August 14th: On this date...

...... in 2007, your University of Kentucky Wildcat starting quarterback Andre Woodson was named a preseason All-American by Ivan Maisel of ESPN.com. Woodson was coming off a stellar 2006 campaign where he completed 63 percent of his passes for 3515 yards and 31 touchdowns. But the most impressive stat heading into the 2007 season was his school-record (162), and soon to be collegiate record of consecutive pass attempts without an interception (325). That number shattered the previous mark of 271 by Fresno State's Trent Dilfer in 1993. Although Andre's professional career hasn't gone according to plan, he can lay his head down at night knowing he was a central character in resurrecting the University's football program. And for that, Big Blue Nation will forever be grateful.
