Kentucky’s 51-13 loss to Georgia was frustrating and demoralizing on many levels; however, the lasting impact of it could be even worse.
Five Wildcats had to leave tonight’s game due to injury, which is not exactly ideal as the Cats stare down the second half of the schedule.
Barion Brown was dealing with a hamstring issue prior to the game but played the first two quarters, totaling one reception for seven yards on four targets. After halftime, he was listed as questionable to return and did not. In other news at wide receiver, Tayvion Robinson, who was also dealing with an injury prior to the game, played, finishing with two catches for nine yards.
Safety Jalen Geiger injured his elbow in the second quarter and was ruled out. He was spotted on the sideline in a sling. In the second half, we got more bad news. Defensive lineman Keeshawn Silver AND linebacker Trevin Wallace both suffered shoulder injuries. Silver was ruled out. Wallace, Kentucky’s second-leading tackler, was listed as questionable and did not return. As with Brown, I’m sure the lopsided score had something to do with that.
