THE PHILLIPS FACTOR As a Wildcat player, assistant coach/offensive coordinator and head coach, Joker Phillips has played a role in some of the greatest seasons and biggest wins in Kentucky football history–from a victory over #1 ranked LSU to five-straight bowl games, to milestone wins over South Carolina (2010) and Tennessee (2011). During his current term at UK, he also has helped develop several future NFL standouts, including (at right) second-round draft pick Randall Cobb, who starred as a rookie for the Green Bay Packers.

2012 OUTLOOK THE 2012 SEASON

Coach Joker Phillips feels a sense of momentum as his Kentucky football team heads into a new season. The Wildcats finished 2011 well with a strong performance at Georgia and a season-ending win over Tennessee. Followed by a solid recruiting class, progress in spring practice and productive offseason workouts, Phillips is optimistic as he anticipates the coming campaign. “I definitely have (optimism) with the enthusiasm and the excitement about how we finished the season,” the third-year coach said. “We played really well against Georgia, we played good enough to win in the Tennessee game. Those two games alone gave us a lot of momentum. We had a lot of young players playing in those games. For those guys to go in and make plays gave them nothing but confidence. “We got better in the spring on fundamentals and technique and also made progress in playing physically.” Phillips says the team must keep going in that direction during preseason practice.

Quarterback Morgan Newton returns to practice in August after missing spring practice. He has started 17 games in his career and thrown for 1,764 yards and 14 touchdowns as a Wildcat. 6

“We have to continue to get fundamentally better all across the board – offense, defense and special teams. If we can get fundamentally and assignment sound, we have enough athletes to be a good football team,” Phillips said.

OFFENSE Phillips’ believes the first order of business on offense is to continue building a passing attack that was inconsistent a year ago. “We have to be able to throw the ball more efficiently,” Phillips said. “We gathered an idea of who some of our playmakers are (during the spring). We have to put them in position to make plays and get it in their hands.” In stark contrast to a year ago, when UK had to replace the starting quarterback, tailback and top two receivers from the 2010 team, the Wildcat playmakers return mostly intact from last fall. Injuries struck the quarterback position last season as Morgan Newton and Maxwell Smith shared the position. Newton, now entering his senior campaign, completed 47 percent of his throws for 793 yards and eight touchdowns. He’s also a dangerous runner with 272 yards and two TDs on the ground. However, he did not have contact in the spring while rehabilitating a shoulder injury but will rejoin the competition in August. That left Smith as the starting QB for three games late last season and all of the spring. He completed 54.9 percent for 819 yards and four touchdowns en route to Freshman All-Southeastern Conference honors. Sophomore Jacob Russell, a transfer from Eastern Kentucky, has good size and showed passing and running ability in practice. Incoming freshmen Patrick Towles and Jalen Whitlow will get a look when practice begins in August. The QBs will throw to a more experienced and potentially more explosive set of receivers. Senior La’Rod King led the team in every receiving category last season with 40 catches for 598 yards and seven touchdowns. He combines size, hands and speed with the ability to make contested catches. Seniors Gene McCaskill, E.J. Fields and Aaron Boyd bring more experience. McCaskill has been the most accomplished with 41 catches in his career. Some exciting youngsters challenge the veterans, sophomore Demarco Robinson and a trio of redshirt freshmen, Daryl Collins, Rashad Cunningham and converted quarterback Bookie Cobbins. Robinson starred in the spring game with nine catches for 146 yards and two touchdowns. The tight end position has plenty of experience returning with juniors Tyler Robinson, Jordan Aumiller and Anthony Kendrick and sophomore Ronnie Shields. Robinson, with 19 career catches and 2 TDs, and Aumiller (18 career catches, 1 TD) have been the most productive. Shields made a strong move in the spring. Like the quarterbacks, the tailback position was beset by injuries last season. Four returning players handled the role, including senior CoShik Williams (486 yards, 3 TD), juniors Jonathan George (208 yards, 2 TD) and Raymond Sanders (155 yards), and soph Josh Clemons (279 yards, 2 TD). They will continue their competition in August. D.J. Warren won the starting fullback role as a true freshman. A year of experience and a year in the weight room will help his blocking and he is also a good runner and pass catcher when called upon. The forward wall will be led by senior right guard Larry Warford, who has earned second-team All-SEC honors each of the past two seasons, and Matt Smith, a two-year starter at center.


DEFENSE In 2011, UK’s first season under the system of defensive coordinator Rick Minter, the Wildcats showed a greater ability in creating turnovers that Coach Joker Phillips was seeking. Minter often has said that his teams usually make a big improvement in their second season, once the players have the system thoroughly ingrained. But that will be a challenge in 2012 after the departure of six starters, most notably All-America linebacker Danny Trevathan and AllSEC safety/linebacker Winston Guy, who were the top two tacklers in the SEC last season. Cornerbacks Randall Burden and Anthony Mosley, along with reliable middle linebacker Ronnie Sneed, also have graduated. “We’ll have a lot more younger guys playing on defense this season but I’m excited about the ability we’ve seen,” Phillips said. “That’s why you saw 15 or 20 guys play defense with the first team in the spring.” Fortunately, almost all of the defensive line returns from last season, featuring six players who have starting experience. Senior end Collins

“We have to continue to get fundamentally better all across the board – offense, defense and special teams. If we can get fundamentally and assignment sound, we have enough athletes to be a good football team.” – Head Coach Joker Phillips Ukwu continues to develop as a big-play performer. He made 28 tackles last season, including 6.5 for loss and 2.5 quarterback sacks. Junior starting tackles Mister Cobble and Donte Rumph posted 33 and 31 tackles, respectively, and each had three TFL and a QB sack. Senior Taylor Wyndham (14 tackles) brings plenty of experience to the end opposite Ukwu. A couple of sophomores, end Mike Douglas (16 tackles, 2 TFL, one sack) and tackle Christian Coleman (21 tackles) saw spot starting duty last season and showed exciting potential. Additional young players will push for playing time in the line. The hybrid linebacker/end is led by sophomore Alvin Dupree, who came on strong late in the season when he started the final three games. Dupree racked up 21 tackles on the season, including 2.5 quarterback sacks. Junior Avery Williamson got a lot of playing time as a reserve middle linebacker last season and piled up 49 tackles, 1.5 for loss and made an interception. Several more young linebackers will get a chance to make their mark, including sophomores Malcolm McDuffen, Tyler Brause and TraVaughn Paschal and redshirt freshmen Demarius Rancifer and Jabari Johnson. More young players will man the hybrid linebacker/safety spot. Miles Simpson, who came out of spring as the starter, made five tackles last season. Redshirt freshman Josh Forrest and junior-college transfer Kory Brown are athletic contenders. The cornerback positions must be rebuilt after the departure of both starters. Senior Cartier Rice has been a reliable reserve in his career, with one interception and four pass breakups, and claimed a regular role at one corner. Redshirt freshman Marcus Caffey leads the other corner after a strong spring performance. Sophs Eric Dixon and Eric Simmons are the top reserves. Both of the starters return at the deep safety positions with seniors Martavius Neloms and Mikie Benton. Neloms is the team’s leading returning tackler. He made 71 stops last season and added 2.5 tackles for loss, five pass breakups, an interception and a fumble return for a touchdown. Benton made 28 tackles and led the team in pass breakups with seven. Two sophomore safeties, Ashely Lowery and Glenn Faulkner, showed good potential last season. Junior Dakotah Tyler returns after missing last season and provides some experienced depth.

THE 2012 SEASON

Sophomore left guard Darrian Miller, redshirt freshman left guard Zach West and junior right tackle Kevin Mitchell emerged as starters at the end of spring. Senior tackle Trevino Woods, sophomore guard Teven EatmonNared and redshirt freshman Shaquille Love provide depth while pushing for starting roles.

SPECIAL TEAMS

Senior Cartier Rice (No. 35) is the only cornerback with game experience at that position. He has one interception and four pass breakups during his career.

There is much work to do in this area after the loss of second-team AllSEC punter Ryan Tydlacka, snapper Jon Thomas and the starting kickoff and punt returners. Junior Joe Mansour, talented redshirt freshman Jay Willmott and incoming freshman Landon Foster will duel for the punting duties. Kelly Mason led the snapping job at the conclusion of spring. Ashely Lowery, Raymond Sanders and Demarco Robinson returned some kickoffs last season and Gene McCaskill has some game experience on punt returns. Senior Craig McIntosh has handled placekicking the last two seasons, making 23 of 29 field goals. His long has been 50 yards and he has the leg to make them from longer distances.

CAT SCRATCHES THE 2012 SEASON

PLENTY

OF

CONTENDERS

AT

QB

At the end of last season, Coach Joker Phillips found himself without a healthy quarterback available to play the 2011 finale against Tennessee. Phillips overcame the obstacle by converting wide receiver Matt Roark to QB and the Wildcats pulled off a stunning upset. Fortunately, no such maneuvering should be necessary this season as Phillips enters preseason practice with five signal-callers.

Senior Morgan Newton started the first eight games last season and completed 47.7 percent of his passes for 793 yards and eight touchdowns. He should be ready to go after missing the last month of the season and all of spring practice while recovering from a shoulder injury. In Newton’s place, sophomore Maxwell Smith was the starter for three games and all of spring practice. He completed 54.9 percent for 819 yards and four TDs last season. Sophomore Jacob Russell is now eligible after going through a mandatory redshirt following his transfer from Eastern Kentucky. Similar to Newton, he is a big body with a good combination of run-pass ability. Two true freshmen, both coming off high school state championships, join the competition. Patrick Towles was a Parade magazine All-American and “Mr. Football” in Kentucky while leading Highlands HS to three-consecutive state titles. Jalen Whitlow split time at QB and receiver while helping lead Prattville HS to the Alabama Class AAAAAA state crown.

NEW “D” PRODUCES MORE

TURNOVERS

A goal of the new defense installed last season by coordinator Rick Minter was to increase turnovers and he got the results he sought. UK claimed 24 turnovers last season, 15 interceptions and nine fumble recoveries. The Wildcats had just 15 takeaways in the previous season (2010).

POSITION CHANGES Several Wildcats made significant position changes in the spring: · In the offensive line, Kevin Mitchell moved from left guard to right tackle and begins August as the starter · Marcus Caffey, amidst a logjam of six scholarship tailbacks, got a look at cornerback and played well · Another talented redshirt freshman, Bookie Cobbins, moved from quarterback to wide receiver · Eric Dixon, who saw some playing time at safety as a true freshman, switched to cornerback

COACHING CHANGES There have been two changes on the full-time coaching staff since the end of the 2011 season. Mike Cassity, former Wildcat player (1971-74) and assistant coach (1979-81) has returned to coach the defensive backs. There are now four former Wildcat players on the UK staff – head coach Joker Phillips, special teams coordinator/tight ends coach Greg Nord, linebackers coach Chuck Smith and Cassity. Pat Washington is the new wide receivers coach. Washington and offensive coordinator Randy Sanders spent 11 seasons together on the Tennessee staff. Washington also has SEC coaching experience at Auburn and Mississippi State.

D-LINE

Josh Clemons returns to practice in August after sitting out the spring while recovering from injury.

2012 KENTUCKY FOOTBALL

TO

LEAD D-FENSE

The defensive line looms as a potential strength for the Wildcat stop troops in 2011. The line has a lot of experience with three ends who have been starters – seniors Collins Ukwu and Taylor Wyndham and sophomore Mike Douglas, along with three tackles who have starting experience – juniors Mister Cobble and Donte Rumph, plus sophomore Christian Coleman. Cobble had 33 tackles last season, including three for loss, while Rumph had 31 tackles and three TFL. Ukwu led the linemen in big plays, numbering 6.5 TFL and 2.5 quarterback sacks.


OF THE

RECEIVERS

La’Rod King returns for his senior season already ranking as one of the top pass catchers in school history. King’s numbers have increased each season, showing the progression that every player hopes to display. He caught 40 passes for 598 yards and seven touchdowns last year. King’s career totals feature 86 receptions for 1,218 yards and 13 TDs. He ranks 17th in career catches, 19th in yardage and eighth in TDs. Another productive campaign could land him in the UK top 10 in all three categories.

WARFORD

A

PLAYMAKER,

TOO

Trevino Woods, along with student assistant coach Glenn Holt, took a class in the Czech Republic. The trip was led by Professor Patricia Dyk through UK’s Study Abroad program. · Over the last six seasons, Kentucky has come from behind in the fourth quarter to win 14 games, including once last season. Trailing Ole Miss 13-10, UK scored 20 unanswered points in the fourth quarter for the 30-13 win. · UK has ranked in the nation’s top 25 in attendance every year but two since Commonwealth Stadium was expanded in 1999. · The Kentucky cheerleaders have won an unprecedented 19 national championships, including 15 of the last 18, at the annual Universal Cheerleaders Association championships.

One of the goals of spring practice was to identify more playmakers on offense. Coach Joker Phillips gave a reminder that big-play performers can be more than the traditional passers, runners or receivers. “Offensive linemen can be playmakers, too, and Larry Warford is one of our best playmakers,” Phillips said. Warford, a senior offensive guard, has earned second-team AllSoutheastern Conference honors each of the past two seasons. He has notable speed and quickness for a player his size. Combining his athleticism with his sizeable frame, Warford has led the team in knockdown blocks each of the past two seasons.

THE 2012 SEASON

KING

INJURY UPDATE Five players missed the contact portions of spring practice while recovering from injuries incurred during the 2011 season – quarterback Morgan Newton, tailback Josh Clemons, offensive lineman Tyler Davenport, defensive end Collins Ukwu and linebacker Jabari Johnson. All five are expected to be fully ready when practice resumes in August.

SCHEDULE NOTES Kentucky opens the season by playing 10 consecutive weeks before the team’s open date. After the additions of Missouri and Texas A&M, the revamped conference schedule calls for the Wildcats to play SEC opponents for seven-consecutive weeks -- the only league school that will have to take on such a gauntlet. Kentucky begins the 2012 season on Sunday, Sept. 2 at Louisville. This will be the seventh time since 2002 that the game has been played on a Sunday. UK’s home opener will be Sept. 8 against Kent State. The Wildcats last played the Golden Flashes in 2007 ... UK hosts in-state foe WKU on Sept. 15 in the third of a four-game series. The conference slate opens at Florida on Sept. 22 ... Arkansas (Oct. 13) replaces LSU as UK’s rotating opponent. UK last played the Razorbacks in 2008 ... Georgia will be the annual Homecoming game on Oct. 20 ... On Oct. 27, UK will play at Missouri for the first time as a conference opponent. The teams have met twice in school history, the season openers in 1965 and 1968. Following 10-straight games, UK’s open date is Nov. 10 ... Senior Day is Nov. 17 as the Wildcats play host to Samford, a first-time opponent ... The regular season concludes Nov. 24 at Tennessee.

CATSCELLANEOUS · Several Wildcats had unique educational opportunities during overseas trips in May. For the second-consecutive year, Coach Joker Phillips went on a service/educational trip to Ethiopia, accompanied this year by Mikie Benton, Matt Smith and Larry Warford. The journey was coordinated by Jason Schlafer, UK associate athletics director. In addition, Wildcats Aaron Boyd, E.J. Fields, Tristian Johnson and

Senior offensive guard Larry Warford has earned second-team All-SEC each of the last two seasons.

HEAD COACH

JOKER PHILLIPS

It was the final game of the 2011 regular season and the Kentucky football team prepared to host its oldest rival, Tennessee. There was but one slight problem. The Wildcats didn’t have a healthy quarterback. UK’s top two QBs were injured and Coach Joker Phillips refused to sacrifice the future of a talented freshman by breaking his redshirt for one game. So, what to do? Once again showing the ability to adapt that he has displayed during his career, Phillips and the UK staff came up with an unlikely maneuver -turn senior wide receiver Matt Roark into a quarterback, give him a limited number of plays to master, and attack the opponent with what basically amounted to the old single-wing offense. The plan worked perfectly. UK’s ground attack controlled the ball for almost 36 minutes, Roark executed the simple game plan without a single turnover, and the Wildcat defense was stalwart. The result was a 10-7 victory, ending a 26-year losing streak against the Volunteers. In recognition of the unorthodox strategy and improbable out-

come, ESPN.com honored Phillips with an SEC “helmet sticker.” The simple strategy enabled Roark and the Wildcats to “play fast,” a trademark philosophy of Phillips. It’s a philosophy he embraces in coaching as well. Phillips has been a bundle of energy since taking over the UK head coaching position on Jan. 6, 2010. From coaching to recruiting to the dozens of personal appearances he has made across the South, Phillips has been tireless in promoting the vision for his passion -- Kentucky football. The foundation of his fervor is easy to see. A native Kentuckian and former Wildcat player, Phillips is only the fifth Kentucky alumnus to become head coach of the Wildcats. Phillips’ appointment also has significance in that he is the Wildcats’ first African-American head football coach and only the second in the history of the Southeastern Conference. Phillips’ first act as head coach was to imprint his personal philosophy, “Operation Win,” on the team -- win in the classroom, win in the community and win on the field. Phillips’ energy has led to some positive results in recruiting and on the field, where Phillips became the first coach in Kentucky history to take a team to a bowl game in his first season. In addition, Phillips won more games than any first-year UK coach since Blanton Collier in 1954. His teams also have broken long-time streaks with wins over South Carolina and Tennessee.

LED UK

TO

HIGHEST POINT TOTAL

IN

SCHOOL HISTORY

Prior to being elevated to head coach, Phillips was on the staff of Coach Rich Brooks from 2003-09, including the last five seasons as offensive coordinator. Named offensive coordinator before the 2005 season, Phillips made an immediate impact as Kentucky improved its scoring average and total offense in each of the first three years under Phillips’ direction. The yearly progression reached its zenith when Kentucky scored a school-record 475 points during its 13-game schedule in 2007, helping spark the Wildcats to a second-consecutive Music City Bowl championship. UK’s average of 36.5 points per game ranked 15th nationally. Total offense also was a highlight of the ’07 season. UK’s total offense of 5,764 yards was the second highest in school history. The average of 443.4 yards per game is fourth in UK annals. Phillips was nationally acclaimed following Kentucky’s 43-37 upset of No. 1 LSU. He was named National Coordinator of the Week by Rivals.com and the National Offensive Coordinator of the Week by the Master Coaches Survey. Phillips’ offensive style has shown flexibility and balance between the run and the pass. During his time as offensive coordinator, UK has had a 3,000-yard passer (André Woodson, who accomplished the feat twice), two 1,000-yard receivers (Keenan Burton and Steve Johnson) and a 1,000-yard rusher (Rafael Little, who reached the mark twice). Balance is shown by the fact that Kentucky led the SEC in passing yardage in 2007 while also rushing for 2,021 yards, 155.5 yards per game and 4.2 yards per attempt. All three rushing marks were UK’s best in a dozen seasons, since 1995. The ’07 season was the first time in school history that UK averaged at least 250 passing yards per game while rushing for at least 150 yards per game. As wide receivers coach, Phillips has mentored some of the best in school history – Burton, Johnson, Dicky Lyons Jr. and Derek Abney. With Burton, Johnson and Lyons leading the way, along with tight end Jacob Tamme and tailback Rafael Little, Kentucky was the only team in the nation in 2007 that had five players with at least 1,000 receiving yards during their careers. Phillips’ players have their names etched into the NCAA, SEC and UK record books. 16

Quotes from January, 2008, when Phillips was named head coach of the future. Quotes are from articles in the Lexington Herald-Leader, Louisville Courier-Journal, Danville Advocate-Messenger, The Cats’ Pause, KentuckySportsReport.com, Nashville Tennessean: • “Phillips’ credentials certainly scream head coach. He’s been an outstanding position coach, ace recruiter, master motivator and his (200607) offenses at UK have been a pair of the best in school history. (His) ability to connect with players, their families and coaches may be his greatest strength.” – Matt May, The Cats’ Pause

Upon the recommendation of Coach Rich Brooks (right), UK Director of Athletics Mitch Barnhart (left) named Phillips as the head coach of the future in Jan. 2008. Brooks and Phillips guided UK to a school-record five-consecuive bowl games.

SHOWED

THE

ABILITY

TO

ADAPT

AND

ADJUST

After massive graduation losses from the ’07 squad – losing Woodson, Burton, Johnson, Tamme and Little to the NFL – Phillips turned in some of his most astute coaching performances. Injuries, inexperience and a disciplinary dismissal forced Phillips and quarterbacks coach Randy Sanders to juggle four QBs -- Mike Hartline, Randall Cobb, Morgan Newton and Will Fidler – in 2008 and 2009. Even though there was a rotation of players in the offense’s most important position, Phillips figured out a way to generate enough points to win seven games both seasons. Despite fielding a virtually new offensive lineup in 2008, and losing his potential starting quarterback on the first day of fall practice, Phillips still managed to finish in the top half of the SEC in scoring offense while helping the Wildcats win a third-consecutive bowl game. The 2009 season showed more of Phillips’ ability to adapt to a changing landscape. After five games, with Hartline as the starting quarterback, Phillips had the perfect balance he was looking for with 167.4 rushing yards and 167.4 passing yards per game. But when Hartline was injured, and a true freshman stepped into the starting role, the Wildcats became tilted heavily toward the run. And, even though everyone in the stadium knew UK had become a runfirst offense, Phillips managed to keep the opponent off-balance and score sufficient points to win five of the last eight games, including ground-breaking victories on the road at Auburn and Georgia. For the season, Kentucky rushed for 191.2 yards per game and a 4.5 average per carry, the team’s best marks in 14 years.

ONE

OF THE

NATION’S TOP RECRUITERS

In addition to his coaching, Phillips also is a highly effective recruiter, as his straightforward, likeable personality earns the trust of young players and their families. He served as UK’s recruiting coordinator in 2003-04, giving up that post because of his additional offensive responsibilities, but continued to be deeply involved in recruiting. Phillips’ abilities in that area have become known across the country, as he has been identified as one of the nation’s top recruiters by SportsIllustrated.com and Rivals.com. Phillips has gained additional coaching experience by working postseason all-star games. He was the winning head coach in the 2005 Magnolia Classic. Following the 2006 season, he was an assistant on the winning squad in the IntaJuice North-South All-Star Game.

• “I just think it was a great move by the university and a great move for the program. Coach Joker was instrumental in my career. He knows how to go out and get players, and he recognizes how to get the best out of the players he brings in. You know the program will be in good hands because he cares so much about Kentucky football.” – All-SEC tight end Jacob Tamme, now with the Denver Broncos

WHAT THEY’VE SAID AND WRITTEN ABOUT JOKER PHILLIPS

• “He has all the charisma a head coach would have. I’m glad Kentucky did what they had to do to keep him, because other people were going to keep coming after him. With Joker Phillips, they’re not just making a good minority hire. They’re making a great hire, period.” – Lou Holtz, longtime head coach and current ESPN analyst • “And when Phillips choked up Friday talking about his home state, and his hometown of Franklin, it reminded you of the Kentucky kids – Andre’ Woodson, Jacob Tamme, Keenan Burton, to name three – who helped turn the program around. They were Kentucky kids who wanted to be here, succeed here and build a foundation for success. Joker Phillips is one of those Kentucky kids. He’s a reason why right now, in football, Kentucky has a good thing going. It’s smart to take advantage of it.” – John Clay, Lexington Herald-Leader • “I felt like he was a guy I could really relate to. When he was recruiting me, he was really open and honest the whole time about me making the best decision for myself and not downplaying anybody else. He just played up Kentucky. I liked that.” – 2009 All-SEC defensive tackle Corey Peters • “Cats are smart to name Phillips future coach” – Louisville CourierJournal headline of a column by Rick Bozich • “There’s not a finer man than Joker Phillips. When he was a kid, he was never in trouble. He hung around the little league park to help kids when he was in high school. He was just a nice kid to be around. You knew he was going to be a good guy. I’m not surprised in the least that he has been this successful.” – Gary Moyers of the Danville Advocate-Messenger, who covered Phillips for the Bowling Green Daily News during the coach’s high school playing days • “Joker Phillips is one of the finest college football coaches I know. He’s a fine person, too. That’s why I believe the football program will be in fine hands once current coach Rich Brooks decides to leave the program on his own terms.” – Keith Taylor, KentuckySportsReport.com

DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR THE FO0TBALL STAFF

RICK MINTER ne of the most respected defensive minds in football, Rick Minter is in his second year on the Kentucky football staff. In his first season with the Wildcats, Minter placed added emphasis on turnovers and UK increased takeaways from 16 (2010) to 25 while reducing points allowed by nearly four points per game. Linebacker Danny Trevathan led the Southeastern Conference in tackles and earned All-America honors. Trevathan and Guy were All-Southeastern Conference picks and National Football League draft choices. Minter came to UK from Indiana State, where he spent one season as the linebackers coach. The Sycamores, who had a 2-54 record the five previous years before his arrival, improved to a 6-5 mark in 2010, as the ISU defensive unit ranked second in the conference in total takeaways. Minter spent the 2008-09 seasons as the defensive coordinator at Marshall. The Thundering Herd defense doubled its turnover rate in Minter’s first season. He was the interim head coach for his last game at Marshall, guiding the team to a 21-17 win over Ohio in the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl. Minter spent 2005-06 as the defensive coordinator for Notre Dame, a position he also held during the 1992-93 seasons. During his four years as coordinator at Notre Dame, Minter helped lead the Irish to a 40-8-1 record with four bowl games, including two Cotton Bowl berths in the ‘92-93 seasons and appearances in the Fiesta and Sugar Bowls during his latter term.

O

Minter made major improvements in the South Carolina defense in 2004 under legendary head coach Lou Holtz. The Gamecocks ranked 20th nationally in total defense and 15th nationally in pass defense. Freshman free safety Ko Simpson earned second-team All-America honors and ranked third nationally in interceptions. As head coach at Cincinnati from 19942003, Minter won more games than any coach in UC history. He led the Bearcats to four postseason bowl games and was co-champion of Conference USA in 2002. His 1997 team finished 8-4 after a Humanitarian Bowl victory over Utah State, marking the first bowl appearance for Cincinnati in 47 seasons. Minter’s Bearcats went to three straight bowls in 200002. He was named C-USA Coach of the Year in 2001 by CollegeFootballNews.com. It was at Cincinnati that Minter and Phillips became well-acquainted. In 1997, Phillips coached wide receivers and in 1998 he coached defensive backs for Minter. Minter had several notable coaches on his Bearcat staff, including Phillips; current New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan, who served as Cincinnati defensive coordinator; current Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh, who was UC’s special-teams coach; current Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin, who was a defensive backs coach at UC; and Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher, who was an offensive coordinator at UC. During his first stint at Notre Dame, working under Holtz, the 1993 Irish defense helped the team to an 11-1 season and runner-up finish in the national championship race. Three of Minter’s defenders earned first-team All-America honors. The ‘92 Irish posted a 10-1-1 mark, won the Cotton Bowl and were ranked fourth in the final

ends coach. Nord’s challenge on special teams for the upcoming season will be to replace all of the starting kick returners, along with the snapper, holder and All-SEC punter Ryan Tydlacka. Nord has significant experience returning at tight end with juniors Tyler Robinson, Ronnie Shields and Jordan Aumiller. Last season, the tight ends combined to catch 30 passes,

including two touchdowns. Aumiller was a Freshman All-American during his first season on the field. Nord’s career path has returned to Lexington following stops at East Carolina, Georgia Tech, Louisville and Illinois. Nord had joined Illinois in the spring of 2010 as tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator after spending the previous 15 seasons at U of L. Nord was at Louisville from 1995-2009, serving at various times as assistant head coach, recruiting coordinator, tight ends coach and running backs coach. He helped the Cardinals advance to nine bowl games, including a championship of the 2007 Orange Bowl, and win three Conference USA championships and one Big East title. Nord’s tight ends at Louisville had remarkable accomplishments. Ibn Green earned AllAmerica honors in 1998 and ‘99 while setting the NCAA Division I career record for most pass receptions by a tight end (217). Ronnie Ghent became the first player in C-USA history to earn first-team all-conference honors for four-straight seasons. Ghent and three other Cardinal tight ends, Richard Owens, Gary Barnidge and Breno Giacomini, went on to play in the National Football League. With Nord serving as running backs coach in 2004, the Cardinals set school records with 3,005 rushing yards and 47 rushing touchdowns. Eric Shelton tied the school record that year with 20 rushing TDs and went on to play for the Carolina Panthers. In 2005, Michael Bush led the nation in scoring, was a first-team All-Big East performer and now plays for the NFL’s Chicago Bears. Two more of Nord’s backs also played in the NFL, Kolby Smith with Kansas City and

Brock Bolen of Jacksonville. In 1997, Nord was coaching the running backs when Frank Moreau set an NCAA record by scoring four touchdowns in one quarter vs. East Carolina. Moreau went on to play in the NFL as well. Prior to Louisville, Nord spent three years (1992-94) as the running backs coach at Georgia Tech. He guided Dorsey Levens and William Bell, each of whom earned AllAtlantic Coast Conference honors and played professionally. Levens enjoyed an 11-year NFL career and earned All-Pro honors. Nord also coached the running backs at East Carolina in 1990-91, highlighted by a victory in the Peach Bowl following the ‘91 campaign. A native of Louisville, Nord played center, tight end and long snapper for the Wildcats from 1974-78 under Fran Curci. He was a three-year letterman and a member of the ‘76 Southeastern Conference championship team and the ‘77 squad that posted a 10-1 record. He entered the coaching ranks as a graduate assistant at UK in 1979-80. He was a parttime assistant in 1981, the same season that Joker Phillips arrived as a player at UK. Nord was promoted to full-time assistant in 1982 when Jerry Claiborne took over as head coach. Nord coached the running backs all eight years that Claiborne led the Cats, including a pair of appearances in the Hall of Fame Bowl. By the time Nord departed following the 1989 season, he had coached four of the top seven rushers in school history, Mark Higgs, George Adams, Marc Logan and Ivy Joe Hunter. All four went on to play in the NFL. Nord and his wife, Donna, have two daughters, Amy and Angie, and five grandchildren, Luke, Nolan, Gregory, Elizabeth and Collin.

RUNNING BACKS COACH

STEVE PARDUE teve Pardue will have a much more expeienced group of running backs as he heads into his second season on the Kentucky staff. The top four tailbacks from last season -senior CoShik Williams, juniors Raymond Sanders and Jonathan George, and sophomore Josh Clemons -- return for the coming campaign, along with fullbacks D.J. Warren and Cody Jones. Pardue joined the Kentucky staff in December 2010 after an illustrious stint at LaGrange (Ga.) High School Pardue went to LaGrange as an assistant coach in 1991 and took over as head coach in 1994. In 17 seasons as head coach, Pardue collected 161 wins, including three Class AAA state championships.

OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR, QUARTERBACKS COACH

andy Sanders’ most recent appearance on the sideline at the close of the 2011 season will certainly be among his most memorable. As offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, Sanders was without two injured QBs as the Wildcats headed into the season finale vs. Tennessee. In a week’s time, Sanders turned senior wide receiver Matt Roark into a quarterback and guided him through a victory over the Volunteers. That game is an indication of the impact Sanders has had during his term on the UK staff. Upon his arrival in 2006, Sanders helped Andre’ Woodson develop from an inconsistent performer into one of the top quarterbacks in the nation. Seemingly overnight, Woodson blossomed as a player and a field general, leading the Wildcats to some of the most memorable triumphs in school history, including a pair of Music City Bowl championships. Along the way, Woodson led the Southeastern Conference in passing yardage, total offense and touchdown passes, including an SEC record

R

of 40 TD tosses in 2007. He earned All-SEC honors both seasons and was drafted by the NFL’s New York Giants. Sanders went back to square one in 2008. He did a masterful job of melding the inexperienced talents of then-sophomore Mike Hartline and freshman Randall Cobb into a capable tandem. The QB duo led the Wildcats to a thirdconsecutive postseason victory in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl. Sanders turned in another deft coaching performance in 2009. Hartline was the starting quarterback until going down with an injury in the fifth game. For the remainder of the season, Sanders juggled Cobb, seldom-used junior Will Fidler and true freshman Morgan Newton at QB. And, once again, the offense produced enough points to advance to a bowl game, along with ground-breaking victories at Auburn and Georgia. Hartline stayed healthy in 2010, enjoying a terrific season and finishing his career among the top five in school history in every passing category.

Sanders has been offensive coordinator since 2009 and took on primary playcalling duties in 2010. In his first year in that role, UK averaged 6.1 yards per play, second best in school history, and 406 total points ranks third in UK history. Prior to Kentucky, Sanders spent 22 seasons (1984-2005) as a player and coach at the University of Tennessee, including the last seven as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. He was named offensive coordinator after the 1998 regular season when David Cutcliffe became head coach at Ole Miss. Sanders’ first game as offensive coordinator was the 1999 Fiesta Bowl when the Volunteers defeated Florida State for the national championship. A native of Morristown, Tenn., Sanders was a quarterback on the Tennessee football team from 1984-88. He earned four varsity letters and was a four-year member of the SEC Academic Honor Roll. He remained with the team as a volunteer assistant coach, helping coach the quarterbacks, in 1989-90 under Coach Johnny Majors. Sanders was promoted to full-time assistant coach in 1991, working with the wide receivers in 1991-92. New head coach Phillip Fulmer named him running backs coach and recruiting coordinator in 1993. Sanders stayed in those roles through ‘98, recruiting the players that took Tennessee to the national title, before moving to offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach following Cutcliffe’s departure. While Sanders was on the Tennessee coaching staff, the Vols had a record of 162-46-2 (.776) and won four SEC championships and six Eastern Division crowns in addition to their national title. The Vols played in 16 bowl games, including four Citrus Bowls, three Fiesta Bowls, three Cotton Bowls, two Peach Bowls, and once each in the Sugar, Orange, Hall of Fame and Gator bowls. Sanders and his wife, Cathy, have two daughters, Kelly and Kari.

LINEBACKERS COACH, RECRUITING COORDINATOR THE FO0TBALL STAFF

CHUCK SMITH huck Smith, entering his eighth year as linebackers coach at his alma mater, has helped his linebackers to an impressive set of accomplishments. Smith has produced an All-Southeastern Conference linebacker every season since 2006 and had the league’s leading tackler three of the last five seasons. Wesley Woodyard began the honors parade by being named first-team All-SEC in 2006 and 2007, pacing the league in tackles as a senior. Braxton Kelley, Micah Johnson and Johnny Williams continued the productivity in ‘08. Johnson was chosen first-team Coaches’ AllSEC and Kelley garnered second-team allleague laurels. Johnson and Sam Maxwell were secondteam all-league picks in ‘09. Maxwell intercepted six passes, most ever in one season by a UK linebacker. In 2010, Danny Trevathan became the first first-team All-America linebacker in Kentucky history. He was second-team All-America last year. In both seasons, he led the SEC in tackles and was a first-team all-league choice. Smith’s unit helped Kentucky advance to five-straight bowl games, including three wins. Woodyard, Kelley, Williams, Johnson and Maxwell all went on to sign contracts in the National Football League. Smith added the duties of recruiting coordinator in February, 2009. Smith’s organizational abilities, football smarts and likeable personality make him a natural for the responsibility. He also serves as director of the UK summer camps. Success is familiar territory for Smith, who is one of the most accomplished coaches in the history of Kentucky high school football. He came to UK from Boyle County High School in Danville, where he compiled a 142-33

C

record in 13 seasons. He built Boyle County into a juggernaut in the Class AA and Class AAA ranks, winning five consecutive state championships — a state record — from 1999-2003. Smith’s teams won the Class AA titles in 1999 and 2000 with perfect 15-0 records. Reclassification changed Boyle County to Class AAA in 2001, but that was no obstacle for the Rebels, as they won the crown with another 15-0 mark. The winning streak ended at 47 games (second-longest in Kentucky history) during the 2002 regular season, but Boyle County went on to win the state championship again. The 2003 team returned to perfection with a 15-0 slate and state title. Smith’s 2004 squad went 12-3, with a loss in the state finals ending the state-record streaks of five consecutive championships and 29 straight playoff victories. Smith, whose teams were known for their work ethic and solid fundamental play, has been recognized frequently for his accomplishments. He was named the Kentucky Coach of the Year by the National Federation of State High School Associations in 2003. He was chosen as the Kentucky Coach of the Year, covering all classifications, four times by the Louisville Courier-Journal (1999, 2000, 2001 and 2004) and by The Associated Press in 1999. He has won numerous other Coach of the Year honors for Class AA, Class AAA, and on the district and area levels. Two of Smith’s Boyle County players, tight end Jacob Tamme and kicker Taylor Begley, went on to great careers at UK. Tamme earned first-team All-SEC honors while Begley became one of the leading scorers in school history. Both players earned Academic All-America honors. Born in Louisville, Ky., Smith was an allstate linebacker at Jeffersontown High School. He was a UK letterman from 1978-80 as a linebacker under Coach Fran Curci. Smith was second on the team in tackles as a senior with 133 stops and was third on the team in tackles his junior year with 95.

Smith’s coaching career began as an assistant coach at Mercer County from 1983-86. His first head coaching position was in 1987 at Allen County, where he took over a losing program and posted a winning season in his only year at the school. He took over another struggling team at Campbellsville (1988-91) and orchestrated a turnaround, eventually guiding the team to a state playoff berth in his final season at the school. He left Campbellsville in 1992 to begin his record-setting stint at Boyle County.

RUNNING GAME COORDINATOR, OFFENSIVE LINE COACH

exington native Mike Summers, entering his third season in his current term at Kentucky, serves as running game coordinator and offensive line coach. Summers’ results were quickly evident upon his arrival in 2010. Despite having only one returning starter in the offensive line, the Wildcat power plant blocked for an offense that averaged 6.1 yards per play, the second-best mark in school history. The 406 total points rank third all-time in UK annals. Summers’ unit was beset with bad luck last season, as all five starters were injured early in the season. He has two starters returning for 2012, two-year All-SEC guard Larry Warford and center Matt Smith.

L

Summers has been involved with dynamic offenses throughout his career. He returned to Lexington from the University of Arkansas, where he was the assistant head coach and OLine coach in 2008-09. Arkansas led the SEC in scoring offense in ‘09 and was champion of the AutoZone Liberty Bowl. One of his protégés, center Jonathan Luigs, was an All-SEC selection, a finalist for the 2008 Rimington Trophy and played for the Cincinnati Bengals. Guard Mitch Petrus was a first-team All-SEC honoree in ‘09 and is currently a member of the New York Giants. Summers got NFL experience with the Atlanta Falcons in 2007 and was the offensive line coach at the University of Louisville from 2003-06. In his last year at Louisville, three of his linemen (Renardo Foster, Kurt Quarterman and George Bussey) earned first-team All-Big East Conference honors and center Eric Wood was a second-team pick. Summers’ line fronted a unit that ranked second in the nation in total offense (475.3 yards per game), seventh in passing (290 per game) and 12th in rushing (185.3). Two more of Summers’ linemen, Jason Spitz and Travis Leffew, earned identical honors with first-team All-Big East in 2005, first-team AllConference USA in 2004 and second-team AllConference USA in 2003. Foster, Spitz and Wood have played in the NFL while Quarterman, Bussey and Leffew either made active rosters or in-season developmental squads. Wood was a first-round draft pick and now starts for the Buffalo Bills. Summers’ 2004 line helped Louisville set a school record with 3,005 rushing yards and 47 touchdowns while allowing only 20 sacks and leading the nation in total offense and scoring offense. Louisville also set school records with 6,468 total offensive yards and 597 points scored.

In Summers’ first season, the Cardinals reduced sacks allowed from 46 to 13 and set a then-school rushing record while ranking seventh in the nation in total offense and 10th in rushing. During Summers’ time at Louisville, the Cardinals won a Conference USA championship and a Big East title while playing in the Orange Bowl, Gator Bowl, Liberty Bowl and GMAC Bowl. Before Louisville, Summers spent two seasons at Ohio (2001-02), where his offense ranked No. 8 in the nation in rushing offense in 2002 (239.8) and No. 6 in 2001 (240.1). In 2000, Summers was the tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator at Oklahoma State. From 1996-99, he was assistant head coach and offensive coordinator at the University of the South (Sewanee), where his offense ranked as high as fifth in the nation in rushing and second in the conference in total offense during his four seasons. Summers was at Oregon State from 1991-95, where he was assistant head coach and offensive coordinator. He also was OSU’s recruiting coordinator in his first season. The Beavers led the Pacific-10 Conference in rushing four straight years and he was named the league’s top “Offensive Backfield Coach” in 1993. While at Northern Illinois from 1985-90, he coordinated an offense that established 51 school records and seven NCAA records. Summers began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Kentucky (1980-81) and Texas A&M (1982-84). The Lexington native is a graduate of Tates Creek High School and Georgetown College, where he played as a defensive back. Summers is married to the former Kathy Hall, daughter of legendary Kentucky basketball coach Joe B. Hall. They have a daughter, Amy Lawyer and son-in-law, Ben Lawyer.

PASSING GAME COORDINATOR, WIDE RECEIVERS COACH

at Washington, who has 15 years of coaching experience in the Southeastern Conference and also played in the league, will be the wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator for the Wildcat

P

football team. Washington’s most direct tie with UK coaches is through his 11 seasons on the Tennessee staff when he coached with current Wildcat offensive coordinator Randy Sanders. Washington has not coached with Phillips but is acquainted with the Wildcat leader. “I met Pat when we crossed paths during recruiting and was impressed with his professionalism,” Phillips said. “He has outstanding coaching ability and enthusiasm for the Southeastern Conference.” Washington and Sanders were together at Tennessee from 1995-2005. The Volunteers posted a 105-31 record that featured 10 bowl appearances – three Citrus Bowls, two Fiesta, Peach and Cotton Bowls, and one Orange Bowl. Washington also helped Tennessee earn four trips to the SEC Championship game. A win in the 1998 title tilt propelled UT to the Fiesta Bowl, where the Volunteers dispatched Florida State 23-16 to cap an undefeated national championship season. During his term at Tennessee, Washington produced a string of notable receivers such as Joey Kent, Marcus Nash, Peerless Price, Cedrick Wilson, Donte’ Stallworth and Robert Meacham. Nash, Stallworth and Meacham were National Football League first-round draft picks and all six players have enjoyed

NFL careers. Kent, Nash, Wilson and Price still remain, respectively, as the top four pass catchers in school history. “Pat has a lot of energy and expertise and is an outstanding person,” Sanders said. “He is also an excellent evaluator and recruiter, both in handling his recruiting territory and in evaluation of wide receivers.” Washington’s coaching career began at Auburn, his alma mater, as a graduate assistant in 1987-88. His first full-time post came as the receivers coach at Louisiana-Lafayette (1989-91), followed by a two-year stint at Texas Christian. In 1994, he helped guide Baylor to a spot in the Alamo Bowl before going to Tennessee. Following his stint in Knoxville, Washington coached the receivers at Kansas State in 2006 as the Wildcats earned a berth in the Texas Bowl. Two of his wideouts, Jordy Nelson and Yamon Figurs, went on to play in the NFL. Washington returned to his SEC roots in 2007-08 as the receivers coach at Mississippi State, where he was on the staff with current Wildcat assistant David Turner. MSU broke a six-year postseason drought by winning the 2007 AutoZone Liberty Bowl. In 2009-11, Washington coached the running backs at Southern Mississippi. His deep backfield played a key role in Southern Miss’ Conference USA championship in 2011. Four different backs notched 100-yard rushing games during the season. Southern Miss led the league and ranked 20th in the nation in rushing with 205.1 yards per game. Overall, the Golden Eagles ranked 17th in the nation in total offense and 14th in scoring offense. Washington had accepted a position at East Carolina as run game coordinator and outside receivers

coach in January before coming to UK. All totaled, Washington’s 25-year coaching career features 18 bowl appearances. A native of Mobile, Ala., played four years at Auburn (1982-85). The Tigers went to postseason play all four years, including the 1982 Tangerine Bowl, 1984 Sugar Bowl, 1984 Liberty Bowl and 1986 Cotton Bowl. Washington was the starting quarterback as a junior and senior, leading the Tigers to a 17-8 record. In 1985, Washington helped teammate Bo Jackson win the Heisman Trophy. Washington completed his degree in management in 1987. Washington and his wife, Claudette, have two sons, Tyson and Justin.

2011 GAME RECAPS 2011 SEASON IN REVIEW

1 >> KENTUCKY 14, WESTERN KENTUCKY 3 // 9/1/11 ehind the first career rushing touchdown from freshman tailback Josh Clemons and junior La’Rod King’s seventh career receiving touchdown, the University of Kentucky football team claimed its fifth-consecutive season opener, taking down in-state foe Western Kentucky University 14-3 at LP Field in Nashville, Tenn. The win extended Kentucky’s school-record regular-season non-conference winning streak to 20 games and also kept UK undefeated against WKU all-time, moving to 3-0 in series history. Although a home game for WKU, the game was played at LP Field in Nashville, the home of the

B

Tennessee Titans. The Wildcats had an impressive defensive performance under new co-defensive coordinator Rick Minter, limiting WKU to 93 passing yards and only 234 yards of total offense. Kentucky’s defense surrendered only three points to the Hilltoppers, while racking up four interceptions in one game for the first time since 2005. Individually, Kentucky was led defensively by seniors Danny Trevathan, Winston Guy and Ronnie Sneed, who each posted double-figure tackles. Trevathan paced the Wildcats with 13, while Guy had 10 tackles and two interceptions and Sneed earned a career-best 10 stops and also had a pickoff. WKU opened the scoring in the first quarter with a 41-yard field goal by Casey Tinius. In the second quarter, the UK offense was sparked by Guy’s first interception of the game, leading to Clemons’ 14-yard touchdown run to give the Wildcats a lead they would not relinquish. After both defenses dominated play in the third quarter, Kentucky put the game away with a key touchdown with less than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. Facing third-and-long deep in his own territory, UK quarterback Morgan Newton rushed up the middle for 58 yards for a pivotal first down. Two plays later, Newton hit King on a beautiful pass in the corner of the endzone to propel the Wildcats to a 14-3 victory. 7 3

entucky used another second-half shutout from its defense and scored 24 unanswered points, including an 87-yard touchdown run by freshman Josh Clemons, to win its sixth-consecutive home opener in a 27-13 victory over Central Michigan at Commonwealth Stadium. The Wildcats’ defense was solid for the second-consecutive game, limiting Central Michigan to less than 100 yards rushing and earning two interceptions. UK was led by linebacker Danny Trevathan, who notched 13 tackles, including three tackles for loss, plus an interception. Safety/linebacker Winston Guy also had 13 tackles and safety Martavius Neloms posted 10 stops. The Chippewas jumped out to an early lead in the game, taking the opening drive down the field for a David Harman 19-yard field goal. After Kentucky tied the score at 3-3 by a 41-yard field goal from Craig McIntosh, Central Michigan scored 10 straight points to take a 13-3 lead behind a touchdown reception from Jerry Harris and another field goal from Harman. Kentucky tacked on another field goal before halftime, this time a 45-yarder from McIntosh before rattling off 21 unanswered points. After both teams punted twice to start the second half, Kentucky swung the momentum in its direction by stopping CMU on fourth-and-inches in its own territory. On the next play, UK quarterback Morgan Newton rifled a 34-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver La’Rod King, tying the game at 13-13. On Kentucky’s next possession, UK true freshman running back Josh Clemons ran into a pile in the middle of the field, then broke away to his right and raced to the end zone for an 87-yard touchdown. It is the longest run in school history by a Wildcat freshman and the fourth-longest run in school history. The dash put the Wildcats ahead for good. UK put the game away on its next drive, marching 85 yards down the field before Newton rushed for a one-yard touchdown to go up 27-13.

4 >> #15 FLORIDA 48, KENTUCKY 10 // 9/24/11

entucky put together a late rally but came up short in a comeback effort against in-state rival Louisville, falling 24-17 at Commonwealth Stadium. The win for Louisville marked the first time since 2007 that Kentucky did not win the battle for the Governor’s Cup. The game started with the Wildcats marching down the field to the Louisville two-yard line before the Cardinals’ defense stiffened and held the Wildcats to a 20-yard field goal by junior Craig McIntosh. Late in the quarter, Louisville gained the lead it would not relinquish when starting quarterback Will Stein connected on a 38-yard touchdown pass to Andrell Smith to give the Cardinals a 7-3 lead. U of L tacked on seven more points with just over a minute to go in the first half when Teddy Bridgewater, who replaced the injured Stein at quarterback, completed a 25-yard touchdown pass to DeVante Parker. Kentucky and quarterback Morgan Newton responded before the half ended, taking the ball 80 yards down the field and cutting the U of L lead to 14-10 when King caught a 15-yard touchdown pass from Newton with 10 seconds remaining in the half. Louisville received the opening kickoff of the second half and put three points on the board to take its lead back to seven when Chris Philpott connected from 20 yards out. The Cardinals took a 24-10 lead with just over 11 minutes remaining in the game when Bridgewater hit Josh Bellamy for a 25-yard touchdown pass. UK began its comeback effort on the next drive, getting a two-yard touchdown pass from Newton to wide receiver E.J. Fields to cut the lead in half. After U of L went three-and-out on its next possession, Kentucky started a would-be game tying drive before losing the ball on downs at the Louisville 18-yard line.

he No. 15 Florida Gators used a capable rushing attack and opportunistic defense in defeating Kentucky 48-10 at Commonwealth Stadium. The Gators racked up 520 yards of total offense in the game, including 405 yards on the ground en route to the victory. Jeff Demps paced the Gator attack with 10 rushes for 157 yards and two touchdowns, while Chris Rainey added 105 yards and Trey Burton and Mike Gillislee each had rushing touchdowns. The Gator defense generated four turnovers, all of which eventually produced points. The Wildcats managed to frustrate the Gators early on in the game as the Gators went three-and-out on the first drive for just the fourth time all season, and UK forced a Florida punt in the second drive. But a fumble by the Wildcats provided the burst of energy Florida needed as the Gators took over at the Kentucky 45, and John Brantley hit Gerald Christian on a 45-yard touchdown pass across the middle on the next play to give the Gators a 7-0 lead at 8:10 in the first quarter. Florida got two more scores in the first quarter when Demps busted a 20-yard touchdown run to make it 14-0 and then Burton punched in a score from the oneyard line. Kentucky responded with a 69-yard drive, capped by a 24-yard field goal from Craig McIntosh to end the opening period behind 21-3. In the second quarter, Florida’s offense received help from its defense when Jaye Howard grabbed a fumble and returned it for a score. Late in the quarter, Kentucky linebacker Danny Trevathan forced and recovered a fumble in Florida territory. Two plays later, Morgan Newton hit La’Rod King for a 19-yard touchdown reception – his fourth consecutive game with a touchdown catch – to make the score 31-10 at halftime. Kentucky moved the ball well in the second half, going into Florida territory on four possessions, but were unable to capitalize with points.

he No. 1-ranked Louisiana State University Tigers used their swift, physical defense to keep their unblemished record intact by taking down the University of Kentucky 35-7 in a rare morning kickoff at Tiger Stadium in front of 92,660. The Tigers’ defense limited UK to 155 yards of total offense, including 89 rushing yards and 66 passing yards. The Kentucky defense also performed well, keeping LSU under 200 yards rushing and receiving in the game, including limiting LSU to only 14 points in the first half. LSU started the scoring in the opening quarter, putting together a 12-play, 68-yard drive that ended in a one-yard touchdown rush by Jordan Jefferson. The Tigers put seven more points on the board with 11 minutes to go in the half when quarterback Jarrett Lee connected with Odell Beckham for a 51-yard touchdown reception. In the third quarter, LSU put together a 10-play, 68-yard drive that ended with an Alfred Blue one-yard touchdown rush, giving the top-ranked Tigers a 21-0 lead. On Kentucky’s next offensive set, Tyrann Mathieu forced a fumble and then picked up the loose ball and took it 23 yards for a touchdown to give LSU a 28-0 lead. Kentucky got on the board with just over four minutes to go in the fourth quarter when Morgan Newton connected with Matt Roark for a four-yard touchdown reception, capping off a 12-play, 70-yard drive. Kentucky defense got double-figure tackle games from linebacker Danny Trevathan (13 tackles), safety/linebacker Winston Guy (12, plus two tackles for loss), a career-high 11 from Ronnie Sneed and safety Martavius Neloms (10).

outh Carolina used an explosive offensive attack and a suffocating defense to spoil the University of Kentucky football team’s chances of a second-consecutive upset over the ranked Gamecocks by taking down the Wildcats 54-3 at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, S.C. Kentucky got on the board first after sophomore Avery Williamson caused USC return man Bruce Ellington to fumble the opening kickoff of the game, which the Wildcats recovered deep in South Carolina territory. Six plays later, Kentucky’s Craig McIntosh drilled a 28-yard field goal to give Kentucky the 3-0 lead. The Gamecocks responded in a big way behind an impressive performance by quarterback Conner Shaw. Shaw completed 26-of-39 passes for 311 yards and four touchdowns, while four Gamecocks had touchdown receptions and two others had rushing TDs. South Carolina led 20-3 going into the half after Shaw and star wide receiver Alshon Jeffery connected on 20- and 24-yard touchdown receptions, while Shaw and Justice Cunningham hooked up on an 11-yard pass. Kentucky’s Matt Roark took one USC point off the board when he blocked an extra point. It was the seventh blocked kick of Roark’s career, tying the school record. The second half was much of the same, with USC scoring four touchdowns and two field goals en route to the victory. Shaw threw for his fourth touchdown on the afternoon on South Carolina's first drive of the third quarter, finding Nick Jones for a 25-yard scoring strike to give the Gamecocks a 27-3 lead at the 8:46 mark. After Jay Wooten made field goal attempts of 48 and 42 yards to push the Gamecocks' lead to 33-3, Ellington put an exclamation point on the win with a 61-yard touchdown run with 10:34 left in the fourth quarter. The Gamecocks added two more scores late in the contest. Morgan Newton had 54 yards rushing on 14 carries to lead the Wildcats. Winston Guy tallied 14 tackles in a solid defensive effort, while Danny Trevathan contributed 13 stops for Kentucky.

fter a much needed bye week, Kentucky returned to its winning ways with an impressive performance on both sides of the ball, taking down FCS powerhouse Jacksonville State 38-14 in its final non-conference game of the season at Commonwealth Stadium. UK, which scored a season-high 38 points in the game, performed very well offensively against the Gamecocks, totaling a season-best 445 yards of total offense. The Wildcats gained 340 on the ground, which was its most since earning 341 against Vanderbilt in November of 2010. Junior tailback CoShik Williams led the way with a career-best 148 rushing yards, while junior wide receiver La’Rod King eclipsed 1,000 receiving yards in his career with five catches for 84 yards and two touchdowns. Starting quarterback Morgan Newton capped off the good offensive game with a career-high 75 rushing yards, including a TD, and going 10-of-16 passing for 105 yards and two touchdowns. However, it was the Kentucky defense started the scoring when safety Martavius Neloms sacked the JSU quarterback, causing a fumble which he scooped and returned 40 yards for a touchdown. It was Kentucky’s first fumble return for a touchdown since Ventrell Jenkins’ famed game-winning stiff-arm 56-yard return in the 2009 AutoZone Liberty Bowl. UK never looked back after gaining the lead, scoring on its next three possessions to end the first half. Newton and King connected for the first of two touchdowns on the Wildcats’ next drive with a 29-yard touchdown reception, increasing UK’s lead to 14-0. After a one-yard Newton touchdown rush, Jacksonville State answered with its lone offensive touchdown of the game when quarterback Coty Blanchard connected with Alan Bonner from 22 yards. With 2:28 to go in the half. Kentucky marched down the field and came away with a 27-yard field goal from Craig McIntosh to take a 24-7 lead into halftime. Both teams were held scoreless in the third quarter, before a Danny Trevathan interception set up a six-yard TD pass from Newton to King. On the ensuing kickoff, Gamecocks’ return man Gabriel Chambers returned the kick for a touchdown to keep JSU within striking distance of the Wildcats. After a Luke McDermott interception, running back Jonathan George sealed the win for UK when he rushed the ball in from nine yards out with 6:40 left to play.

fter a momentum-building win the week before against Jacksonville State, Kentucky could not continue its winning habits, falling to Southeastern Conference foe Mississippi State 28-16 at Commonwealth Stadium. Mississippi State quarterbacks Tyler Russell and Chris Relf rotated during the game and combined for 264 passing yards and each threw for a touchdown. UK also used multiple quarterbacks after starter Morgan Newton suffered a right ankle sprain in the first quarter and did not return. Freshman Maxwell Smith replaced him and finished 26-of33 for 174 yards. After UK forced a MSU fumble on its first drive of the game, leading to a Craig McIntosh field goal and a 3-0 UK lead, Mississippi State drove 80 yards down the field in eight plays and 2:13 to take a lead they would not relinquish. The Bulldogs scored again on their next possession as Relf ran the ball in from three-yards out to put MSU up 14-3. Kentucky again recovered an MSU fumble deep in its own territory and get another field goal from McIntosh, this one from 22 yards out. MSU with a fourplay, 80-yard drive to take a 21-6 lead into the half. Kentucky forced Mississippi State to go three-and-out to start the second half and tacked on three points on the ensuing possession when McIntosh nailed a 35yard field goal with 8:13 to go in the third quarter. MSU answered the UK score with another 80-yard touchdown drive, capped by a 13-yard strike from Russell to Malcolm Johnson, to give MSU its biggest lead at 28-9. Behind solid play by Smith, UK put together some impressive drives late in the game, including a 11-play, 70-yard touchdown drive early in the fourth quarter behind a four-yard touchdown run by Jonathan George to cut the lead to 28-16. On UK’s next possession, Smith led the Wildcats on another drive and he converted on third downs in the air three times on the drive. But his fourth-and-7 pass from the Mississippi State 8-yard line with just under five minutes was incomplete, ending UK’s comeback effort. Smith’s primary target during the game was wide receiver Matt Roark, who posted career highs with 13 catches for 116 yards, tying for the second-most receptions in a game in school history. Linebacker Danny Trevathan paced the defense with a career-high-tying 17 tackles, along with an interception and a forced fumble that was recovered by the Wildcats.

he University of Kentucky football team could not play the role of spoiler in the Southeastern Conference East divisional title race as 13th-ranked University of Georgia protected its home turf with a 19-10 victory over Kentucky, sealing the SEC East crown and a spot in the SEC Championship game. Kentucky had a great effort defensively in the game, limiting Georgia to 317 yards of total offense, its secondlowest offensive output of the season. Senior linebacker Danny Trevathan led UK with a career-tying 17 tackles while also recording three tackles for loss, two fumbles forced and a sack. In all, the UK defense forced four turnovers, including three fumbles and an interception. Georgia’s defense – ranked fourth in the nation entering the game – was equal to the task, limiting Kentucky to just 165 yards. The UGA defense also forced four turnovers in the game, getting two fumbles and two interceptions. The game started with Kentucky taking the opening drive 65 yards down the field before junior kicker Craig McIntosh nailed a 32-yard field goal to give Kentucky a 3-0 lead. Georgia responded with a pair of field goals to take a 6-3 lead. Kentucky regained the advantage when Trevathan caused Ken Malcome to fumble, giving the Wildcats great field position at the UGA 23 yard line. Six plays later, UK scored its only touchdown of the game when Maxwell Smith hit tight end Tyler Robinson for a two-yard touchdown, giving the Wildcats a 10-6 lead. The Bulldogs would answer with six unanswered points to end the half. After a Brandon Boykin 22-yard punt return put UGA deep into UK territory, the Wildcats defense bent but didn’t break, forcing UGA to take another field goal and cut the UK lead to 10-9. However, Kentucky fumbled the ensuing kickoff which led to another UGA field goal, this one a 39-yarder from Walsh, to take a 12-10 lead into the locker room at halftime. Neither team scored in the third quarter. Georgia sealed the victory early in the fourth quarter on a seven-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Murray to Marlon Brown.

ehind the impressive and steady play of senior wide receiver Matt Roark, who started at quarterback, the University of Kentucky football team snapped Tennessee’s 26-game winning streak in the series, defeating the Volunteers 10-7 at Commonwealth Stadium. The win was the first for the Wildcats over Tennessee since 1984, when Kentucky head coach Joker Phillips was a senior wide receiver for UK. With starting quarterback Morgan Newton and Maxwell Smith sidelined because injury, Roark led the Wildcats’ offense to 202 yards rushing, including his individual game-high 124 rushing yards. Roark also completed 4-of-6 passes for 15 yards. Perhaps most impressive was that he directed the offense the entire game without a turnover while controlling the ball for 35:57. Junior tailback CoShik Williams scored the only Wildcats touchdown, finishing the game with 21 carries for 68 yards. Kentucky’s defense limited UT to seven points while forcing three turnovers. The Wildcats were led individually by seniors Winston Guy and Danny Trevathan, who ended the game with 14 tackles and eight tackles, respectively. The UK defense recorded a season-high five pass breakups in the game. Punter Ryan Tydlacka was magnificent, averaging 43.6 yards per punt with no return yardage. After Tennessee went three-and-out to start the game, Roark led Kentucky 62 yards down the field in a 15-play drive that took almost eight minutes off the clock and ended in 24-yard field goal by Craig McIntosh. Tennessee moved the ball into Wildcat territory twice in the second quarter but the Volunteers missed a 46-yard field goal and the UK defense stopped another scoring threat on the next drive when Tennessee failed to convert a fourth-and-four at the Kentucky 31-yard line. After a relatively quiet start to the third quarter offensively, both teams had great scoring chances late in the third with Tennessee’s ending in a costly turnover and Kentucky’s in the game-winning score. UT quarterback Tyler Bray completed a 44-yard pass to Rajion Neal at the UK 8-yard line, but two plays later a shotgun snap went out of the reach of Neal, who was lined up at quarterback, and was recovered by Collins Ukwu to spoil the UT scoring threat. Kentucky responded to the UT turnover by putting together an eight-play, 77-yard drive that ended early in the fourth quarter with Williams’ six-yard touchdown run to give the Wildcats a 10-0 lead. Less than two minutes later, however, Bray connected with Neal on a 53-yard touchdown strike to cut the UK lead to 10-7. After the teams exchanged punts twice, Tennessee had the ball at its own 28yard line with 2:35 to go in the game. After completing a 13-yard pass on third and long to start the drive, the Vols faced fourth and 17, needing to convert to stay alive in the game. But Bray’s pass was picked off by senior safety Taiedo Smith, sealing the UK victory.

Kentucky improved in 1984, finishing with a 9-3 record which included a thrilling 20-19 win over Wisconsin in the ’84 Hall of Fame Bowl. Claiborne won 41 games during his eight seasons with the Wildcats. Claiborne and Bryant are the only two UK coaches to win at least five games in seven consecutive seasons.

Mumme’s dynamic “Air Raid” offense put UK among the national leaders in passing yardage and total offense and the ’97 team broke or tied 51 school records and 15 Southeastern Conference records.

son. He compiled an impressive 60-23-5 record in eight years. Bryant’s 60 victories are still a UK football record for head coaches. Blanton Collier had the task of following in Bryant’s footsteps. He stayed eight years at UK as well, etching a 41-36-3 record from 1954 to 1961. Kentuckians best remember Collier for his 5-2-1 record against arch-rival Tennessee. He coached All-Americans Lou Michaels (1957-58) and Howard Schnellenberger (1955) at UK. Charlie Bradshaw became the head mentor at UK in time for the 1962 season. Bradshaw, a UK graduate who lettered four years (1946-49), managed only a 25-41-4 record in seven seasons. One highlight of his term at UK came in 1964, a 27-21 upset of No. 1-ranked Ole Miss in Jackson, Miss. John Ray entered the scene in 1969 as head coach. In four years, Ray was 10-33. His biggest win came during his first year as Kentucky again victimized Ole Miss and Archie Manning. The Cats upset the Rebels, 10-9, in Lexington. The Fran Curci era began in 1973, the same year Kentucky moved from ancient Stoll Field/McLean Stadium to spacious Common-wealth Stadium. Though Curci had only one winning campaign during his first three years, things got interesting beginning with the 1976 season. UK ended the ’76 year with an 8-3 record and its second SEC championship. Kentucky helped secure its second league title on the strength of a 62-yard touchdown pass from Derrick Ramsey to Greg Woods to beat Tennessee, 7-0, at Knoxville, Tenn. The victory clinched a berth in the Peach Bowl against North Carolina, UK’s first postseason appearance in 25 years. Before a UK contingent estimated at 25,000, the Cats blanked the Tar Heels, 21-0. The following year, Kentucky went on NCAA probation. Despite an early season loss at Baylor, the Wildcats rolled to an impressive 10-1 record doing it the hard way. Kentucky defeated Penn State (24-20) in University Park, Pa., defeated LSU (33-13) in Baton Rouge, La., blanked Georgia (33-0) in Athens, Ga., and beat Florida (14-7) in Gainesville, Fla. In the Curci era, players like Sonny Collins (UK career leader with 3,835 yards rushing), AllAmericans Warren Bryant and Art Still and multitalented Derrick Ramsey, wore the blue and white. In all, Curci worked nine years, the longest term of any UK head coach. Jerry Claiborne answered the call of his alma mater in December of 1981 and was named the school’s 31st head football coach. Claiborne had played at UK from 1946-49 and was an assistant coach under Bryant at UK in 1952-53. After an 0-10-1 mark in Claiborne’s first sea-

Coach Bear Bryant (left inset) guided Kentucky to eight consecutive winning seasons and four bowl games from 1946-53. Other legendary UK football names include Art Still, who earned consensus first-team All-America honors at defensive end in 1977 and All-America quarterback Tim Couch (right inset), who led Kentucky to its first New Year’s Day Bowl appearance in 47 years in the 1999 Outback Bowl.

Honor Roll selections (68) during the Claiborne era, including a then-league record of 17 players named to the 1989 honor roll. Individually, quarterback Bill Ransdell played under Claiborne and left as UK’s alltime leader in passing and total offense. Mark Higgs departed as the school’s second-leading rusher and tackle Oliver Barnett set a UK record with 26 quarterback sacks. After Claiborne’s retirement, Bill Curry took over as head coach in 1990. The highlight of Curry’s term came in 1993 as the Wildcats played in the Peach Bowl. In 1994, the Wildcats faced intrastate rival Louisville for the first time in 70 years and defeated the Cardinals 20-14 in front of a then-record 59,162 fans in Commonwealth Stadium. The 1995 season was highlighted by tailback Moe Williams, who rushed for 1,600 yards,

Tim Couch was a first-team All-American, SEC Player of the Year, and a finalist for the Heisman Trophy while rewriting NCAA, SEC, and UK record books. Wide receiver Craig Yeast became the leading pass catcher in SEC history. The Wildcats capped their season by playing Penn State in the Outback Bowl, the school’s first New Year’s Day bowl game in 47 years. Following the Outback Bowl season, Commonwealth Stadium was expanded. UK enclosed both end zones and added personal suites in time for the 1999 season, boosting seating capacity to 67,606. The Wildcats celebrated the stadium expansion with another bowl season.

Derek Abney returned six kicks for touchdowns, more than any player in one season in NCAA history, and was named first-team All-America along with punter Glenn Pakulak. Pakulak emerged as the best punter in school history and won the Mosi Tatupu Award as National Special Teams Player of the Year. Inheriting a roster weakened by probation was the major obstacle for Rich Brooks when he took over as head coach in 2003. Brooks’ rebuilding efforts began bearing fruit in 2006. The Wildcats had their best season in 22 years by winning eight games, including a 28-20 upset of highly favored Clemson in the Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl. Led by quarterback Andre’ Woodson, tailback Rafael Little, wide receiver Keenan Burton, tight end Jacob Tamme and linebacker Wesley Woodyard, the 2007 season contained some of the most exciting moments in school history.

UK also knocked off No. 1-ranked LSU -- the eventual national champion -- with a 43-37 triple-overtime thriller. The campaign was capped with another Music City Bowl win, this time over traditional power Florida State. Kentucky capped the 2008 season with a win over East Carolina in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, the first time in school history that UK won bowl games in three consecutive seasons. The momentum continued with a schoolrecord streak of five-straight bowl games. Coach Rich Brooks retired following the 2009 campaign, handing the reins to former Wildcat player and long-time assistant coach Joker Phillips. Sparked by All-America receiver Randall Cobb, Phillips became the first head coach in UK history to take the Wildcats to a bowl game in his first season. In his second year, Phillips ended the 26-year losing streak vs. Tennessee with a 10-7 win over the Vols.

CFA ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT AWARD

The Kentucky cheerleading squad won an unprecedented 19th national cheerleading championship in 2012 at the competition sponsored by the Universal Cheerleaders Association. The cheerleaders have won the UCA national title in 1985, 1987, 1988, 1992, 1995-2002, 2004-06, 2008-10 and 2012. They have been the runners-up on five occasions. Jomo Thompson is coach of the cheerleaders and T. Lynn Williamson is the cheerleader advisor. A total of 40 students comprise the squad, 16 of whom represent the school at the championship.

The University of Kentucky became the first Southeastern Conference institution to win the College Football Association Academic Achievement Award after claiming the prestigious honor in 1989. The Academic Achievement Award is given to the CFA institution with the highest graduation rate of its football program based on a five-year period. UK had graduated 90 percent (18 of 20) of its incoming freshman signee class of 1983, thus earning the honor in May, 1989. A year earlier (1988), UK finished second with a graduation rate of 90.5 percent. Kentucky earned honorable mention honors in 1988, ’91, ’93 and ’94, for having graduated better than 70 percent of its incoming freshman class.

JERRY CLAIBORNE After lettering three years (1946-49) as a player and serving two seasons (1952-53) as an assistant coach at Kentucky, Jerry Claiborne returned to his alma mater in 1982 as UK’s 31st head football coach. Claiborne stepped down after 28 years as a collegiate head coach in 1989. He led the Wildcats to two bowls and four non-losing seasons. During his era, Kentucky placed more players (68) on the SEC Academic Honor Roll than any league school, including a then-record 17 in 1989. Claiborne also led UK to a national academic title by capturing the 1989 CFA Academic Achievement Award. His eight-year UK record was 41-46-3. Overall, Claiborne finished 21st among Division I coaches with 179 career victories and 179-122-8 in all games. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in Aug. 2000.

BLANTON COLLIER AND THE STAFF Blanton Collier had the challenge of following Paul Bryant as head football coach at the University of Kentucky. But, Collier posted a fine 41-36-3 record in eight seasons at UK. Kentuckians best remember Collier for his record against arch-rival Tennessee which stood at 5 wins, 2 losses, and 1 tie. Standouts such as Howard Schnellenberger, Lou Michaels, Tom Hutchinson, Bobby Cravens, Calvin Bird and Irv Goode played under Collier. One fascinating item in Collier’s tenure was the football coaching staff he assembled in 1959. The 1959 UK staff included Collier, Ed Rutledge, Howard Schnellenberger, Ermal Allen, Don Shula, John North, Bob Cummings and Bill Arnsparger.

FRAN CURCI The Fran Curci era (1973-81) was one of ups and downs at the University of Kentucky. Curci remained at UK for nine seasons, the longest tenure of any UK football coach, and posted a 47-51-2 record. The ups consisted of sharing the 1976 Southeastern Conference title with Georgia, a 21-0 blanking of North Carolina in the ’76 Peach Bowl, and a 1977 squad which boasted a 10-1 record and No. 5 national ranking. The down was probation which forced the ’77 squad to miss a certain bowl invitation.

DIGIURO SCHOLARSHIP The Trent DiGiuro Memorial Scholarship was established in the autumn of 1994 in honor of the Wildcat offensive guard who died in July of that year. The scholarship is awarded each year to a walk-on football player who has completed his eligibility, maintained a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.5, and has exemplified the dedication, determination, hard work and leadership typified by Trent DiGiuro. If there is no suitable walk-on candidate that year, the scholarship will go to a team manager or trainer who meets the above criteria. The scholarship was established by DiGiuro’s family and friends. The 2012 winner of the scholarship is long snapper Jon Thomas.

FORWARD PASS

The goalposts came down after UK's 1997 overtime win against Alabama.

The first forward pass attempted by a University of Kentucky football player was thrown on Oct. 13, 1906, by quarterback Earl Stone as the Wildcats faced Eminence Athletic Club. This was the first year the forward pass was legalized by national rules. Accounts from this early contest do not indicate if the first forward UK pass was completed.

GOALPOSTS

MINUS NINETY-THREE

The Commonwealth Stadium goalposts have been torn down twice since the stadium opened in 1973. They were first toppled on Oct. 4, 1997, following Kentucky's 40-34 overtime win vs. Alabama. It was Kentucky's first victory against the Crimson Tide in 75 years, prompting the UK student body to storm the field. "If I weren't so old, I'd have torn them down myself," said then-UK Athletics Director C. M. Newton. It happened again on Nov. 4, 2006, after the Wildcats’ dramatic 24-20 triumph over Georgia. It was UK’s first win over the Bulldogs in 10 years and the crowd brought down the east goalpost. Citing safety concerns, UK has installed collapsible goalposts, which will prevent repeats of the popular -- but potentially dangerous -celebration ritual.

The University of Kentucky holds the Southeastern Conference record for fewest yards allowed rushing in a single game. Kentucky limited Kansas State to minus-93 yards on the ground as UK defeated Kansas State, 16-3, on Sept. 19, 1970, in Lexington. Kentucky defenders sacked KSU quarterbacks Lynn Dickey (2) and Max Arreguin (5) seven times while intercepting three of their passes. Ironically, KSU outgained UK in total offense 214-107 as Dickey and Arreguin combined for 307 yards in the air.

GOVERNOR’S CUP The Governor’s Cup was created in 1994 as the trophy for the winner of the KentuckyLouisville game. Donated by Kroger at a cost of $23,000, the Governor’s Cup stands 33 inches tall and weighs 110 pounds. The trophy’s base and upright columns are handmilled black marble. The glass components are comprised of Optic grade crystal. All metal parts are 23-karat, gold-plated brass. The cup itself is solid pewter with a 23-karat gold-plated finish. The Governor’s Cup was designed by Kendall Costner and sculpted by James Corcoran of Bruce Fox, Inc. The UKU of L series was renewed in 1994 with the Wildcats winning the game, 20-14.

HOMECOMING GAMES As is the case of most institutions, Homecoming football games are special. Kentucky is no exception. Alumni and old friends converge on the UK campus each fall for Homecoming Day, highlighted by a Kentucky football game. The first Homecoming Day occurred on Nov. 25, 1915, as Kentucky defeated Tennessee, 6-0. Though records are sketchy, Kentucky has hosted a Homecoming game every year since 1946 and owns a 47-19 record in those 66 contests.

THE IMMORTALS Simply known as “The Immortals,” the 1898 University of Kentucky football squad still remains as the only undefeated, untied, and unscored on Wildcats club in school history. The Immortals outscored opponents 180-0 while posting a perfect 7-0-0 record. Roscoe Severs served as team captain under coach W.R.

CAWOOD LEDFORD The legendary “Voice of the Wildcats” was none other than Cawood Ledford. For 39 years, Cawood called Wildcats football and basketball. His voice alone symbolized UK Athletics. Cawood called his last UK football game vs. Tennessee on Nov. 23, 1991, and retired from the microphone following the 1991-92 basketball season.

MASCOTS The Wildcat mascot originated during the 1976-77 academic year at Kentucky. Gary Tanner was the original Wildcat, dancing and entertaining thousands of UK fans at Commonwealth Stadium and Rupp Arena during athletic events. Today, the Wildcat mascot also attends academic functions and generally serves as a friendly ambassador for the University. Scratch, another costumed mascot, was unveiled in August of 1996. During UK games, the Wildcat and Scratch entertain with enthusiastic dances and cheers. “Blue” is UK’s ‘live’ wildcat mascot. “Blue” has a permanent residence in the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Salato Wildlife Center three miles west of Frankfort on US 60 and is on display and free to view by the public. Through the years, UK has had other official live mascots with colorful names. Records indicate that the first wild animal, named “Tom,” was given to the University in 1921. Other live mascots followed, including “TNT,” “Whiskers,” “Hot Tamale” and “Colonel.”

Kentucky is the 1950 national champion, according to Jeff Sagarin, who handles computer rankings for USA Today. Sagarin, who has generated computer ratings since the 1970s, has reconstructed earlier seasons and his computer rates the Wildcats as tops for the 1950 campaign. At the time, the national champs were crowned after the regular season but before the bowl games. UK finished the regular season with a 10-1 record and No. 7 ranking before knocking off No. 1 Oklahoma, 13-7, in the Sugar Bowl. Four teams can lay claim to the 1950 title, according to the official NCAA record book. Six selectors went with Oklahoma (final record 101), six picked Tennessee (11-1), two chose Princeton (9-0), and one – the Sagarin ratings – named Kentucky (11-1).

THE FIRST NIGHT GAME The University of Kentucky was one of the first institutions to play intercollegiate football at night. The first UK home night game was played on Oct. 5, 1929, at Stoll Field as Kentucky defeated Maryville, 40-0. Kentucky did not play more than one home night game per season until 1946.

NIGHT GAMES The University of Kentucky began holding its October home football games during the evening hours in 1949. UK and Keeneland Race Course, located in Lexington, have enjoyed a close relationship through the years and assist in giving UK faithful an opportunity to enjoy two of the Commonwealth’s best-loved events in October — football and horse racing. With the traditional post time at Keeneland for the thoroughbred races at 1:15 p.m., UK began moving its October home games to night during the 1949 season. The only occasion UK has not conducted its October home games in the evening is to accommodate live national or regional television.


Nat Northington of Louisville became the first black player to sign with the University of Kentucky and a Southeastern Conference institution. Northington signed a national letter-of-intent with UK in December of 1965. He later became the first African-American football player to play in an SEC vs. SEC game, appearing in the UK-Ole Miss game in Lexington on Sept. 30, 1967.

OUTLAND TROPHY Two-time All-American Bob Gain is the only player in University of Kentucky football history to be awarded the Outland Trophy, signifying the best interior lineman in collegiate football. Gain was awarded the 1950 Outland Trophy after helping lead UK to its first Southeastern Conference title and a 10-1 regular-season record. Besides being the first UK player to claim the award, Gain was also the first SEC player to be given the award.

THE PRINCE

OF

WALES

The Kentucky Wildcats gave Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales, his first taste of American football on Oct. 22, 1977. That’s right, Prince Charles’ first football game was the UK-Georgia matchup at Athens. Prince Charles was introduced to UK Coach Fran Curci and All-American Art Still at halftime. After looking at the 6-6 Still, Prince Charles said, “You’re a tall one aren’t you?” Still and Co. blanked the Bulldogs on this day, 33-0, on their way to a 10-1 record.

RED DOC, BLACK DOC A pair of cousins named William Rodes played football for the University of Kentucky during the early 1900s. To distinguish one from the other, one was nicknamed “Red Doc” and the other “Black Doc.” William “Red Doc” Rodes lettered three years (1909, 11-12) as a 140pound halfback and defensive end. William “Black Doc” Rodes lettered two years (1915-16) as quarterback. Black Doc was considered by many to be one of the best open-field runners in that era. He also placekicked and personally delivered UK’s 6-0 victory over Tennessee in 1915 with field goals of 45 and 43 yards.

RUSSELL RICE Longtime UK sports information director Russell Rice is the unofficial historian when it comes to Wildcats football. Rice retired from the UK Athletics Department in 1989 after serving 18 years as sports information director. He came to UK in 1967 as assistant SID, then was named sports information director in 1969. Rice authored the book, “The Wildcats,” which details Kentucky football and its history. At his

served as UK’s football home since 1916. The University Board of Trustees voted to name the playing field “Stoll Field” and the actual grandstand structures as “McLean Stadium,” thus the often confusing double names. Stoll Field was named in honor of the late Judge Richard C. Stoll, a prominent alumnus, trustee and benefactor of UK. Stoll Field was dedicated on Oct. 14, 1916. McLean Stadium was dedicated on Nov. 1, 1924, in memory of Price Innes McLean, a regular center on the 1923 UK squad who died as a result of injuries sustained in the KentuckyCincinnati game on Nov. 6, 1923. The final seating capacity of Stoll Field/McLean Stadium was 37,000 during its last year of use, 1972.

THE THIN THIRTY When Blanton Collier stepped down as head football coach at Kentucky following the 1961 season, UK promptly named former Wildcats player Charlie Bradshaw as its 28th coach. Bradshaw inherited a squad of 88 players left from Collier’s 5-5-0 team in ’61. Bradshaw promised his new UK squad hard work and talked of training to an absolute peak of condition. His conditioning tactics took their toll as more than 50 players left the squad, leaving 30 to open the season against Florida State and prompting the name “Thin Thirty.” The Thin Thirty finished 3-5-2 with victories over Detroit (27-8), Vanderbilt (7-0) and arch-rival Tennessee (12-10). The ties were against Florida State (0-0) and Georgia (7-7).

retirement party, Rice was given a lifetime “Press Pass” to Commonwealth Stadium. Since his retirement from UK, Rice has written a weekly historical column for The Cats’ Pause magazine and he continues to be a rich historical resource for the UK media relations office. He was inducted into the UK Athletics Hall of Fame in 2012.

STOLL FIELD/MCLEAN STADIUM Stoll Field/McLean Stadium was the first home for Kentucky football. The stadium was located adjacent to Memorial Coliseum and

Stoll Field/McLean Stadium was home to Kentucky football for 56 years (1916-1972).

department, told a group of students in a chapel service following the game that the Kentucky football team had “fought like wildcats.” The nickname grew in popularity and was adopted by the university.

WINNING STREAK Kentucky ended one of the longest winning streaks in college football history when the Wildcats faced Oklahoma in the 1951 Sugar Bowl. Kentucky was coming off its first Southeastern Conference title and brought in a 10-1 record. Oklahoma entered as national champions and riding a 31-game winning streak. A pair of Wilbur Jamerson scores - a 22-yard pass from Babe Parilli and a one-yard run - was all UK needed in picking up a 13-7 upset of the Sooners. At the time, the 31-game winning streak was the fifth-longest in NCAA history and today it still ranks as the ninth-longest in NCAA history.

THE YEAR (1977-78) Perhaps the most successful year in UK Athletics occurred during the 1977-78 academic year at the University of Kentucky. The 1977 Wildcats football squad, under Fran Curci, raced to a 10-1 record and ended the year ranked No. 5 by The Sporting News. Highlights were victories over North Carolina (10-7), West Virginia (28-13), Penn State (24-20), LSU (33-13), Georgia (33-0), Florida (14-7) and Tennessee (21-17). On the basketball side, UK wrapped up its fifth NCAA title by defeating Duke, 94-88, at St. Louis. The UK basketballers ended the campaign with a 30-2 record under Joe B. Hall.

THE YEAR (1950-51) An argument to the most successful year in UK Athletics is the 1950-51 academic year. UK football, under Paul Bryant, ended the 1950 regular season with a 10-1 record and ranked No. 7 nationally by both A.P. and U.P.I. The Wildcats then proceeded to snap national champion Oklahoma’s 31-game winning streak with a 13-7 victory in the Sugar Bowl. Kentucky has been named national champion for the 1950 season by the Sagarin Ratings. On the basketball front, Adolph Rupp gave UK its third national title by defeating Kansas State, 68-58, at Minneapolis, Minn. The Wildcats ended the year 32-2.

JIM BROWN f it has to do with Kentucky football, Jim Brown has seen it all. When the 93year-old Brown began attending UK football games, Franklin D. Roosevelt was president, bread cost a few cents a loaf, and Bear Bryant was just a cub. With one exception we’ll get to later, Brown was present for every UK home football game from 1938 until his streak ended during the 2009 season -- a total of 412 home games. “I’m all for Kentucky football,” Brown said. “I liked football from an early age, when I was a little kid in Western Kentucky. Football was the big thing in the 1920s and I followed UK in the sports pages.” Brown’s streak began in 1938 when he enrolled as a UK freshman. A standout halfback in high school, he had hoped to play for the Wildcats, but was unable to try out for the team because he had to work his way through school. That didn’t stop him from going to the games. In fact, it took a world war to separate Brown from Kentucky football. “I was in a race with Uncle Sam to graduate before I got inducted into the service,” Brown said. “I graduated in 1942 and got sent to Wright Field in Dayton. You couldn’t get gasoline, and I didn’t have a car anyway, so I caught the train from Dayton to Cincinnati to Lexington to see the games that season. I didn’t miss any games in 1943 because, like a lot of schools, UK didn’t field a team that year.” World War II finally got bigger than Kentucky football in 1944. Brown was a navigator/bombardier on a B-25 in Asia, part of a squadron called the “Burma Bridge Busters,” definitely too far for a weekend excursion to catch the Cats. But he was discharged just in time for the 1945 season, and he didn’t miss a home game for 64 straight seasons. (An interesting side note is that the “Burma Bridge Busters” were the subject of a 2003 documentary by the History Channel. Brown was one of the members of the squadron who was interviewed and featured in the documentary.) A member of what has become known as “The Greatest Generation,” Brown helped build America – literally. He was involved with the construction business, a lumber company, and in real estate. Even his marriage had a tie to Kentucky

I

football. He married Carolyn Rodes, daughter of William “Black Doc” Rodes, a UK football star in 1915-16. The Browns didn’t always live in Lexington. They lived in Carrollton from 1952-63, and in Winchester from 1965-78. All the while, he kept turning out to see his favorite team. “I always worked on Saturday mornings (at the lumber company). I left a lot of people standing in the store, saying ‘I have to go to Lexington,’” Brown recalled with a laugh. “I wasn’t trying to set a record. It just happened.” Brown’s favorite gridiron memories involve the 1949-50-51 teams that played in the Orange, Sugar and Cotton Bowls, along with the mid-1970s teams that won an SEC championship and a Peach Bowl. “People who go back that far feel that our 1950 team probably was our best,” said Brown, referring to the Wildcat squad that is the 1950 national champion, according to the Sagarin computer ratings. “(Quarterback) Babe Parilli was as good at deception as anyone I’ve ever seen. I was in a game in Atlanta against Georgia Tech, and a Tech fan was sitting beside me. He said, ‘It looks like Parilli is shaking hands with everybody in the backfield before he hands the ball off.’ “That bunch in 1977 was probably the second-best team we’ve had,” Brown continued. “They had a lot of terrific athletes, especially (future NFL stars) Art Still and Derrick Ramsey.” As much as he enjoys talking about the past, Brown is just as excited about the present and future. After 52 years of marriage, wife Carolyn passed away in 1999. He married again in 2002, and new wife Mary Anne Goodson Brown also is a UK grad. Brown is happy with the progress made at the University. “We’re going in the right direction with the new AD (Mitch Barnhart) ... The whole university is charting an exciting course.” Brown’s streak finally came to an end when an illness forced him to miss the Alabama game in 2009. However, he continues to go Kentucky games. And, he’s a model of faithfulness in more than football. He has a 46-year streak of perfect attendance at the Lexington Rotary Club. He’s also a pillar of Crestwood Christian Church, where he is an elder emeritus. Asked about his consistency, Brown replied in what must be the understatement of the year. “I’ve always had a tendency to be loyal,” he said.

Bobby Brooks added the PAT to make it 7-0. Kentucky wasted a golden scoring opportunity late in the second quarter when Babe Parilli found Bill Leskovar for a 45yard completion to the SC 3 with time running out. Leskovar and runningmate Don Phelps each were stopped short on their respective rush attempts and the clock ran out before UK could score. The Wildcats led 7-0 at halftime. UK coach Paul “Bear” Bryant said afterward he should have sent in a pass play just before the half. “If it failed,” he said, “the clock was killed then we could have tried a field goal.” A short 9-yard punt by Phelps set up Santa Clara’s first score in the third quarter. After taking over on the SC 46, Bronco quarterback John Pasco hit Larry Williams on a 25-yard pass. Santa Clara eventually scored on a 1-yard sneak by Pasco to tie the game, 7-7.

1951 • SUGAR BOWL // KENTUCKY 13, OKLAHOMA 7 entucky arrived on the national football scene and stunned national champion Oklahoma, 13-7, to capture the 1951 Sugar Bowl before 82,000 in New Orleans. The Wildcats, 11-1, displayed a tough defense and opportunistic offense in snapping Oklahoma’s 31-game winning streak, the longest in the nation at that time. More than 13,000 Kentucky fans made the long trip to New Orleans to watch the Southeastern Conference champions pick up their school record 11th win. Under the direction of coach Paul “Bear” Bryant, Kentucky continually confused the favored Sooners with different defensive looks. The Wildcats used three tackles much of the time, causing OU quarterback Claude Arnold to hasten his playmaking. Inflicting the most damage on the Sooners was Walt Yowarsky, a tackle who had played less than five minutes on the defensive side of the football in 1950. Yowarsky operated at left end, next to Outland Trophy winner Bob Gain, and repeatedly sliced into the Sooner backfield to break up passes and to make Arnold hurry his handoffs and laterals. Yowarsky recovered a fumble on the OU 22 that set up UK’s first touchdown. On the very next play, Babe Parilli hit Wilbur Jamerson in the right corner of the end zone for the touchdown. Gain added the PAT to make it 7-0 in the first quarter. Kentucky marched 81 yards in the second quarter to go up 13-0. Jamerson dove over from the one to cap the drive, but Gain missed wide on the PAT.

1983 • HALL OF FAME BOWL // WEST VIRGINIA 20, KENTUCKY 16

entucky won much of the statistical battle but lost the war in dropping a tough 20-16 decision to the West Virginia Mountaineers in the 1983 Hall of Fame Bowl in Birmingham, Ala. The Wildcats, in a bowl for the first time since 1976, outgained West Virginia 306-288 in total offense and held the edge in first downs 19-18 and passing yards 216-88. But 17 second-half points by West Virginia were too much for the Wildcats to overcome. WVU scratched first as placekicker Paul Woodside connected on a 39-yard field goal late in the first quarter. Kentucky countered with 10 points in the second stanza to take a 10-3 lead at halftime. The Wildcats marched 54 yards in eight plays for their first score. Facing a third-and-three from the Mountaineers’ 26, Kentucky used some razzle-dazzle as Tony Mayes swept right, then threw-back to quarterback Randy Jenkins in the left corner of the endzone for the TD. John Hutcherson added the PAT and UK led 7-3 with 10:59 left in the second period. Jenkins hit two big passes late in the second quarter to help set up a 32-yard field goal by Hutcherson. Jenkins connected with Joe Phillips for a 19-yard pass play and then hit George Adams for a 14-yarder as Hutcherson connected with 38 seconds left in the half. WVU kicker Paul Woodside fooled everyone to begin the second half. Woodside tried an on-side kick to start the half and then recovered it to give the Mountaineers the football at the UK 48. Eight plays later, QB Jeff Hostetler found Rich Hollins for a 16-yard TD strike. Woodside added the PAT and it was 10-10 with 11:10 left in the third quarter. West Virginia scored twice in a span of two minutes early in the fourth quarter to take a commanding 20-10 lead. Hostetler capped off a 10-play, 81-yard drive with a 2-yard scoring toss to Rob Bennett to make it 17-10 with 11:15 left to play. Two plays later, West Virginia took over after an interception of a Jenkins pass at the UK 16. The SCORING S U M M A R Y interception set up a 23-yard field goal by Woodside as the W.

Worley, a freshman, helped Kentucky overcome a nine-point deficit in the second half with his school and bowl record field goal. Wisconsin jumped on top early, scoring twice in the first quarter. Todd Gregoire nailed a 40-yard field goal just under four minutes into the game and Michael Howard hit Thad McFadden with a 3-yard TD pass. Gregoire added the PAT and the Badgers led 10-0 with 5:34 left in the opening period. Gregoire added another field goal, this one from 27 yards, to make it 13-0 with 7:05 left in the second period.

It took Kentucky just five plays to score as Marc Logan went over from nine yards. Worley added the PAT to cut the deficit to 13-7 with 1:29 left in the half. Wisconsin was not through. The Badgers used four running plays, two passes and a costly 15-yard penalty to move the football to the UK 3 with two seconds left in the half. From there, Wisconsin decided on a Gregoire field goal (20yarder) to take a 16-7 edge at halftime. Kentucky narrowed the gap to 16-10 on a 22-yard field goal by Worley with 11:28 left in the third quarter. But Gregoire responded with a 40-yarder two minutes later to move the count back to nine, 19-10. Behind UK quarterback Bill Ransdell, the Wildcats marched 82 yards in 11 plays later in the quarter to get within two, 19-17.

But a Clemson TD in the closing seconds sent UK home with a 14-13 loss. Kentucky took the opening kickoff and marched down the field to the Clemson 2-yard line, where what appeared to be a QB Pookie Jones-to-WB Alfonzo Browning TD was instead a turnover when Browning fumbled the ball while attempting to extend it over the goal line. Clemson took over on its own one and proceeded to march 99 yards for the game’s first score, a 2-yard TD plunge by TB Emory Smith. The PAT gave the Tigers a 7-0 lead. Clemson ran the ball 15 times and attempted only three passes in the drive. Kentucky was stopped again at the 1-yard line before the Wildcats finally scored on Nicky Nickels’ 34-yard FG in the second period, making the score Clemson 7, Kentucky 3.

Although the game was played in Tampa, the Wildcats certainly felt at home. Heavy ticket demand gave the Outback Bowl its first sellout ever, as more than 40,000 UK fans were packed among the 66,005 patrons in Raymond James Stadium. Kentucky got on the board first with 7:36 remaining in the first quarter. At the PSU 36-yard line, under heavy pressure, quarterback Tim Couch lofted a rainbow into the end zone that wide receiver Lance Mickelsen caught for a touchdown. Later in the opening period, UK stretched the lead to 14-3 with a 64-yard drive, capped by a 16-yard TD pass from Couch to halfback Anthony White. Key plays on the drive included a 22-yard pass from Couch to wide receiver Kevin Coleman and a 30-yard aerial to Mickelsen. From the second quarter, however, Penn State chipped away. Quarterback Kevin Thompson hit flanker Joe Nastasi with a 56-yard touchdown bomb. A second field goal from Travis Forney narrowed the UK advantage to 14-13 at halftime. The Nittany Lions took the lead for good in the third quarter on two more field goals by Forney, giving him four on the day. Penn State put the game away in the fourth quarter with a 19-yard end-around TD run by Chafie Fields. Meanwhile, the PSU defense shut out the Wildcats the last three quarters. Kentucky continued to move the ball, but three scoring opportunities came up empty - one on an interception, one on a missed field goal, and the other when the Wildcats were held on downs.

Kentucky played before a heavily partisan crowd, as almost all of the 59,221 fans were pulling for the Wildcats. Kentucky blazed to a 10-0 lead in the first quarter. The Wildcats took the opening kickoff and maneuvered 79 yards for a touchdown. Tight end James Whalen set up the TD with a 45-yard reception and Kendrick Shanklin ran it in from the 3-yard line. The Wildcats held on defense, forcing a punt. Quarterback Dusty Bonner again drove the Wildcats inside the 10-yard line before settling for a 22-yard field goal by Marc Samuel. Whalen, however, was injured during the series and was lost for the remainder of the game. Already having caught four passes for 79 yards midway through the first quarter, his presence was sorely missed. The Kentucky defense continued to stop Syracuse, including two fumble recoveries and a blocked field goal, but the Orangemen got on the board late in the second quarter. The Wildcats led at halftime, 10-7. A scoreless third quarter led to a dramatic final stanza. Samuel extended the UK lead to 13-7 with a 35-yard field goal. Syracuse countered with two scoring runs by James Mungro, taking a 20-13 lead. Kentucky got its last chance by taking over on its own 4-yard line with only 1:35 remaining and no timeouts. Bonner did a great job of moving the team to the Syracuse 41-yard line, but ran out of time, and a desperation heave on the game’s final play fell incomplete. Bonner led the UK attack by completing 30 of 43 passes for 308 yards and he also ran for 16 yards. In his final game as a Wildcat, running back Anthony White

entucky quarterback André Woodson threw for 299 yards with three touchdowns and the Wildcats won their first bowl game in 22 years with a 28-20 victory over Clemson in front of a record 68,024 fans at the 2006 Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl in Nashville, Tenn. Woodson, the game’s Most Valuable Player, completed 20-of-28 passes and finished the season with 31 touchdown strikes, joining Tim Couch as the only Wildcats in school history to reach 30 TD tosses in a season. Woodson directed an offense that gave the Wildcats their sixth bowl win in school history by setting a UK record for most points scored in a bowl game. Kentucky, making its first postseason appearance since 1999, used some offensive wrinkles to score its first-half points. The Wildcats quickly got on the board with a one-yard run by Micah Johnson less than four minutes into the game. Johnson, normally a linebacker, was called upon in the short-yardage situation and the 270pounder bulldozed his way into the end zone for his first collegiate score. The Wildcat defense gave ground early, but Clemson stayed off the scoreboard after a pair of missed field goals. The Tigers finally tallied and came within one, 7-6, after a 32-yard pass by quarterback Will Proctor to Durrell Barry in the second quarter. From there, both teams combined for four turnovers on the next seven plays, but UK closed the half with another surprise maneuver. Facing fourth down and four yards to go from his own 20-yard line, Wildcat punter

Tim Masthay faked a punt and completed a 10-yard pass to Marcus McClinton for the first down. On the next play, Woodson followed with a 70-yard bomb to receiver DeMoreo Ford to go into the locker room up 14-6. Meanwhile, the Kentucky defense stiffened, stopping the Tigers on six consecutive possessions in the second and third quarters. The Wildcat offense took advantage, making it 21-6 early in the second half after a Clemson fumble. Woodson found wide receiver Dicky Lyons Jr. on a short sideline pass and Lyons took it the rest of the way for a 24-yard score. UK built its lead to 28-6 with a touchdown pass to tight end Jacob Tamme with 11:29 remaining in the game. Trading yardage for time, Kentucky gave up a pair of clock-eating scoring drives and clinched the victory when Tamme recovered an onside kick with less than a minute to go.

And, as was typical of the season, a variety of players contributed to UK tallying its most points ever in a bowl game. Versatile tailback Rafael Little had one of his best games as a Wildcat, rushing for 152 yards while catching eight passes for 50 yards and a touchdown. Wide receiver Steve Johnson caught seven balls for 124 yards and two TDs. Not expected to participate because of a knee injury, determined wideout Keenan Burton played anyway and also snagged seven passes. Linebacker Wesley Woodyard checked in with his usual solid performance, a game-high 15 tackles. Kentucky struck quickly and never trailed. Safety Roger Williams blocked a punt on the first possession of the game and tight end Jacob Tamme got the Wildcats on the board with a 14-yard touchdown catch. However, a fumble near the FSU goal line and a missed field goal ruined other UK scoring chances and the teams were tied at 14 apiece at halftime. Like the year before, Kentucky took control in the third quarter. Woodson directed a pair of 80-yard touchdown drives, with Little scoring on a two-yard pass reception and tailback Tony Dixon running it home from four yards away.

FSU:

UK made the score 35-21 in the fourth quarter on a 38-yard pass to Johnson, but just like the previous year, the opponent rallied late. FSU drove for a touchdown, got the ball back and was able to throw a bomb to the end zone on the game’s final play, but cornerback David Jones knocked down the pass to preserve the victory. The win marked some big milestones for the Kentucky football program. This was the first time since the 1950 and ‘51 seasons that the Wildcats notched bowl victories in consecutive years. It was the first time since 1976-77 that UK won eight games in back-to-back seasons.

2009 • AUTOZONE LIBERTY BOWL // KENTUCKY 25, EAST CAROLINA 19 efensive end Ventrell Jenkins scored the game-winning touchdown on a 56-yard fumble return as the Kentucky Wildcats defeated East Carolina 25-19 in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl and won their third-straight bowl game for the first time in school history. With the game tied at 19 and less than four minutes remaining, UK defensive tackle Myron Pryor knocked the ball away from an ECU running back. The 6-foot-2, 285-pound Jenkins scooped up the ball, stiff-armed a Pirate lineman, and thundered his way down the sideline towards the end zone. The senior from Columbia, S.C., pulled a double move on East Carolina quarterback Patrick Pinkney with a devastating stiff arm – knocking an earpad out of Pinkney’s helmet -- and a high step. Jenkins said the next thing he remembered was lying in the end zone with his teammates on top of him. Jenkins’ return capped a big Kentucky comeback. East Carolina led 16-3 at halftime, but senior cornerback David Jones gave a huge lift to the Wildcats by opening the second half with a 99-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. It set a record for the longest kickoff return in the 50-year history of the Liberty Bowl. Kentucky’s lone offensive touchdown came minutes after Jones’ kickoff return. Sophomore wide receiver Kyrus Lanxter caught a pass from quarterback Mike Hartline, broke a tackle, and made a nice inside move to avoid another defender and get into the end zone for a 19-yard touchdown reception. Lones Seiber’s extra point tied the game at 16 and the teams traded field goals before Jenkins’ game-winning fumble rumble. Following Jenkins’ TD, Kentucky got a huge break when East Carolina accidentally downed the kickoff on its own one-yard line. With the help of two pass breakups from freshman cornerback Randall Burden, who was subbing for injured All-American Trevard Lindley, the UK defense forced a punt. UK took over with 2:34 to play and senior tailback Tony Dixon clinched the victory with six straight running plays, grinding out two first downs to run out the clock. Dixon led all rushers with 89 yards on a career-high 28 carries. Hartline completed 19 of 31 passes for 204 yards

and a touchdown. Lanxter set career highs with five catches for 46 yards. Kentucky’s defense held up its end of the bargain with several big plays, totaling nine tackles for loss, three quarterback sacks, seven pass breakups and the game’s decisive touchdown. Senior linebacker Braxton Kelley made eight tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss and one sack. Defensive tackle Myron Pryor went out with a bang with a career-high seven tackles, one for loss, the caused fumble and a pass breakup. East Carolina took an early 10-0 lead in the first quarter after a Ben Hartman field goal and a 28-yard rushing touchdown by Brandon Simmons. Kentucky got on the board midway through the second quarter with a 21-yard field goal by Seiber, but 12 seconds later East Carolina increased its lead with an 80-yard touchdown pass from Pinkney to Darryl Freeney. That gave the Pirates a 16-3 lead at halftime and set the stage for UK’s second-half heroics. Jenkins was named the game’s overall Most Valuable player, while Hartline and Kelley were selected UK’s most outstanding offensive and defensive players, respectively. After all the bowl games were completed, Jones and Pryor were named to “All-Bowl Teams” by various college football websites in honor of their outstanding performances.

2009 • GAYLORD HOTELS MUSIC CITY BOWL // CLEMSON 21, KENTUCKY 13 he exciting duo of Derrick Locke and Randall Cobb combined for 224 all-purpose yards and senior Lones Seiber kicked two field goals, but Clemson downed the Kentucky 21-13 in what would turn out to be head coach Rich Brooks’ final game on the sidelines. Played at Nashville’s LP Field before a crowd of 57,280, the game was primarily dominated by the defenses. Kentucky gained 277 total yards and Clemson’s potent attack was limited to 321 total yards. Kentucky got on the board on its first possession of the game. True freshman quarterback Morgan Newton drove the Wildcats 61 yards, the final 17 on a touchdown pass to junior wide receiver Chris Matthews. Seiber provided the rest of the scoring for the Wildcats, booting field goals of 39 and 44 yards. Clemson, champion of the Atlantic Division of the Atlantic Coast Conference, gradually moved back into contention. The Tigers tied the score at 7-7 on a 32-yard touchdown pass from Kyle Parker to Jacoby Ford, then went ahead 14-10 at halftime with one-yard run by Jamie Harper. Trailing 14-13 to start the fourth quarter, the Wildcats forced a three-and-out and took over at their own 13-yard line. Newton completed a short pass, but Clemson linebacker Kavell Konnor forced the ball loose and the Tigers recovered the only turnover of the game. AllAmerica tailback C.J. Spiller scored three plays later as Clemson went up 21-13. Kentucky tried to battle back on the following possession, keeping the drive alive on a fourth-down conversion by punter Ryan Tydlacka. Four plays later, Newton came up inches short on a fourth-and-eight scramble, and the Wildcats turned the ball over on downs. Clemson was able to run out the remaining time on the clock.

Clemson:

Spiller, the ACC Player of the Year, was the game’s Most Valuable Player. Despite his gaudy numbers entering the game and Heisman-caliber resume, the Kentucky defense did a solid job on Spiller, allowing him just 67 rushing yards and one TD. Sophomore linebacker Danny Trevathan led the UK defense with eight tackles, including one for loss, and caused one fumble. Junior cornerback Paul Warford and senior linebacker Micah Johnson added five tackles each. The loss snapped Kentucky’s three-game bowl winning streak, the longest in school history. Following the game, Brooks announced he probably would step down as head coach and turn the headset over to offensive head coach, and selected coach-in-waiting, Joker Phillips. Brooks finalized the decision a week later. The game marked the second time in four seasons Kentucky played Clemson in the Music City Bowl. The Wildcats won the previous meeting in 2006, 28-20.

2010 • BBVA COMPASS BOWL // PITTSBURGH 27, KENTUCKY 10 n what would eventually be his final game as a Kentucky Wildcat, UK All-American Randall Cobb earned a game-high 204 all-purpose yards, breaking the Southeastern Conference single-season record as Kentucky fell 27-10 to Big East tri-champion Pittsburgh in the 2011 BBVA Compass Bowl. The bowl appearance was the school-record fifth consecutive for the Wildcats, who have now appeared in postseason play a total of 15 times with an 8-7 record. The bowl appearance for head coach Joker Phillips marked the first time in school history that a UK coach has gone to a bowl game in his first season on the job. Kentucky entered the game with new faces on the coaching staff and at quarterback as co-defensive coordinator Rick Minter coached his first game with the Wildcats, while sophomore Morgan Newton gained his first start of the season at quarterback after the suspension of senior Mike Hartline. Minter’s defense performed well in the game, limiting Pittsburgh to 96 passing yards on just nine completions while Randall Burden grabbed a key interception in the first quarter. Danny Trevathan led UK in tackles with 14, while Winston Guy had eight tackles, a tackle-for-loss and a pass breakup. On the offensive side, Newton was 21-for-36 for 211 yards, while senior Derrick Locke paced UK in rushing and receiving with 12 rushes for 71 yards and six receptions for 61 yards. Cobb ended his UK career with three rushes for 23 yards and five catches for 62 yards. The game started with Pittsburgh receiving the ball and marching 53 yards down the field before Tino Sunseri was

picked off by Burden to swing momentum to the Wildcats. After Newton completed three consecutive passes and Locke had a brilliant 28-yard rush into Pitt territory, the Wildcats made their only turnover of the game and fumbled the ball. The Panthers then went three and out and on the ensuing position, Craig McIntosh drilled a 50-yard field goal to give the Wildcats their lone lead of the game 3-0. Pittsburgh took the lead late in the second quarter 6-3 after Dan Hutchins hit back-to-back field goals from 21 and 33 yards. The Panthers scored their first touchdown late in the quarter on a one-yard quarterback sneak by Sunseri to go up 13-3 at halftime. The teams traded touchdowns in the third quarter. On Pitt’s first possession of the half, Sunseri hit Brock DeCicco for a touchdown to give the Panthers their biggest lead of the game at 20-3. The Wildcats put together a good drive later in the quarter. Newton guided the Cats 74 yards on 14 plays, capped when senior fullback Moncell Allen bulldozed in from one-yard out to cut the lead to 20-10. Pittsburgh tacked on its final touchdown in the fourth quarter.

Darryl Bishop of Louisville, whose final season was 1973, remains the UK leader in career interceptions with 14 . . . One of his most notable interceptions took place on Nov. 6, 1971, at Dudley Field in Nashville . . . With UK and Vanderbilt knotted at 7-7 and less than 50 seconds to play, Kentucky elected to punt facing a 4th-and-8 situation from its own 44 . . . Walter Overton made a fair catch at the Commodore 30, giving Vandy a first down . . . After QB Steve Burger lost four yards on the first play, the Commodores elected not to use a timeout . . . Then as time expired, Burger lofted a pass toward receiver Gary Chesley . . . The ball never got to Chesley as Bishop picked off the aerial and raced 43 yards for the winning score, giving UK a 14-7 victory on the game’s final play.

UNIVERSITY KENTUCKY QUICK FACTS DR. ELI OF CAPILOUTO, PRESIDENT r. Eli Capilouto became the 12th President of the University of Kentucky on July 1, 2011. A native of Montgomery, Alabama, Dr. Capilouto previously served as Provost of the University of AlabamaBirmingham (UAB) and Dean of the UAB School of Public Health – a period of remarkable growth and transformation at one of the leading academic and health sciences institutions in the South. Since his arrival, Dr. Capilouto has intently engaged with University and community stakeholders to renew our founding mission and vision as a public, Flagship, Land Grant and Research University – what he has termed the Kentucky Promise. This shared covenant calls upon the University of Kentucky to be a shining beacon

THE UNIVERSITY

D

for the Commonwealth of Kentucky – building a bright future for the people we serve through a comprehensive academic experience that prepares students to compete in a global, 21st century economy; groundbreaking research and discovery that pushes the boundaries of science and improves industry; and outreach through our extension network and critical care medical enterprise to uplift communities and citizens of the Commonwealth. Critically important to fulfilling this Promise, Dr. Capilouto has led a process to enhance UK’s undergraduate experience by increasing institutional investments in merit-based financial aid, including the prestigious Singletary Scholarship; expanding the University Honors Program; and entering into an innovative public/private partnership to revitalize the core of campus and create a modern living/learning community. Research at the University of Kentucky is a dynamic enterprise encompassing both traditional scholarship and emerging technologies, and

UK’s research faculty, staff and students are establishing UK as one of the nation’s most prolific public research universities in the nation. Dr. Capilouto is committed to growing the research enterprise through high-quality partnerships, both domestic and international, and by recruiting top scholars across the world. Essential to the service mission of the University of Kentucky is the advanced patient care and outreach provided by UK HealthCare. As the flagship academic-medical center in the region, UK serves patients through a network of health care professionals around the Commonwealth and by providing acute medical care at UK Chandler Hospital. Dr. Capilouto holds several undergraduate and graduate degrees from schools within the University of Alabama system, and a Doctorate in Health Policy and Management from Harvard University. He and his wife, Dr. Mary Lynne Capilouto (D.M.D.) a former Dean of the UAB School of Dentistry, have one daughter.

MITCH BARNHART, DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS itch Barnhart is in his 11th year at the University of Kentucky. Since his arrival in 2002, one of Barnhart’s goals has been to build an athletic program competitive in all sports and there has been significant progress in that direction. In the past year alone, Wildcat Athletics totaled four conference championships (tying the record set in 2004-05), four SEC Coaches of the Year and four SEC Players of the Year. The crowning achievement was the men’s basketball national championship, the second year in a row that a UK team won a national title. Combined with other achievements, these feats are fulfilling Barnhart’s ambitious course for the future, which was revealed in November 2008 with the 15 by 15 by 15 Plan. The goals are to win at least 15 conference or national championships and rank among the NCAA’s top 15 athletic programs by 2015 – all of which would be unprecedented achievements for UK Athletics – while continuing to expand the department’s service to the commonwealth of Kentucky. Another goal is a cumulative 3.0 grade-point average for UK’s 500-plus studentathletes on an annual basis. UK’s steady improvement in the Directors’

2012 KENTUCKY FOOTBALL

Cup standings under Barnhart has been highlighted with two 29th-place finishes in the last three years . It is the school’s best showing since Barnhart’s arrival, its top finish since 1997-98 and only three slots away from the best mark in school history. The primary academic target was met during the 2010 spring semester as UK’s student-athletes notched a composite 3.04 GPA. but Barnhart wants to continue to see academic success and improvement in the future. In addition, UK has consistently posted strong numbers in the NCAA Academic Progress Rate as every one of UK’s 22 varsity sports have avoided penalties in the APR’s nine-year existence. School records have been set for graduation rates. Additional initiatives begun under Barnhart’s leadership include fully funding all 22 varsity sports with maximum number of scholarships and coaches; creating the UK Athletics Hall of Fame; initiating the CATSPYs, an awards program that honors the best of UK Athletics; the construction of the Joe Craft Center, a $30 million facility that includes practice and administrative space for a variety of sports; more than $14 million of football facility improvements; and the construction of a new $12 million track the Wildcat Coal Lodge dormitory and a new softball stadium. Barnhart’s influence reaches far beyond the fields of competition. Despite athletics’ urgent financial needs, Barnhart directs a $1.7-million

annual contribution to the University’s scholarship program, an amount he has increased to $3 million for the 2012-13 school year. Social responsibility in the Commonwealth of Kentucky also is a priority for Barnhart, who is extremely active in community service and encourages UK athletics staff and student-athletes to do the same. In the last two years, UK football players have made educational/service trips to Ethiopia, a program that has been expanded to include athletes from multiple sports. All totaled, UK athletes give approximately 4,000 hours of community service annually. Barnhart has been involved on the national level as well and in 2010 became the chair of the NCAA Basketball Issues Committee. Barnhart arrived at UK from Oregon State, where he served four successful years (19982002) as athletics director. Before OSU, he worked in athletics administration posts at Tennessee (1986-98), Southern Methodist University (1983-86), Oregon (1983) and San Diego State (1982-83). Barnhart is a native of Kansas City, Kan. He earned his bachelor’s degree from Ottawa University (Kansas) in 1981 and a master’s in sports administration from Ohio University in 1982. His family includes his wife, Connie, three children, Blaire, Scott, Kirby Willoughby and her husband, McKenzie.

WILDCAT PLAYER INTERVIEWS All player interviews must be coordinated through the UK Media Relations Office. Approximately 3-5 players are usually available at the Monday news conference. Depending on class schedules or other commitments, most players are available to the media after practice, Tuesday and Wednesday. Postpractice interviews will be conducted at the Nutter Training Facility or by telephone. On game days, interviews will be granted only after the conclusion of the contest. Telephone interviews are available to the media on a “call-back” basis only. Individual player telephone numbers WILL NOT be given to members of the media. Players are instructed NOT to conduct interviews when contacted directly by telephone. The UK Media Relations Office will arrange for telephone interviews at a time most convenient for the student-athlete. Other special requests are handled on a case-by-case basis.

by the SEC and its member institutions: 1. The SEC and its member institutions grant a media organization a limited license to use certain gathered information on the media organization’s own Internet or online site beginning at the start of an athletic event and up to the conclusion of such event, all subject to the following limitations and conditions: (a) No more than 10 still photographs may be used for news coverage of the game and other editorial purposes during the event. Such still photographs must be used on a timedelayed basis that is at least five (5) minutes after the happening of the event depicted by the still photograph. (b) Video tape may only be shown as part of a single, non-archived, online “simulcast” of a television station’s regularly-scheduled news program. (c) While a game is in progress, the use of textual statistical information is time-delayed and limited in amount (e.g., updates pertaining to score, injuries and national, conference or institutional record-breaking performances, a condensed half-time story) so that an organization’s Internet or online game coverage does not undercut the authorized and rights-paying fee organization’s rights to play-by-play accounts of the game and/or exclusivity as to such rights. 2. Any proposed media use on an Internet or online sight of the game information that is more detailed and/or more than described above will require separate written authorization by the SEC and/or its member institutions. However, such written authorization will not permit the use of game information in entertainment contexts and will not authorize game coverage that, due to immediacy or detail, constitutes or approaches a playby-play account of a game. 3. Should any of these conditions be breached, the SEC and/or its member institutions will issue a written warning for the first violation. If this violation occurs during the last game of the institutions’ regularly-scheduled season, the media organization may not be credentialed for the SEC Football Championship Game. A second violation of this policy will result in revocation of credentials to cover future football games hosted by the SEC and/or its member institutions.

THE MEDIA

he University of Kentucky is in the midst of a landmark 10-year deal for the University’s expanded multi-media marketing rights. The agreement was signed in 2005 with IMG College (formerly Host Communications) and Gray Television. IMG, UK’s radio and television partner for most of the past three decades, teams with Lexington TV station WKYT to pay the University $80.5 million during the term of the contract, making it one of the most lucrative deals of its kind in NCAA history. In addition to radio and TV rights for football and men’s basketball, the UK IMG Sports Network also features women’s basketball and baseball, corporate sponsorships, stadium and arena signage, and the official athletics website, UKathletics.com. At press time, IMG has compiled 62 radio stations, including two stations – WHAS (840 AM) in Louisville and WCKY (1530 AM) in Cincinnati – with clear-channel 50,000-watt signal. The agreement with IMG enhances UK’s national and regional broadcasting presence. Also enhancing UK’s national presence is the Southeastern Conference’s 15-year deal with ESPN and CBS. Every SEC football and men’s basketball game is available via CBS or an ESPN affiliate which began in 2009. ESPN’s deal, reportedly worth more than $2 billion, has rights to every SEC home football game not on the CBS package and all league matchups will be shown on some outlet, including at least 20 a year on ESPN or ESPN2. That includes two primetime Thursday night matchups and Saturday night games. In addition to the SEC TV pacts, the UK IMG Sports Network features full-game, tapedelay action of all Wildcats home and selected away games that are not televised by CBS or ESPN. The network serves eight over-the-air stations and Fox Sports Net South on cable. For the 2012 football season, the UK radio broadcast team consists of play-by-play announcer Tom Leach (23 years with the network, 15th season on play-by-play), former Wildcat Jeff Piecoro (10th season) as the analyst, pregame host/sideline reporter/post-game host Dick Gabriel (23rd season), and pregame analyst Oscar Combs (15th season).
