Some read-em-weep stats from Florida’s 41-7 flogging of Kentucky on Saturday night:
- 1. Kentucky had just 179 total yards of offense, it’s lowest total since a ridiculously meager 100 yards at Auburn in 2004.
- 2. Kentucky was outgained by 316 yards (495-179), most since LSU outgained the Cats by 319 (546-227) in that 49-0 Baton Rouge beatdown in 2006.
- 3. Mike Hartline’s passer rating was 61.85, lowest by a UK quarterback attempting at least 20 passes in a game since Andre Woodson in that 2006 LSU game. Saturday, Hartline commpleted 13 of 28 passes for just 85 yards, with one touchdown and two interceptions. At LSU, Woodson completed 14 of 37 passes for 151 yards with an interception.
