Result:
WIN

The Kentucky Wildcats have gone 4-20 the last two seasons. Mark Stoops took over this program just about a year and a half ago, and you can already see the beginning of change with this Kentucky program. Stoops has recruited hard and strong with a top 20 recruiting class, and now has plenty of talent. You also have to remember that last year Miami, Ohio came here and provided the Wildcats with their only win against a FBS team in 41-7 whitewashing. QB Patrick Towles looks like he could be a tremendous upgrade, and while Kentucky will struggle in the SEC, they should add some early wins to grow some confidence and be more competitive. Ohio has gone to five straight bowl games, but they have lost almost the entire offense, including QB Tyler Tettleton. The Bobcats can defend, but where is the offense? They fumbled four times vs. Kent State in a 3-point win last week, but they may have to come from behind and throw the ball here against a very good pass-rushing Kentucky team. The Wildcats fit into a huge 92-28 ATS situation, and this should be a big home win for them. Take Kentucky.
