Kentucky’s Hot Streak Rolls On At Oklahoma

Kentucky extended its historic winning streak to five games with a 21-13 victory over Oklahoma in Norman, becoming the first FBS team to win back-to-back one-point overtime contests. The Wildcats, led by head coach Will Stein—who now sits at 5-1 in his first season—overcame a sluggish offensive performance by relying on a dominant defense, securing their first win in the Sooners’ home stadium.

Kentucky’s opening drive set the tone, as a 67-yard march on their first possession, capped by a Kenny Minchey to Willie Rodriguez touchdown, gave them an early 7-0 lead. Oklahoma’s offense struggled to find consistency, with quarterback John Mateer’s team converting just 7 of 17 third-down attempts in the first half, while Kentucky’s defense forced turnovers, including a Jordan Castell interception in the end zone that preserved the Wildcats’ narrow advantage.

The game’s only scoring in the third quarter came from a 28-yard field goal by Tate Sandell, but Kentucky’s defense ultimately sealed the win with a late stand, keeping Oklahoma’s lead to a single score for the remainder of the contest.
