November 11th: On this date...


... in 2006, Kentucky became bowl eligible (in what would become the first of three straight bowl-eligible seasons) by beating Vandy 38-26 in Lexington. Andre Woodson threw for 450 yards and four touchdowns to lead the way at quarterback. Rafael Little had a career game catching 8 passes for 114 yards and rushing for another 132 yards and a touchdown. Keenan Burton led the wideouts with 11 receptions for 171 yards and two touchdowns, in what would become a statistical freak show for the Blue and White. The win moved the Cats to 6-4 (4-3 in SEC) and guaranteed Big Blue Nation they would have at least a .500 record in the regular season and in conference, virtually guaranteeing them a bowl game. We would go on to play Clemson in the Music City Bowl in Nashville.
