GAME BREAKDOWN
KEY MATCHUP: Kentucky’s run game against Georgia’s run defense. Kentucky boasts arguably the top running back in the SEC in junior Benny Snell Jr., who has rushed for over 900 yards and nine touchdowns. At 5-11 and 224 pounds, not only is Snell one of the best running backs in the league, he’s also one of the smartest with an uncanny ability to look for open holes .
DRAFT SLANT
–CB Deandre Baker was named a preseason All-American and is living up to his early billing. In six games, Baker has 26 tackles, leads Georgia in interceptions with two and tops the team in passes broken up with eighth.
ROSTER REPORT:
–OG Ben Cleveland (broken left fibula) did not play after traveling to Jacksonville, but he is practicing this week and could return.
–DE David Marshall still appears out after breaking a bone in his foot against Vanderbilt.
–NG DaQuan Hawkins-Muckle is doubtful after missing the past two games with an undisclosed injury, believed to be a concussion.
