Over the last decade the Kentucky<\/strong> football program won 57 games including two bowl games. However 32 of those wins came in the last four years. While the coaching staff would say otherwise all wins aren’t created equally. That’s where we come in as over the course of two parts we rank the best victories. Let’s get started with Kentucky’s best wins of the decade part one.<\/p>\n Kentucky 31- South Carolina 28- October 16, 2010<\/strong><\/p>\n South Carolina<\/strong> rolled into Lexington riding a 10 game winning streak against the Wildcats. In the first half it looked much like Spinal Tap they were going to 11. The Gamecocks were firing on all cylinders as Joker Phillips<\/a>\u2019<\/a><\/strong> Cats went in trailing 28-10 at the half.<\/p>\n However, the Kentucky defense came up big in the second half holding Stephen<\/a> Garcia<\/a> and the 10th ranked Gamecocks to only 103 yards. Touchdown passes from Mike Hartline<\/a> to La’Rod King<\/a> and Chris Matthews<\/a> cut the lead to 28-23 early in the fourth quarter. From there neither team could find the end zone.<\/p>\n However, with 1:15 remaining Randall Cobb<\/a> caught a 24 yard pass from Hartline to put the Cats in the lead. He followed that up with a two point conversion to cement the win. For the game the Wildcat quarterback threw for 349 yards and four touchdowns. With the victory Kentucky snapped a 10 game losing streak to South Carolina. In addition, they beat a Steve Spurrier<\/a>\u00a0coached team for the first time in 18 tries.<\/p>\n Kentucky 15 Missouri 14- October 27, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n The Wildcats mustered little offense against the Tigers and found themselves trailing 14-3 at the half. However led by Josh Allen<\/a>, the Kentucky defense held Drew Lock<\/a> and the powerful Missouri<\/strong> offense to eight straight three and outs in the second half.<\/p>\n With five minutes to go in the game Lynn Bowden <\/a>took a punt 67 yards to the house. However the Cats missed the try for two leaving the margin at five. Another punt backed Kentucky up to their own 19 yard line. Quarterback Terry Wilson<\/a> calmly led the Cats down the field to the 10 yard line.<\/p>\n On the game’s final play Wilson’s pass to Ahmad Wagner<\/a> fell incomplete. However Missouri was whistled for pass interference giving the Cats one more play. Wilson hit C.J. Conrad<\/a> for the score on the extra play giving Kentucky an improbable win. That win led to quite the celebration in the locker room.<\/p>\n .@UKCoachStoops<\/a> living his best life. <\/p>\n (via @UKFootball<\/a>) pic.twitter.com\/w7By4Idz7F<\/a><\/p>\n — SEC Network (@SECNetwork) October 28, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nBeating The “Ol’ Ball Coach” – Number 10<\/h4>\n
