Three Years Ago
*Playing what has been their poorest game to date, the Kentucky Wildcat football team scrambled to tie the Cincinnati Bearcats 13-13 at Commonwealth Stadium.
Kentucky could not get its offense going the entire game. After two interceptions early in the game, coach Jerry Claiborne inserted backup quarterback Bill Ransdell, who did a good job. But his passing stats of 10 for 23 were deceiving, when you consider that time after time Wildcat receivers dropped cat-chable tosses.
The 'Cats got off to a bad start. On their first possession from their own one-yard line, tailback Lawrence "Choo Choo" Lee was pinned in the end zone for a safety. After a field goal, the Bearcats led 5-0 at the end of the first quarter.
In the second period, Randy Jenkins threw his second interception of the ballgame, which was returned 53 yards, giving Cincin-
nati a 13-0 advantage.
Enter Ransdell. The Elizabethtown native promptly marched UK 63 yards for its first score, cutting the margin to 13-7 at the half.
In the second half. Kentucky started a long offensive drive late in the third quarter. The drive was capped off in the final stanza with a three-yard TD plunge by George Adams. Unfortunately, kicker Chris Caudell missed the extra point attempt, and the scoring was over.
Adams led UK with 93 yards rushing, but had two fumbles on the day. Ransdell threw for 125 yards.
The 'Cats face Vanderbilt next week in Nashville.

the highlight film, as the two teams fumbled the ball 12 times and were whistled for 11 penalties. UK played a miserable first half, and trailed 7-6 at the break. On the second play of the second half, freshman tailback Pete Venable took a pitchout and raced 83 yards for the score. UK failed on the two-point conversion, but built on its lead minutes later when Larry Carter rambled 60 yards with a punt return to score. Chris Jones added the two-point conversion and UK led 20-7. Jones gained a career-high 134 yards on 21 carries, while quarterback Juan Portella was voted the Homecoming game MVP.

Thirty-One Years Ago
*17th-ranked Kentucky was stunned Saturday by Vanderbilt, which pleased its Homecoming fans with a 34-0 whipping of the 'Cats. It was UK's worst defeat since a wartime 60-19 shellacking at Alabama almost 10 years ago. About the only bright spot for Kentucky was backup quarterback Kenny Robinson, who came in and hit four of seven passes. Starting quarterback Bob Hardy was injured while playing defense.
*Hard-running Bobby Walker, a junior fullback from Middlesboro and UK's second leading rusher, will miss the final two games of the season with severe knee injury. The injury list for this week's Florida game has reached 15.
*Kentucky quarterback Bob Hardy has passed Dick Young of Georgia as the SEC's passing leader with 49 completions for 656 yards. The UK pass defense is seventh in the nation. If not for an 83-yard completion yielded against Mississippi State, it would be ranked second.
