..... in 2003, Kentucky’s all-everything wideout Derek Abney tied the NCAA record for most career kick returns for a touchdown in a 42-17 rout of Mississippi State. Abney’s 80-yard punt return in the third quarter was his eighth career kick return for a touchdown, tying Cliff Branch (1970-71 Colorado) and Johnny Rodgers (1970-72 Nebraska). Kentucky came back from a 17-0 first half deficit and scored 42 unanswered points for the final tally. Abney’s punt return put the Cats up 21-17, and they never looked back. Jared Lorenzen also broke Tim Couch’s record for career touchdown passes (74) on a 53-yard play to Abney, giving him 75 for his career. J-Load finished 16-24 for 256 yards and the lone touchdown. Nice record-breaking day for the 4-4 Wildcats.
