No one would describe Kentucky’s 28-17 win over Eastern Kentucky as pretty, but if you missed the game live (or couldn’t figure out how to watch it), we have the video for you. Thanks to KyWildcatsTV, you can see all of the good plays and none of the bad, including all four touchdowns by Devin Leary, who finished 24-38 for 299 yards, four scores, and one interception.

Two of those tosses were to Tayvion Robinson, who had six catches for 136 yards. Barion Brown hauled him his own touchdown, a 13-yard reception in the corner of the end zone to put Kentucky up 21-10 in the third quarter. He also had a monster 36-yard punt return in the second quarter to set up Kentucky’s first touchdown.

After EKU scored to cut Kentucky’s lead to four, 21-17, big Ray Davis got his first receiving touchdown, a 24-yard catch-and-stretch to the pylon with 8:08 left. Davis now has three touchdowns as a Wildcat, two coming on the ground in the season opener vs. Ball State last week. At the end of the game, he was spotted on the sideline getting his wrist checked out, so something to keep an eye on.

We’re going to be harping on the mistakes all night, and likely, week, but for now, let’s be grateful the Cats have two in the win column and zero in the loss.
