September 9th: On this date...


... in 2002, Kentucky quarterback Jared Lorenzen was named SEC Player of the Week after his performance in the 77-17 drubbing of UTEP. The Pillsbury Throwboy threw for an astonishingly low 211 yards on 10-17 passes. Five touchdowns were also on the stat sheet for the hefty one. He led the Wildcats on touchdown drives on six of their first eight possessions, efficiently directing them to a near record-setting point total. It actually ended up being the second highest total in program history. The victory led Big Blue Nation to gobble up 2,500 tickets the following Monday, 1,500 more to their upcoming Commonwealth Stadium tilt vs. Indiana.
