Developing new habits and getting into great shape is never easy but we’re on a great path!!!
Has there been a UK coordinator to have a better back to back game like Brad White? 1 offensive TD allowed in 8 quarters and 9 turnovers vs Miss State and Tennessee.

Hearing “Go Big Blue” at Neyland Stadium is a first.

Right?! The weak ass defense he played against only had six interceptions last week. Great point.

"Guys are playing with good vision. We're playing better team defense. Everybody is in their position, guys are playing hard. When you're in good position and guys play hard, good things will happen."
What Brad White has done the last 2 weeks is special. Giving up only 7 points in 2 games! Fantastic. They scored more than they gave up. Congrats to the entire staff and team.
