The Florida Gators (1-1, 0-1) lost to the #20 Kentucky Wildcats (2-0, 1-0) at home on Saturday night.
Florida’s offense never got into a rhythm in the game as quarterback Anthony Richardson had an off night including a key interception that was returned for a touchdown.
The Gators’ defense had a good first half but much like last week, they struggled in the second half as the lack of depth up-front caught up to the team.
