LEXINGTON, Ky. — Devin Leary passed for four touchdowns, including two to Tayvion Robinson, as Kentucky scored four consecutive TDs to rally past and hold off Eastern Kentucky 28-17 on Saturday. The Wildcats entered as heavy favorites but spent much of an overcast day having to overcome their FCS neighbor. The Wildcats needed almost the entire first half just getting started offensively and succeeded just before halftime as Leary found Robinson for the first TD and then again in the third quarter. Leary completed 24 of 38 passes for 299 yards. Parker McKinney completed 19 of 29 for 219 yards to surpass 10,000 career yards.
