BTI's Rants and Ramblings: Can UK Break Any Conference Scoring Margin Marks?

by:Bryan1311/11/14
Let's be honest, Kentucky might not win all 40 games this year, but there are going to be some games where they absolutely hammer opponents.  And that will likely include several SEC teams.  But does UK have any chance to put RECORD beatings on it's SEC opponents.  Below are the margin of victory record for UK with the 11 SEC members (Mizzou and A&M not really in the league long enough), including overall, on the road, and in the modern era of the league.  Look through these and then decide which one(s) you might think would be easiest for Kentucky to break this year.
