Kentucky takes lead over Florida with incredible 76-yard blocked FG return
Published:
Football is a game of momentum, and Kentucky’s special teams delivered a huge play in third quarter to change the momentum against No. 10 Florida on Saturday night.
Leading 10-7 with just under 7 minutes to play in the third quarter, the Gators lined up for a field goal hoping to push their lead to 6.
The kick, however, was blocked by Joshua Paschal and recovered by Trevin Wallace, who returned the blocked kick 76 yards for a touchdown that put the Wildcats ahead for the first time in the game.

The only downside for Kentucky on the play was that the extra point attempt following the score was unsuccessful, leaving the Wildcats lead at 13-10 with just over 6 minutes to play in the third quarter.
