Ray Davis, Devin Leary and opportunistic defense help Kentucky blow out Ball State 44-14 in opener
Kentucky expected some adjustment with all those new faces. Ray Davis ran for two touchdowns while Devin Leary passed for one in their Wildcat debuts, and the defense made several big plays to rout Ball State 44-14 in the season opener for both teams on Saturday. Jalen Geiger returned the first 69 yards to make it 17-7, and Jordan Lovett’s recovery led to the second of Alex Raynor’s three field goals from 40-plus yards for a 13-point lead.
