Social media reacts to Kentucky's win over South Alabama

It wasn't the best start to week for for the Kentucky Wildcats football team. They looked hung over from their win over Texas A&M last week, and neither the offense, nor the defense looked particularly good in the first quarter.

The Kentucky run game got going, however, highlighted by a 75-yard touchdown run by Jason Patterson. For the game, the Wildcats rushed for 390 yards and 5 touchdowns. C.J. Baxter, Jason Patterson, and Javantae Barnes all ran for at least 100 yards and a score.

Kentucky pulled away in the second half as their talent advantage began to show. They finally began to generate some pressure, and the South Alabama defense looked tired. The Wildcats started to dominate, and won the game 45-17.

It wasn't pretty, and coach Will Stein seemed unhappy with the performance. It was still a win, however, and Big Blue Nation took to social media to talk about it. Here are some of the thoughts from fans after the victory.
