... in 2006, Kentucky got arguably the first marquee victory in the Rich Brooks era with a 24-20 win over Georgia at Commonwealth Stadium. Tony Dixon’s three-yard run up the middle with one minute remaining gave the Cats the final margin. Trevard Lindley was named SEC Freshman of the Week after sealing the win with an interception (of Georgia quarterback Matthew Stafford) with under a minute left in the fourth quarter. He also had a career-high seven tackles and a pass break-up. Fans stormed the field and tore down the goal posts. The win ended a nine game losing streak to the Bulldogs, and was only Kentucky’s 11th since the series started in 1939. The win was UK’s fifth on the season, leaving them only one win from bowl eligibility.
