THE Jr. 11 TENTATIVE STARTERS Soph. 4 RFr. 0 Fr. 0 TENNESSEE Tennessee running back Montario Hardesty rushed for a career-high 179 yards and three touchdowns, including the game-winning score in overtime, to lead the Volunteers to a 30-24 win over Kentucky in front of 70,981 fans in Commonwealth Stadium, the sixth-largest crowd in school history. The UK defense started the scoring as linebacker Sam Maxwell intercepted a pass from UT quarterback Jonathan Crompton on the Volunteers’ opening drive and returned it 56 yards for a touchdown. Maxwell’s pick was his fourth in the last five games and put UK up 7-0. Tennessee responded on its next possession with a three-play, 60-yard drive that ended with a Hardesty 9-yard touchdown run to knot the score at seven. At the end of the quarter, Randall Cobb converted a fourth-and-1 play at the UT 31 and then ran for a 17-yard touchdown four plays later to give the Wildcats a 14-7 advantage. The Volunteers tied the score in the second quarter on its longest drive of the game. Hardesty capped off an eight-play, 66-yard drive with a 14-yard touchdown run. Kentucky answered with a touchdown on its longest drive of the game as Derrick Locke wrapped up a nine-play, 54-yard movement with a 1-yard plunge into the end zone. Locke’s sixth rushing touchdown of the season gave UK a 21-14 lead at the half. The Wildcat defense thwarted a UT scoring threat early in the second half when Corey Peters stopped Crompton on a 4th-and-goal from the UK 1yard line. The Volunteers scored later in the quarter when Crompton threw a 16-yard touchdown strike to tight end Luke Stocker to tie the game for the third time. UT took its first lead of the game at 24-21 after Devin Mathis connected on a 30-yard field goal at the end of the quarter. The fourth quarter remained scoreless until the final minute of the game. With just over two minutes left in regulation, UK’s Ashton Cobb caused a fumble by Stocker which was recovered by Wildcat defensive end Taylor Wyndham at the UT 37-yard line. Seven plays later Lones Seiber tied the score at 24 on a 23-yard field goal with 33 seconds on the clock. In overtime, UK started on offense but did not score as Seiber’s 49-yard field goal attempt sailed wide left. Tennessee then took over on offense and Hardesty clinched the game on a 20-yard dash to the end zone on the Volunteers’ third play from scrimmage. On defense, Micah Johnson totaled a career-high 16 tackles, giving him six doubledigit performances this season and 10 for his career. Maxwell’s sixth pick of the season tied him for third all-time for interceptions in a season. Defensive end DeQuin Evans made two tackles-for-loss, including a sack. He leads the team in both categories this season with six sacks and 12.5 TFL. mileStoneS to watcH • Derrick Locke (2,450 career rushing yards) - Needs 198 yards to tie George Adams (1981-84 2,648) for fifth place on the UK career rushing list. • Derrick Locke (4,584 career all-purpose yards) - Needs 759 yards to tie Rafael Little (2004-07) for second place on the UK career all-purpose list. • Randall Cobb (2,047 single season all-purpose yards) - Needs 263 yards to tie Darren McFadden (2,310 in 2007) for the SEC single-season record. • Randall Cobb (226 career points) - Needs six points to tie Seth Hanson (1997-98, 2000-01) for third place on the UK career scoring list. • Randall Cobb (1,265 rushing yards) - Needs 32 yards to tie Don Phelps(1946-49) at No. 22 on the career rushing list. • Randall Cobb (126 career pass receptions) - Needs three more to tie Derek Homer (1997-2000) for eighth on the career pass receptions list. • Mike Hartline (5,408 career passing yards) - Needs 156 yards to tie Bill Randsell (1983-86) for fourth place on the UK career list. • Danny Trevathan (15 single-season tackles for loss) - Needs three to tie Vincent Burns (18 TFL in 2003) for third place on the UK single-season list.

BIG GAMES AGAINST TENNESSEE 1950 - On a frigid afternoon in Knoxville, Tennessee knocked off the undefeated Wildcats, 7-0. The game's only score came on a 27-yard pass from Hank Lauricella to Burt Rechichar in the second quarter. The Volunteers limited the Wildcats to 186 yards total offense and the Wildcats turned it over 12 times, including eight fumbles lost and four interceptions. Kentucky went on to upset No. 1-ranked Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl while Tennessee finished its season by dispatching Texas in the CottonBowl. Ironically, both Kentucky and Tennessee, along with Oklahoma and Princeton, have a claim on the 1950 National Championship. Kentucky is the '50 national champ according to the Sagarin Ratings, while Tennessee is the champ according to five selectors. 1957 - Led by All-American Lou Michaels, UK stunned No. 12-ranked Tennessee with a 20-6 upset. Michaels scored the first touchdown of the game when he recovered a Volunteer fumble in the endzone. On the ensuing kickoff, he knocked loose a fumble that was recovered by the Wildcats and led to another TD. Ordinarily a tackle, Michaels was moved to middle linebacker for this game and he dominated the action. This game was one of Coach Blanton Collier's wins over UT as Collier had a 52-1 record against the Volunteers. 1984 - George Adams ran for 110 yards and two touchdowns as Kentucky defeated Tennessee, 17-12, in Knoxville, representing UK's most recent victory over the Volunteers. Adams scored on a two-yard run on the game's first possession and the Wildcats never trailed. Tennessee threatened to win the game on the last possession, but ran out of time after driving to the Kentucky 13-yard line. cat ScratcHeS UK IN THE BLUE ZONE (20-AND-IN) Kentucky has converted 38 of 45 opportunities (84.4 percent) in the “Blue Zone” (20-yard-line and in) for 32 touchdowns, six field goals, three missed field goals, two turnovers, one held on downs and one end of half.

THE HART(LINE) OF THE nent since Tim Couch hit 83 percent, 44-of-53, against Vanderbilt in 1998. Hartline now has 5,176 career passing yards and ranks fifth on UK’s alltime list. He needs 388 more passing yards to tie Bill Ransdell (1983-86) for fourth place.

UK rushed for more than 200 yards and passed for more than 200 yards in its first three games, marking the first time that has happened in school history. It’s interesting to note, however, with the injury to starting tailback Derrick Locke against Auburn - which caused Locke to miss four games the Wildcats have tilted heavily toward the pass. With Locke out, UK averaged 109.75 rushing yards and 308.5 passing yards per game. With Locke’s return against Vanderbilt, the Wildcats went back to a more of a rushing offense, with 43 rush attempts for 341 yards and 24 pass attempts for 239 yards. COBB SETS SCHOOL RECORD FOR CAREER TOUCHDOWNS With the game-winning touchdown against South Carolina on Oct. 16, junior Randall Cobb broke the school record for career touchdowns with 33 breaking the previous record of 32 set by Craig Yeast (1995-98). He now has 37 touchdowns in just 34 career games and has scored at least one touchdown in 17 of the last 20 games. OFFENSE Senior quarterback Mike Hartline has completed 237-of-361 passes for 2,906 yards, 22 touchdowns and just eight interceptions. He ranks second in the SEC in average passing yards (264.2) and third in total offense (261.8). He has posted 300 yards passing in three games this season. In UK’s victory over Charleston Southern, Hartline became only the fifth player in school history to reach 5,000 yards, joining Jared Lorenzen, Andre’ Woodson, Tim Couch and Bill Ransdell. In the win over No. 10 South Carolina, Hartline completed a then-careerhigh 32-of-42 passes for a 349 yards and four touchdowns. Hartline had another career day against Georgia, completing 27-of-43 passes for a new career-high 353 yards and a career-high tying four touchdowns. He also looked impressive against undefeated Auburn, completing 23-of-28 passes for a career-best 82.1 percent, 220 yards and one touchdown. It was the best completion percentage for a UK quarterback against a conference oppo- Junior wide receiver Randall Cobb was named first-team All-SEC as an all-purpose player by several publications. He has scored at least one touchdown in 23 of 34 career games, including 17 of the last 20.

UK has run 53 plays from that set this year, generating 375 yards, seven touchdowns, 17 first downs and an average of 7.1 yards per play. Kentucky’s success with Cobb last season led Todd Wright of The Sporting News Radio Network to dub it the “WildCobb” formation. RYAN TYDLACKA Ray Guy Award (nation’s best punter) COBB UP FOR HORNUNG AWARD Randall Cobb is a candidate for the new Paul Hornung Award as the most versatile player in major-college football. He splits his time between wide receiver, quarterback, punt and kickoff returner. He also is the holder for extra points and field goals. Although he is only in his junior season, Cobb has already set a new school record with 37 total touchdowns -- 22 rushing, 13 receiving and two on punt returns. He’s also thrown for five TDs during his UK career, including one on a fake field goal vs. Florida earlier this season. Cobb currently leads the Wildcats in receiving with 66 catches for 839 yards and seven touchdowns, is fourth in rushing with 376 yards and five TDs, has returned a punt for a touchdown and has a 23.5yard average on kickoff returns. He posted his second career 100-yard receiving game with a career-high 12 catches for a career-high 171 receiving yards and one touchdown against Mississippi State and is second in the SEC and ranks 25th nationally in receptions per game with 6.0. Cobb is first in the SEC and second nationally in all-purpose yardage, averaging 186.1 yards per game. Cobb has received a weekly award as a Most Versatile Performer by the Louisville Sports Commission seven times this season, more than any other player in the nation. The Louisville Sports Commission sponsors the Hornung Award. In his previous game against Vanderbilt, Cobb rushed for a career-high 170 yards and two touchdowns, including an impressive 73-yard rush for a score to open the second half and put the Wildcats ahead for good. WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ABOUT RANDALL COBB “Randall Cobb is certainly the most versatile player in college football. To me, he’s the most dynamic player in the nation. If you’re looking for the best player in college football, why not talk about Randall Cobb?” -- Mel Kiper, ESPN analyst “There’s not a better all-around player in college football than Kentucky’s Randall Cobb.” -Chris Low, ESPN.com Mississippi State defensive coordinator Manny Diaz said Randall Cobb presents a “unique challenge” that’s different than facing Auburn’s Cameron Newton, a frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy. “In a way, (Cobb) presents a more dynamic element than Newton even, because he can be lined up anywhere,” Diaz said. “Cam Newton is tough to deal with, but they snap it to him every play for the most part. But with Cobb, there’s no telling.” Diaz’ words proved prophetic as Cobb tallied a career-high 292 all-purpose yards against the Bulldogs. “On the play-byplay sheets from University of Kentucky football games, Randall Cobb’s name is omnipresent. There’s Cobb returning the kickoff. Then Cobb catching a pass. Cobb making plays any way his coaches can imagine -- throwing, running, catching or returning, darting and shape-shifting his way downfield.” -- Jordan Conn, SI.com “I just like classy guys who represent their school in the right way. I think he is a dynamic player and he is going to play at the next level and I can’t wait until he gets the heck out of this league.” douBle-FiGure tacKlerS 2010 Danny Trevathan 8 10 vs. Louisville 15 vs. Ole Miss 17 vs. Auburn 11 vs. South Carolina 11 vs. Georgia 16 vs. Mississippi State 13 vs. Charleston Southern 10 vs. Vanderbilt Career 9 3 Winston Guy 10 vs. South Carolina 16 vs. Charleston Southern 18 vs. Vanderbilt 4 intercePtionS Mychal Bailey Randall Burden Winston Guy Shane McCord Luke McDermott Anthony Mosley Cartier Rice Ridge Wilson Total: 2010 1 2 1 1 1 5 Career (TDs) 1 2 (1) 2 1 1 1 1 1 9 tracKinG tHe SacK leaderS Danny Trevathan Luke McDermott Taylor Wyndham Mark Crawford Martav.

In his first season at UK, he was the team’s second-leading pass catcher and had the most receptions by a UK junior-college player in his debut season since Jimmy Robinson in 1997. Matthews has picked up where he left off last year, as the 6-foot-5 receiver is a favorite target for quarterback Mike Hartline. Matthews is second on the team behind Randall Cobb with 51 catches for a 812 yards. He is averaging an impressive 15.9 yards per catch. His nine touchdown receptions is good for the SEC lead in that category. Two weeks ago against Vanderbilt, Matthews caught five passes for 97 yards, including a score on a 55-yard pass from Hartline, which was his longest career reception. Against South Carolina, Matthews had a career day with 12 catches for 177 yards, both career highs. It was his second 100-yard receiving performance of the year (also 114 yards vs. Florida) and his career. His 12 receptions tied for the second-most receptions in a game in UK history and the 177 yards marked the fourth-highest receiving yards total in a single game. KING OF THE END ZONE Sophomore La’Rod King is quickly making a name for himself as he emerges as a big playmaker for the Wildcat offense. The 6-foot-4 wide receiver currently ranks third on the team in receptions behind Cobb and Chris Matthews with 32 catches for 427 yards. He averages 13.3 yards per Senior tailback Derrick Locke became the seventh player in UK history to reach 2,000 rushing yards vs. Akron. He surpassed 100 yards rushing in UK’s first four games and has crossed the century mark five times this season. Locke is the first Wildcat to post four straight 100-yard rushing games since Artose Pinner in 2002. catch and has five touchdowns this season, including two in the win over South Carolina and two against Georgia. OVER THE CENTURY MARK Kentucky tailback Derrick Locke surpassed 100 yards rushing in the first four games of the season and has crossed the century mark in five of his seven games this seaso. He has rushed for 100 yards or more eight times in his career as a Wildcat. Artose Pinner was the last Wildcat to run for 100 yards in four consecutive games in 2002. Included in the four-game spree was a career-high 166 yards vs. Akron and during that game Locke became just the seventh player in UK history to reach 2,000 rushing yards. He now has 2,450 career yards on the ground and ranks sixth on UK’s all-time rushing list. Locke rushed for “only” 68 yards and two touchdowns at Ole Miss, but that didn’t stop him from reaching the century mark as he caught eight passes for a career-best 108 receiving yards. Locke had missed three conference games (South Carolina, Georgia and Mississippi State) and UK’s non-conference game with Charleston Southern because of a shoulder stinger before returning against Vanderbilt. The senior tailback was back to his old self in the game, rushing 22 times for 145 yards, including a career-long rush of 83 yards for a touchdown. REBUILT OFFENSIVE LINE DOING WELL Kentucky has a rebuilt offensive line in 2010 with only one starter, guard Stuart Hines, returning from last season. The unit of left tackle Chandler Burden, Hines at left guard, center Matt Smith, right guard Larry Warford and right tackle Brad Durham is helping the Wildcats average 441.5 yards total offense per game, good for third in the SEC and 22nd nationally. The line has allowed 13 sacks in 11 games and ranks 24th nationally and second in the SEC in the sacks allowed category. IMPRESSIVE TALENT IN THE BACKFIELD Fans are familiar with senior tailback Derrick Locke, who already ranks in the top 10 rushers in Kentucky history and whose sub-4.3 speed is a threat to go the distance as a runner, pass receiver or kickoff returner.

Sophomore Donald Russell earned his first career start vs. South Carolina after Locke was sidelined with an injury. Against a stingy South Carolina defense that allowed UK only 52 net yards rushing, Russell had a career-high 18 rushes for 41 yards. He also caught a career-high seven passes for a career-high 70 yards receiving. But Russell’s biggest game of the year came against Charleston Southern, where the sophomore rushed for a career-high 110 yards on 10 carries scoring two touchdowns. There also is good depth with freshman Raymond Sanders, who scored two touchdowns in his first collegiate action vs. Western Kentucky and notched a score against Akron. Sanders saw extensive action vs. Georgia and earned his first career start vs. Mississippi State. Against UGA he charted a then career-high 16 rushes for 88 yards to go along with a career-high seven passes for a career-high 88 yards receiving. In the Mississippi State game, Sanders had a career-high 24 rush attempts for 71 yards. Walk-on sophomore CoShik Williams also joined in on the fun against CSU, gathering 95 yards and three touchdowns to become to first player to score three rushing touchdowns in a game since Randall Cobb rushed for three TDs against Georgia in 2008. There are huge shoes to fill at fullback following the departure of John Conner, known at UK as “The Terminator” and now a New York Jet. Moving into the role is senior Moncell Allen, who has seen significant action as a reserve tailback and fullback during his career. Nicknamed “Turtle” for his strong, compact frame (5-7, 232 pounds), he has acquired a new nickname from Derrick Locke -- “The Turtlenator.” “The Turtlenator”recorded his third career receiving TD and his second of the season against Mississippi State. tHe deFenSe • Kentucky ranks second in the SEC and 12th nationally in pass defense as the Wildcats have limited their opponents to an average of 168.36 passing yards per game. • Kentucky’s defense totaled five quarterback sacks and 11tackles-for-loss in the Vanderbilt game, a season high for TFL and tying the season high for sacks. • Kentucky surrendered only 290 total yards on defense against Georgia, the lowest total since allowing 172 yards versus Akron earlier this season and the lowest in SEC play since versus Vanderbilt in 2009. • Kentucky shutout South Carolina in the second half, marking the first time the UK defense has shutout an opponent in the second stanza since against Vanderbilt on Nov. 14, 2009. • The Wildcat defense limited South Carolina to 103 yards of total offense in the second half.

DEFENSIVE NUMBERS IMPROVED Kentucky’s defensive yardage and points allowed have shown significant reductions during the past four seasons since Steve Brown was appointed defensive coordinator in 2007. • Fewest points allowed in 17 years - UK has allowed 24.6 points per game in 2007-10, the best four-year stretch of scoring defense since allowing 24.1 per game in 1990-93 • Fewest yards allowed in 20 years - UK has allowed 356.1 yards per game in 2007-10, the best four-year stretch of total defense since allowing 328.7 yards per game in 1987-90 Note: 2007-10 stats do not include points and yards allowed in overtime, in order to fairly compare the overtime and non-overtime eras • Improved NCAA rankings Total Defense Points Per Game 2006 118th 99th (season before Steve Brown took over) 2007 67th 80th (season Steve Brown took over) 2008 40th 35th 2009 53rd 43rd 2010 42nd 81st • 2010 defense is the least experienced in 20 years, based on returning lettermen. UK has only 17 returning lettermen on defense this year, the fewest in 20 years, since the 1990 season. TREVATHAN LEADS SEC IN TACKLES As expected, junior linebacker Danny Trevathan has stepped into a leadership role on the Kentucky defense. Trevathan leads the SEC and the Wildcats with 120 total tackles, ranking tied for ninth nationally. He has 15 tackles for loss this season, third in the SEC. He charted a career-high 17 tackles vs. Auburn, marking the most tackles by a UK player since Wesley Woodyard recorded 17 vs. Arkansas in 2007. Trevathan has led UK in tackles in eight of its 11 games this season, including double-digit tackles in seven straight games. It is the longest streak since Marty Moore had double-figure tackles in 13-consecutive games in 1991-92. HE’S THE GUY Safety Winston Guy is second on the team and sixth in the SEC in tackles with 91 stops, including a season- and career-high 18 vs. Vanderbilt. Guy has led Kentucky in tackles in back-to-back games after recording a then-career high in tackles with 16 vs. Charleston Southern and his 18-tackle performance vs. Vanderbilt. The junior from Lexington grabbed his first collegiate interception in the Auburn game and also picked one off against the Gamecocks. BAILEY MAKING QUICK ADJUSTMENT Making the transition from junior college to major college football usually takes some time to adjust, but safety Mychal Bailey has proven to be a quick study. Bailey, who came to UK after two years at Southwest Mississippi Junior College, quickly earned a starting role and is third on the team with 52 tackles. He also had an interception in the win at Louisville. LUMPKIN MAKING MORE BIG PLAYS Senior defensive tackle Ricky Lumpkin set a goal of making more big plays this season and is hitting the mark so far in 2010. Lumpkin has 5.5 tackles for loss in 11 games, including a quarterback sack, and also has been credited with four quarterback hurries, including three against Vanderbilt. Although he was a starter last year, he had just 1.5 TFL and no sacks during the 2009 season MCDERMOTT ON THE MARK A pleasant development on the Wildcat defense has been the play of junior defensive tackle Luke McDermott. A walk-on from Louisville who had seen limited action prior to 2010, McDermott earned a starting role early in the season and made significant contributions in each of the first four games. Against Louisville he had a quarterback sack and a tackle for loss. He followed against Western Kentucky with a tackle for loss and an interception that set up a touchdown and had another sack to go along with four tackles against Akron. He added a sack at Florida and is tied for the team lead in sacks with three. BIG PLAY DEFENDERS MUST BE REPLACED Defensive coordinator Steve Brown has a challenge to replace six starters who made the majority of big plays for that unit last season. Tackle Corey Peters, linebackers Micah Johnson and Sam Maxwell and cornerback Trevard Lindley each earned All-Southeastern Conference honors last year and departed dependable safety Calvin Harrison had the best season of his career. New leaders must emerge to take their place. Some of the returning playmakers include defensive end DeQuin Evans, who led the team in tackles for loss and sacks last season; linebacker Danny Trevathan, the team’s secondleading tackler; and cornerback Randall Burden, who had two interceptions and eight pass breakups. SPecial ForceS An admirer of the United States military, Coach Joker Phillips hopes to emulate the military’s discipline, teamwork and efficiency with the Wildcats, most notably on special teams, which Phillips has renamed “Special Forces.” Here are some notes about the special forces: • Junior Ryan Tydlacka is in his second season as the starting punter.

He now is tied for the league-lead in touchbacks with 15 this season. Alex Tejada of Arkansas also has 15. • Randall Cobb is a capable punt returner and ranks sixth in the SEC in punt return average with 7.9 yards per runback. He has two punt return touchdowns in his career, including a 50-yard scoring return this season against Western Kentucky University. • Derrick Locke is UK’s all-time leader in kickoff return average at 27.3 per return, including a pair of 100-yarders in his career. Cobb also is good at it, posting a 26,8-yard average this year. • Matt Roark has used his 6-6 height advantage to be a force on special teams. Roark has blocked six kicks during his career, including five extra points and a field goal. He has one block this year, swatting an extra point at Florida. • UK ran a successful fake field goal at Florida, with holder Randall Cobb throwing to Chris Matthews for an 11-yard touchdown. MCINTOSH DEBUTS Sophomore Craig McIntosh has handled field goals the last eight games, making 10-of-12 field goals and 31-of-32 extra points. He has made eightconsecutive field goals, including a long of 50 yards at Ole Miss. It’s the longest streak since Taylor Begley hit nine a row in 2005. Last year, McIntosh handled the kickoff duties for Kentucky’s last 10 games, posting 11 touchbacks in 51 kickoffs. He finished 2009 ranked fourth in the SEC in total touchbacks. catScellaneouS “OPERATION WIN” BEGINS New head coach Joker Phillips calls his plan for Kentucky football “Operation Win” -- win in the classroom, win in the community and win on the field. “Operation Win is definitely a process, a growing process,” Phillips said. “We have to get our kids thinking about the three things we want them to do – win in the classroom, win in the community and win on the field. “We have to eat, sleep and breathe Operation Win. We have to ingrain it in our kids’ minds.” While keeping the bedrock principles of hard work, personal responsibility and honest communication in place, Phillips has numerous changes and accomplishments during the first few months of Operation Win: • A strong finish to recruiting as several well-regarded prospects committed to the Wildcats in the 48 hours leading up to the signing day in February; • The addition of Ray “Rock” Oliver, a highly respected coach from the Cincinnati Bengals, to lead the strength and conditioning workouts. The players have responded favorably to the challenges brought by Oliver and his staff. • Pushing the tempo of spring practice with the goal of improving the team’s practice speed and intensity. • The team compiled a composite 2.66 grade-point average in the spring, up from 2.35 last fall. • A strong start to the 2011 recruiting campaign. PHILLIPS MAKES HISTORY IN DEBUT SEASON With wins over Louisville, Western Kentucky and Akron, Joker Phillips became the first UK head coach to start 3-0 in his debut season since the legendary Paul “Bear” Bryant went 3-0 in his first season with Kentucky in 1946. Now with six victories on the season, Phillips has the most for any firstyear Kentucky coach since Blanton Collier in 1954. SEPTEMBER TO REMEMBER Kentucky opened the 2010 season at 3-0 for the third time in the last four seasons. The Wildcats also began 3-0 in 2007 and 2008. Since 2007, Kentucky is 13-2 in the month of September. IT’S CATS IN THE CLOSE ONES Much of Kentucky’s success in the last four seasons came in finishing close games. In fact, Kentucky is 17-14 in the last 31 games decided by 10 or fewer points, dating back to 2006. Below is a look at Kentucky’s recent success in close games: Oct. 28, 2006 Nov. 4, 2006 Nov. 18, 2006 at Mississippi State W Georgia W ULM W 34-31 (+3) 24-20 (+4) 42-40 (+2) Nov. 25, 2006 Dec. 29, 2006 Sept. 15, 2007 Oct. 13, 2007 Oct. 20, 2007 Nov. 10, 2007 Nov. 24, 2007 Dec. 31, 2007 Sept. 13, 2008 Oct. 4, 2008 Oct. 11, 2008 Oct. 18, 2008 Nov. 1, 2008 Nov. 8, 2008 Nov. 15, 2008 Jan. 2, 2009 Sept. 19, 2009 Oct. 10, 2009 Oct. 17, 2009 Oct. 31, 2009 Nov. 21, 2009 Nov. 28, 2009 Dec. 27, 2009 Sept. 4, 2010 Oct. 2, 2010 Oct. 9, 2010 Oct. 16, 2010 Oct. 30, 2010 at Tennessee Clemson Louisville LSU Florida Vanderbilt Tennessee Florida State Middle Tennessee Alabama South Carolina Arkansas Mississippi State Georgia Vanderbilt East Carolina Louisville South Carolina Auburn Mississippi State Georgia Tennessee Clemson Louisville Ole Miss Auburn South Carolina at Mississippi State CONTINUED SUCCESS IN L W W W L W L W W L L W W L L W W L W L W L L W L L W L 12-17 (-5) 28-20 (+8) 40-34 (+6) 43-37 (3OT) (+6) 37-45 (-8) 27-20 (+7) 50-52 (4OT) (-2) 35-28 (+7) 20-14 (+6) 14-17 (-3) 17-24 (-7) 21-20 (+1) 14-13 (+1) 38-42 (-4) 31-24 (-7) 25-19 (+6) 31-27 (+4) 28-26 (-2) 21-14 (+7) 31-24 (-7) 34-27 (+7) 30-24 (OT) (-6) 21-13 (-8) 23-16 (+7) 35-42 (-7) 34-37 (-3) 31-28 (+3) 24-17 (-7) 2009 Kentucky won seven games during the 2009 season and advanced to the Music City Bowl, continuing UK’s success in recent seasons. • UK has was won at least seven games in each of the last four seasons, the first time that has been accomplished in almost a century – since 1909-12. • UK has gone to four-straight bowl games for the first time in school history. • UK extended its school-record non-conference win streak to 18 games before a loss in the Music City Bowl. • UK notched three SEC road wins – at Auburn, Vanderbilt and Georgia – for the first time in 32 years, since 1977. • UK defeated Auburn for the first time in 43 years, since 1966. It was also UK’s first win at Auburn in nearly half a century, since 1961. • UK won at Georgia for the first time in 32 years, since 1977. • UK’s 42-0 win over Miami (Ohio) was its first shutout in 13 years. • UK had three come-from-behind wins in the fourth quarter (vs. Louisville, Auburn, Georgia), giving the Wildcats 12 such wins over the last four seasons. • For the third-straight year, Kentucky fans broke the school record for average attendance at 69,594 per game, with three crowds over the 70,000 mark. COACHING STAFF CHANGES After Joker Phillips was named head coach, there were four changes on the Kentucky coaching staff. Tee Martin inherited Phillips’ former slot as wide receivers coach. Martin, a former quarterback in the NFL and CFL, came to UK from New Mexico. He has extensive recruiting ties in Georgia, particularly in the Atlanta area, along with his native Alabama and throughout the South. Lexington native Mike Summers was brought in to coach the offensive line. A veteran collegiate coach who also has experience in the NFL, Summers’ lines have been the power plants for dynamic offenses at several schools, most recently at Arkansas. David Turner, who was at Kentucky in 1993-94, returned to coach the Wildcat defensive line. He has been at four Southeastern Conference schools, Alabama, Vanderbilt, Mississippi State and UK. Former UK player and assistant coach Greg Nord has returned to his alma mater as special teams coordinator and tight ends coach. Nord coached the running backs under Jerry Claiborne from 1982-89. KentucKy in overtime Kentucky has a 2-4 record in overtime games. Here are the results: • Oct. 4, 1997: Kentucky 40, Alabama 34 (home, 1 OT) • Sept. 2, 2000: Louisville 40, Kentucky 34 (away, 1 OT) • Nov. 1, 2003: Arkansas 71, Kentucky 63 (home, NCAA record 7 OT) • Oct. 13, 2007: Kentucky 43, LSU 37 (home, 3 OT) • Nov. 24, 2007: Tennessee 52, Kentucky 50 (home, 4 OT) • Nov. 28, 2009: Tennessee 30, Kentucky 24 (home, 1 OT) There was also one change among the graduate assistant coaches, as former Wildcat wide receiver Tommy Cook returned to his alma mater and will be the GA for the defensive staff. IT’S A WILDCAT STATE Kentucky is often referred to as a “basketball state,” given the fact that UK arguably is the greatest men’s basketball program in collegiate history. However, we like to think of Kentucky as a “Wildcat state” because of the tremendous overall support for UK athletics. In 2009-10, Kentucky was one of only five schools to rank in the nation’s top 25 in attendance for football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball. In addition, Kentucky has ranked in the nation’s top 35 in football attendance every year since Commonwealth Stadium was expanded in 1999. On game day, Commonwealth Stadium usually becomes the third-largest city in Kentucky. And, over the years, one would be hard-pressed to find a school with the ups-and-downs of Kentucky football, yet has the solid bedrock of support enjoyed by the Wildcat gridders. For example, contrast Kentucky with other institutions from so-called “basketball states.” Kentucky, North Carolina, Kansas, Duke, and Indiana rank 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 10th (respectively) in all-time college basketball victories. Here is the average attendance for those schools in the 2009 football season: School Kentucky North Carolina Kansas Indiana Duke 2009 average attendances 69,594 56,607 50,581 41,833 26,314 Kentucky a basketball state? Wildcat state.

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 (2006- 07) 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 • “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 care so much about Kentucky football.” – All-SEC tight end Jacob Tamme, now with the Indianapolis Colts • “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 like that.” – 2009 All-SEC defensive tackle Corey Peters • “Cats are smart to name Phillips future coach” – Louisville Courier- Journal 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 2010 GAMe revieWs 1 KentucKy 23, LouisviLLe 16 Sept. 4, 2010 Kentucky used three spectacular touchdown drives in the first half, jumping on in-state rival Louisville 20-3 under first-year head coach Joker Phillips, then held on to defeat the Cardinals 23-16 in the first game of the newly renovated Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium. The Wildcats received the opening kickoff and wasted no time getting on the board, scoring on a twoplay 70-yard drive. La’Rod King caught a 38-yard pass on the first play and Derrick Locke blazed 32 yards for the touchdown, giving UK a 6-0 lead. Later in the first quarter, senior quarterback Mike Hartline led a 10-play, 92-yard drive capped by Locke’s second touchdown run of the game, this one from oneyard out, to give UK a 13-0 lead. Louisville got on the board in the second quarter with a field goal. UK responded when wide receiver Randall Cobb lined up as the quarterback in the “WildCobb” formation and rushed 51 yards untouched down the sideline to give the Cats their biggest lead of the day at 20-3. Louisville’s defense held tough in the second half, allowing three points to the Wildcats when Tydlacka nailed a 41-yard field goal in UK’s opening drive of the second half. The Cardinals answered quickly to the Wildcats’ field goal when Bilal Powell rushed 80 yards to score the Cardinals’ lone touchdown on the day and cut the UK lead to 10. Louisville’s next two possessions ended in turnovers as junior college transfer Mychal Bailey gathered an interception and Louisville native Ridge Wilson recovered a fumble. In the fourth quarter, Louisville marched 71 yards down the field, converting several third- and fourth-down conversions to tack on a 27-yard field goal from Philpott and get the game within 23-16. However, the Wildcats took the kickoff with 3:16 to play and tallied three first downs to run out the clock. The victory was the fourth in a row for the Wildcats over the Cardinals as Hartline became the first starting quarterback to go 3-0 in Governor’s Cup history.

WKU actually got on the board first and started the scoring a minute and 13 seconds into the game, getting a 59-yard rushing touchdown from junior tailback Bobby Rainey. However, the Hilltoppers did not score again until 1:15 left in the half as Kentucky posted 35 consecutive points to take a commanding lead in the game. The UK scoring surge started when Hartline drove the Cats down the field, setting up a two-yard touchdown pass to senior wide receiver Chris Matthews. Kentucky scored again at the end of the first quarter after walk-on defensive tackle Luke McDermott made his first career interception deep in WKU territory. Two plays later, Hartline dived into the endzone on a quarterback sweep to give UK a lead it would not relinquish. Kentucky scored four more touchdowns in the second quarter, starting with a 50yard punt return for a touchdown by Cobb. Senior tailback Derrick Locke poked the ball in the endzone from one-yard out for his third rushing touchdown of the season and senior fullback/tailback Moncell hauled in a 15-yard scoring pass from Cobb. UK ended the half when Hartline completed a four-yard pass in the corner of the endzone to sophomore La’Rod King to give UK a 42-14 lead at halftime. It was the most points UK had scored in the first half of a game since tallying 56 vs. North Dakota in 1950. The Wildcats scored three times in the second half, getting a 35-yard touchdown reception from Cobb late in the third quarter. Seeing his first collegiate action, freshman tailback Raymond Sanders scored two rushing touchdowns in the final seven minutes of the game to give UK the 63-28 victory. Hartline did an excellent job leading the offense and completed 16 of 20 passes for 213 yards and three TDs while adding the rushing touchdown. Cobb totaled 207 yards and three TDs in rushing, receiving, passing and kick returns. Rainey also had an outstanding game for WKU with 184 rushing yards and two touchdowns. scorinG suMMAry WKU 7 7 Kentucky 14 28 7 7 7 14 - 28 63 WKU – Rainey 59 run (Tinius kick) … 13:47 1st qtr.

Leading 6-3 midway through the second quarter, thanks to a pair of Craig McIntosh field goals, the Kentucky offense got hot and posted touchdowns on six consecutive possessions. Hartline threw 13-yard TD passes to wide receivers Randall Cobb and Chris Matthews to give the Cats a 20-3 advantage at halftime. Cobb’s TD was the 28th of his career, moving him into second place on the UK career touchdown list. Locke went to work after intermission, scoring on runs of five and 56 yards. In addition to his career-high single-game effort, Locke also became the seventh Wildcat in school history to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a career. UK completed the scoring when freshman tailback Raymond Sanders ran for a 28yard touchdown and sophomore tailback CoShik Williams tallied his first collegiate TD from eight yards out. Meanwhile, the Kentucky defense limited Akron to 79 total yards in the first three quarters before substituting liberally in the final quarter. The Wildcats posted nine tackles for loss, including five quarterback sacks. Linebacker Danny Trevathan led the defense with eight tackles, including one TFL. Ten different Cats had a primary or assisted tackle for loss. When the game clock wound down, Kentucky fans could leave Commonwealth Stadium with their Wildcats victorious and the Joker Phillips era off to a 3-0 start. It’s the best start for a UK head coach in his inaugural season since 1946 when legendary Paul “Bear” Bryant did the same. scorinG suMMAry Akron 0 3 Kentucky 3 17 0 20 7 7 - 10 47 UK – McIntosh 32 FG … 12:04 1st qtr.

Florida freshman quarterback Trey Burton began his six-touchdown career night with an 11-yard touchdown run from behind center. On the Gators’ next possession, Burton switched the tables and caught an 11-yard touchdown pass from UF starting quarterback John Brantley. In the second quarter, the Gators’ Jeremy Brown ended a Kentucky drive with a 52-yard interception return for a touchdown. The Cats responded with a drive deep into Florida territory. It was there that Kentucky pulled off a fake field goal attempt, in which junior Randall Cobb, who was the holder for the kick, threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to a wideopen Matthews. The touchdown pass capped the scoring in the first half and made the score 21-7. After Florida’s Burton rushed 10 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter, the Cats’ Matt Roark blocked the Gators’ point-after attempt to make the score 27-7. Just over midway through the third quarter, Kentucky senior quarterback Mike Hartline threw a gorgeous 27-yard touchdown pass to Matthews to bring the Cats within 13 points. Hartline finished the game completing 21-of-39 passes for 242 yards and a touchdown. Burton and the Gators responded, however, with a nine-yard touchdown rush from the speedy freshman. Burton continued his record-setting play in the fourth quarter with two more touchdowns. The first came on a three-yard run, the second on a seven-yard run. Burton’s six touchdowns were a single-game record for the Florida program. scorinG suMMAry Kentucky 0 7 Florida 14 7 7 13 0 14 - 14 48 UF - Burton 11 run (Sturgis kick) ... 11:09 1st qtr.

UK got on the board first with an eight-play, 60yard drive with Locke accounting for all 60 yards for the Cats, including a seven-yard touchdown run on fourth-and-one. Following a fumble on the UK 11yard line, Ole Miss used three plays to get into the end zone and tie the game at seven. UK responded with a 12-play drive, spanning 80 yards, in which senior quarterback Mike Hartline completed three third-down passes. The drive was capped by a 15-yard touchdown pass from Hartline to Cobb. Ole Miss took advantage of a pair of UK turnovers to notch touchdowns and pull ahead 21-14. Sophomore kicker Craig McIntosh pulled the Cats within four at the end of the half with a career-long 50-yard field goal. Following an Ole Miss touchdown to begin the second half, the Cats responded with an 11-play drive capped by a McIntosh 42-yard field goal to bring the Cats within eight. The Rebels then scored a pair of touchdowns for a 42-20 lead early in the fourth quarter. The Cats rallied, beginning with a 41-yard pass from Hartline to Cobb to the Ole Miss three-yard line. Locke ran it in two plays later. Cobb then made a spectacular catch on the Cats’ two-point conversion attempt to bring UK within 14. UK scored again with 1:46 left on the clock on a 13-yard touchdown catch from senior wide receiver Chris Matthews. UK’s on-side kick attempt was a valiant one, but just barely slipped through Kentucky’s hands and went out of bounds to give Ole Miss the ball and the win. Hartline threw for a career-best 300 yards, with Cobb and Locke each getting a career-high 108 receiving yards.

Cobb opened the game with a 36-yard kickoff return into Auburn territory and finished the first possession with a two-yard touchdown run. The wide receiver/quarterback, operating from the “WildCobb” formation for parts of the game, added a six-yard touchdown pass to freshman tight end Jordan Aumiller, a 16yard TD catch from Mike Hartline and a one-yard scoring run. In the process, Cobb tied the Kentucky career record for most touchdowns in a career with 32. He also was the first player since Aaron Boyd in 2003 to run for a touchdown, catch a touchdown pass and throw a TD pass in the same game. Cobb rang up 207 total yards during the game. Hartline had a sparkling performance as well, completing 23 of 28 passes for 220 yards and one touchdown. Auburn also had an outstanding effort from its quarterback Cameron Newton, who had 408 yards total offense, throwing for 210 yards while rushing for 198 yards and four touchdowns. Newton’s four TD runs staked the visitors to a 31-17 halftime lead. Kentucky’s defense stiffened in the second half. Safety Winston Guy stopped one possession with an interception and linebacker Danny Trevathan led the team with a career-high 17 tackles. With the spark from the defense, the Wildcats rallied to tie the game at 3434 on a 35-yard field goal by Craig McIntosh with 7:31 left in the game. After a muffed kickoff, Auburn took over on its own seven-yard line and methodically moved down the field. Newton drove his team 86 yards in 19 plays, converting three third-down situations, setting up Byrum for the game-winning field goal on the final play. scorinG suMMAry Auburn 14 17 Kentucky 7 10 0 14 6 3 - UK - Locke 7 run (McIntosh kick) ... 12:04 1st qtr.

The Gamecocks then scored again with 4:40 remaining in the first quarter when quarterback Stephen Garcia connected with sophomore wide receiver Alshon Jeffery. Following an interception by Wildcat safety Winston Guy, UK cut the Gamecocks’ lead in half early in the second quarter with a 10-yard strike from Hartline to La’Rod King. South Carolina responded with a seven-play, 77-yard drive, capped off by a 10yard touchdown run from Lattimore to stretch the lead to 21-7. Following a 26-yard field goal from Craig McIntosh, South Carolina scored its fourth touchdown of the first half with a 47-yard pass from Garcia to Lattimore down the left sideline. Behind by 18 at the break, the Cats didn’t fold. Kentucky got back in the game in the third quarter on a magnificent 14-play, 95-yard drive, finished by a five-yard pass from Hartline to King, his second touchdown of the game. In the fourth quarter, the Cats then scored again to pull within 28-23 when Hartline threw a 38-yard touchdown pass to Matthews down the left sideline. UK took over on its own 32-yard line with 7:31 to play and Hartline methodically moved the team downfield.

Following a Kentucky fumble on its own 26-yard line, Georgia drove down to the three-yard line where sophomore running back Washaun Ealey ran in the first of his school-record five rushing touchdowns. UK responded with a 16-play drive spanning 56 yards to set up a 41-yard field goal from sophomore kicker Craig McIntosh. The 7-3 score didn’t stay on the board long as Georgia’s Brandon Boykin returned the ensuing kickoff 100 yards for the Bulldogs’ second touchdown of the game. A pair of two-yard touchdown runs from Ealey made the score 28-3 in favor of Georgia before Hartline threw the first of two touchdown passes to sophomore wideout La’Rod King. The first was a 35-yard pass to make the score 28-10 at halftime. Georgia came out of the break strong with a seven-play, 70-yard drive capped off by a two-yard touchdown by Ealey. The extra point attempt was missed. King caught his second touchdown pass of the game in the final seconds of the third quarter to make the score 34-17. Georgia responded with a scoring drive, including a one-yard touchdown run by Ealey. Kentucky senior wide receiver Chris Matthews followed that up with a nice catch-and-run down the left sideline for 39 yards and a touchdown. The Wildcats were successful in their two-point conversion attempt as Randall Cobb threw to Matt Roark. Georgia tacked on a 30-yard field goal and Kentucky drove 59 yards on six plays, capped off by a nine-yard run from freshman running back Raymond Sanders, to give the game its final score of 44-31. Sanders finished with a career-high 16 rushes for 79 yards, and a career-high seven receptions for a career-high 77 yards receiving. scorinG suMMAry Georgia 14 14 Kentucky 3 7 6 7 10 14 - 44 31 GA - Ealey 3 run (Walsh kick) ... 11:57 1st qtr.

Mississippi State scored the game’s opening 10 points thanks to a 33-yard field goal from Derek DePasquale and a 54-yard touchdown run from Vick Ballard. Kentucky got on the board with 2:39 remaining in the first quarter when senior quarterback Mike Hartline connected with Randall Cobb on a 48-yard pass down the middle for a touchdown. The Bulldogs scored with 2:39 left in the second quarter on a 21-yard pass from Chris Relf to Arceto Clark. The Cats pulled within seven just before the half, though, as Craig McIntosh hit a 43-yard field goal as time expired. The Cats evened the score late in the third quarter when Hartline hit senior fullback Moncell Allen on a bootleg to the right. It was a two-yard reception for Allen, his third career receiving touchdown and second of the season. MSU drove 63 yards for the game-winning touchdown, with Relf running it in from four yards out with 10:28 remaining. The Wildcats got two more possessions but were unable to get the tying score. Hartline threw for 258 yards and two touchdowns. Cobb amassed a career-high 292 all-purpose yards, including career bests with 12 catches for 171 yards. Danny Trevathan paced the defense with 16 tackles, his fifth-consecutive game in double figures. scorinG suMMAry Kentucky 7 Mississippi State 10 3 7 7 0 0 7 - 17 24 MSU – DePasquale 33 FG ... 10:49 1st qtr.

Russell began the scoring for UK with a hard-nosed 25-yard run down the right sideline, fighting through numerous tackle attempts by CSU defenders. The touchdown run capped off a seven-play, 62-yard drive. Following a Buccaneers touchdown drive, Williams then broke free for 41 yards to get the lead back for UK, 14-7. The resilient Buccaneers responded with a 10-play 80-yard drive capped by a 17-yard touchdown reception from Deon Lee. Kentucky scored the last two touchdowns of the half though, a 53-yard touchdown reception by Chris Matthews and a three-yard touchdown run from Williams that was set up by a 47-yard pass from quarterback Mike Hartline to La’Rod King. Hartline threw for 272 yards and two touchdowns in the game, and became the fifth quarterback in UK history to throw for 5,000 yards in a career. The Cats’ offense continued to roll in the second half, racking up 21 points, including a 36-yard touchdown reception by Randall Cobb. Cobb has been responsible for at least one score via rushing, receiving or passing in every game this season. He finished with four catches for 101 yards, his second-consecutive 100-yard receiving game. The Kentucky defense had a season-high 10 tackles for loss. Safety Winston Guy led the way with a career-high 16 tackles. Linebacker Danny Trevathan notched 13 tackles – his sixth-consecutive game in double figures – along with a quarterback sack and tackle for loss. scorinG suMMAry Charleston Southern 7 Kentucky 14 7 14 7 7 0 14 - 21 49 UK – Russell 25 run (McIntosh kick) ... 7:04 1st qtr.

The win made UK bowl eligible as the Wildcats look to advance to their fifth consecutive bowl game. Vanderbilt opened the scoring with a field goal on its first possession of the game and the teams traded scores after that, with the Commodores leading at halftime 13-10 on the strength of a four-yard touchdown run by quarterback Larry Smith. Inspired by a fiery halftime speech by senior defensive tackle Ricky Lumpkin, Kentucky responded with 28 unanswered points to take control of the game. Cobb started the second half scoring for UK with an electrifying 73-yard scamper to give the Cats a 17-13 lead. Cobb’s impressive day was highlighted by breaking the UK single-season record for all-purpose yardage, previously held by Rafael Little at 1,982 yards. Cobb has 2,047 all-purpose yards for the year. On the next possession, Cobb appeared to be thrown for a big loss, only to break loose on a mercurial 52-yard run. Locke finished the six-play 80-yard drive with a one-yard touchdown run. Leading 24-13, senior quarterback Mike Hartline threw a perfect pass to senior wide receiver Chris Matthews for a 55-yard touchdown to get the crowd on its feet and give the Cats some breathing room. Hartline finished 15-of-23 for 232 yards and one touchdown. Matthews had five receptions for 97 yards and one touchdown. A senior from Hugo, Okla., Locke’s final carry at Commonwealth Stadium was a career-long 83-yard dash to put the Wildcats ahead 38-13. The Kentucky defense played an outstanding second half. Safety Winston Guy led the way with a career-high 18 tackles, including 2.5 for loss. Linebacker Danny Trevathan had 10 stops, his seventh-consecutive game in double figures. scoring summary Vanderbilt Kentucky 3 3 10 7 0 14 7 14 - 20 38 VU – Fowler 20 FG … 9:40 1st qtr.
