The Bulldogs have one of the best offenses in the country and have been able to score 40.5 points per game against their opponents. Quarterback Hutson Mason has 1,341 passing yards on the season with 11 touchdowns and just three interceptions. Freshman running back Nick Chubb has averaged six yards per carry and has 773 rushing yards with eight scores.

Last Saturday, Kentucky had a hard time moving the ball against Missouri's defense and ended up losing 20-10. They finished that game with only 260 total yards and they converted just two of their 16 third down chances.

Kentucky has one of its best defenses in years by only giving up 24.2 points per game in a very tough conference.
