Mark Stoops kicked off his eleventh season in Lexington with a win. Like most opening games, there were sloppy mental mistakes, but Kentucky still defeated Ball State 44-14 at Kroger Field.
Brad White’s defense provided the spark by creating two first half turnovers that resulted in points. The Cats also picked up a special teams touchdown, overcompensating for a lackluster debut by Devin Leary during Liam Coen‘s return to the sideline.
The Kentucky quarterback completed 18-of-31 passes for 243 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Ray Davis was Kentucky’s leading rusher with 14 carries for 112 yards and two touchdowns, including a 30-yarder in the final minute that meant a little more for those who invested in UK -26.5. It was not a smooth offensive operation, but the Wildcats did enough to leave Kroger Field with a comfortable win. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's a LOADED Monday Aaron Torres Podcast! Aaron explains why he is coming around to the idea of a 12-team College Football Playoff, what he knows about Jalen Duren's potential reclassification and why Penny Hardaway might be pursuing an NBA coaching job. Here is a full rundown of today's show:
More details on the 12-team College Football Playoff proposal: Last week Aaron discussed the proposed 12-team College Football Playoff - but late last week, we got more details, and Aaron explains why the idea is growing on him (2:30). He gives five reasons why 12 might be the right number from better regular season games, to fewer opt outs and more teams and fans invested later in the season. He also shares a few concerns about the 12-team playoff as well and still wonders if eight teams is the right number for an expanded playoff.
Is Jalen Duren reclassifying? Is Penny Hardaway headed to the NBA?: Next, Aaron hits on two major topics from the college hoops weekend. On last episode Aaron shared his impressions of the No. 1 high school player in America Jalen Duren and briefly talked about the potential he reclassifies (26:00). This weekend those reports picked up steam, and Aaron hits the topic from all angles. What are the chances Duren does reclassify and if so, what schools make the most sense? Finally he discusses a report from Adrian Wojnarowski (aka "Woj") that Penny Hardaway may be considering NBA jobs. Aaron tells you some intel he's heard - and explains why it's more likely than many believe (48:00).
