Kentucky had the upper hand in time of possession with 35:02 to the Dawgs' 24:58. That's a difference of 10:04, which is significant.
Kentucky ran a total of 73 offensive plays, including 45 rushing attempts. Georgia ran a total of only 54 offensive plays, including 30 rushing attempts.
Key, though... Georgia ran a total of 23 offensive plays in the 1st half. Kentucky ran 41 offensive plays in the first half. Enormous difference.
Both teams were almost dead-even in the second half with Georgia running 31 plays and Kentucky running 32. I'm counting the punts in those numbers (tallied totals from the play-by-play).
One key stat... Dawgs were only 5 of 13 on 3rd down conversions, 1 of 6 in the first half. Dawgs were 4 of 7 in the second half. Big improvement. Kentucky was 9 of 16.
Glaring stat, and maybe "the" key stat of the game (aside from the final score)... Kentucky had 23 first downs. Dawgs had 12.
Kentucky had 11 first downs in the first half (including one from a penalty). Dawgs had 3 first downs in the entire first half!
Kentucky had 12 first downs in the second half, and the Dawgs had 9 first downs in the second half. Major improvement.
Dawgs punted 6 times. Kentucky punted 4 times.
Only 1 turnover in the game... that being the sack/fumble of Kentucky QB Vandagriff, which led to a Dawg field goal.
With those first half stats, with the game being played at Lexington, at night, the Dawgs were behind only 6-3 at halftime. That cannot be ignored.
Then, we have the fact that the Dawgs' defense did not allow ANY touchdowns, holding Kentucky to 4 field goals. That is huge.
For the Dawgs' offense, it looks like a tale of two halves. Sump'n got done during halftime adjustments.
For the Dawgs' defense, it looks like they were bend but don't break, only allowing field goals all night. The sack/turnover turns out to be key, as we got 3 points off of it.... 3 significant points.
