FCS UT-Chattanooga has no chance, Kentucky rolls 63-14.

About the only thing I can say about the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga is they have a mascot I’ve never heard of, and really don’t know what it is. They’re the Mocs, it appears to be some kind of bird chicken hybrid.

No disrespect meant, but come on if you’re a Kentucky fan you’ll love this game.

Kentucky has only scored over 60 points once in the Mark Stoops era, back in 2016 against New Mexico State. I was actually at that game, it was arguably Stephen Johnson’s best game at Kentucky as he threw for over 300 yards and Kentucky racked up almost 700 total yards.

Back to the present day, I look for a very similar outcome to occur. Chattanooga being an FCS opponent in a lower division will be outmatched at every position on the field. If Kentucky has anything but a record day it’s a disappointment.

The Mocs managed to play one game last year a 13-10 loss to Western Kentucky.

Kentucky will control the game through its entirety and will score at will even when trying to play conservatively. The level of play between a school at a power five program and an FCS school is a monumental difference. Kentucky ends up hanging 63 on the Mocs in a record day for the program on the way to a 3-0 start.
