Mark Stoops is very angry with the referees, and for good reasons.

Wildcats sophomore safety Jordan Lovett went to recover a fumble late in the second quarter that would have given him a clear defensive touchdown to extend Kentucky’s lead.

The refs, however, ruled the play of Ball State down. After the review, the call was overturned as Kentucky was given the ball at the 31-yard line.

Stoops was not happy with the refs’ decision to not let the play continue and rule the play dead as he let them have it after the ruling.

Kentucky is in a tough battle at home versus Ball State as the Cardinals took a 7-3 lead at the end of the first quarter. Kentucky scored 17 unanswered points on Ball State.

In a game where the offense of the Wildcats is struggling, they could use any boost from their defense they can. That defensive touchdown would’ve helped.

Kentucky extended its lead 23-7 into halftime thanks to a 46-yard field goal from Raynor.
