September 2nd: On this date....


...... in 2008, following a dominant performance against rival Louisville, Kentucky defensive tackle Myron Pryor was named SEC Defensive Player of the Week. Pryor, a Louisville native, played a role in two defensive touchdowns. He forced a fumble in the second quarter that Ashton Cobb picked up and ran 28 yards for a touchdown. The second came when the big man scooped up a fumble forced by linebacker Johnny Williams. Myron “310 lbs. Of Glory” Pryor raced 72 yards the other way for the games final touchdown. Final score: UK 27 - UL 2. It was the first time in 16 years a Wildcat had been named SEC Defensive Player of the Week. Dean Wells was the last. Jeremy Jarmon had been named SEC Lineman of the Week, but not overall Defensive Player of the Week.
