Fans, media react to ’embarrassing’ start by Kentucky against Georgia

Kentucky is off to a rough start against Georgia.

The Wildcats trail 34-7 heading into the half after heaping of hype heading into Week 6 against the Bulldogs. With Georgia struggling, many picked the Wildcats to make some noise and at the very least play the Bulldogs close in Athens.

Now, this thing is far from over, but Georgia has pretty much dominated so far. The Bulldogs passing attack has torn Kentucky’s secondary apart.

On the other side of things, Kentucky has struggled to get much of anything going on offense, with QB Devin Leary missing some throws and Georgia’s run defense stuffing the Wildcats at the L.O.S. So far, the Bulldogs have put up 384 total yards compared to Kentucky’s 127.

Things is, the few times Kentucky has been able to move the ball some, a silly penalty has ruined it. the Wildcats have already had a couple drives stalled due to this.

Plenty of fans across the college football landscape took to social media to comment on the Wildcats Saturday. Here are some of the best comments we found:

I can handle Kentucky losing to Georgia because Georgia is simply better. And that’s probably the case.

I can’t handle Kentucky losing to Georgia in large part because they’re making stupid mistakes. Act like you’ve been there before. Embarrassing.

Every year we do this with Kentucky. Every single year.

It’s the same stuff as it always is. Kentucky doing everything possible to beat themselves. And doing it against one of the nation’s best teams.

Embarrassing for the program to have this performance on this stage

In past years, Georgia was still the better team but Kentucky earned respect in defeat.

This is the opposite

Georgia just toying with Kentucky …. I can’t think of a more embarrassing performance during the Stoops era. At this point, just hope they stay healthy and bounce back next week. This game is over

Absolutely embarrassing performance from Kentucky.

Zero composure being displayed. ZERO.

We do not deserve to share this field with Georgia. Embarrassing effort. Disgusting behavior. Team is awful.

Primetime ESPN. Chance to at least be respectable. We are embarrassing this program. People’s preconceived notions about Kentucky Football are being confirmed.
