Live scores, highlights and updates from the Kentucky vs. Florida football game

Through 3 Quarters

Down three at the end of last quarter, the Kentucky Wildcats have now snagged the lead. It's still tight after three quarters, with UK leading 13-10 over the Florida Gators. So far, this is quite different from their previous head-to-head, which was decided by 24 points.

The Wildcats might have shot themselves in the foot by missing a PAT kick in the third quarter. We'll see if that point ends up being a decisive factor in the final outcome.

What to Know

The Florida Gators have enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they must head out on the road. Florida and the Kentucky Wildcats will face off in an SEC battle at 6 p.m. ET Saturday at Kroger Field. These two teams come into the game bolstered by wins in their previous games.

The Gators' matchup against the Tennessee Volunteers last week was close at halftime, but Florida turned on the heat in the second half with 21 points. Florida made easy work of Tennessee and carried off a 38-14 win. QB Emory Jones had a stellar game for Florida as he passed for two TDs and 209 yards on 27 attempts in addition to picking up 144 yards on the ground. That nimble footwork stands out as the first time Jones has hit the 100-yard rushing mark this season.

Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, UK beat the South Carolina Gamecocks 16-10 last week. Kentucky's RB Chris Rodriguez Jr. was one of the most active players for the team, picking up 144 yards on the ground on 26 carries. Rodriguez Jr. hadn't helped his team much against the Chattanooga Mocs two weeks ago, so this was a nice turnaround for him.

Most of the squad's points came courtesy of special teams, which contributed ten. K Matt Ruffolo delivered a perfect 3-for-3 game.

The Gators are the favorite in this one, with an expected 7.5-point margin of victory. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a two-game streak of ATS wins.

Florida is now 3-1 while UK sits at 4-0. A pair of numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: Florida is stumbling into the contest with the 215th most thrown interceptions in the nation, having thrown five on the season. UK is completely their equal: they are 215th worst in the nation in thrown interceptions, having thrown five on the season. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
