Things are not going well for Kentucky early on against Eastern Kentucky.
The Wildcats have already had a punt blocked and had a turnover on downs as Kentucky tails 7-0 after the first quarter.
Quarterback Devin Leary and the Wildcats’ offense can’t seem to find any momentum. They put together an 11-play drive, but Leary took a sack on fourth down that ruined their chances of an early lead.
On the defensive side, the Wildcats gave up an early touchdown to Eastern Kentucky after having a punt blocked.

Kentucky needs a lot of fixes if the Wildcats want to avoid an early loss to a much weaker team, and luckily for them it’s just the second quarter.
Last week against Ball State, Kentucky led just 7-3 after the first quarter, but managed to get 20 unanswered points in the second quarter. The Wildcats will need another big second quarter to get past EKU.

Regardless, Kentucky is not looking like the team many thought they could be coming into the season. Fans and media had plenty of thoughts on the Wildcats’ pitiful start.
I don’t know how Leary takes a sack right there
Kentucky does not look ready to play at all today

The narrative all week for Kentucky Football was cleaning up mistakes from the season-opener. So far, they're just making more. Dane Key missed a big catch on third down, Devin Leary takes a sack on 4th down. Three penalties so far.
Wake up, Cats.

This Kentucky team is so so pitiful

Gotta say, all the off-season hype suggested we could be a problem in the SEC. Not sure I understand how the staff says that and can’t get the team ready to play a crappy team the 2nd game of the year. Love the cats, but sheesh. #kentucky @KSRonX
