  Chris Rodriguez Jr. rushed for three touchdowns, Terry Wilson and A.J. Rose each rushed for one, and Kentucky rolled South Carolina 41-18 Saturday night in the regular season finale for both schools. Looking to halt a two-game slide and remain in consideration for the postseason, the Wildcats (4-6, 4-6 Southeastern Conference) scored on five of their first seven possessions to lead 27-3 at halftime. Their highest first-half output this season was aided by 10 points off two of their three takeaways, including two fumble recoveries by Jordan Wright.

Rodriguez returned from a two-game absence to rush for first-half TDs of 1 and 2 yards around Rose's 8-yard score before sealing the rout with a 79-yard burst down the left side with 4:56 remaining. Wilson added a 1-yard TD run early in the third quarter as the Wildcats outgained the Gamecocks (2-8, 2-8) 492-404. Wilson, the senior quarterback, finished 17 of 26 passing for 201 yards and rushed for 46 to break 1,000 career. Rodriguez had 139 yards on 14 carries and Rose 101 on 14 carries as Kentucky dealt South Carolina its sixth consecutive loss. - Kentucky/AP College Football

  12/02/20 - *Kelvin Joseph, rSo/2021, Kentucky, 6-0, 197 (DS#6 CB) + More +

  The Kentucky football team did not quite make it to the end of the season without a player opting out. Third-year sophomore cornerback Kelvin Joseph tweeted Monday evening he is opting out of the rest of UK's season to prepare for the NFL draft. "Growing up in North Baton Rouge, not many have had the opportunity that I have to play in the NFL," Joseph tweeted. "My family struggled but still managed to raise a successful young Black man. I am taking this opportunity to focus on preparing for the NFL draft." A former top-50 recruit, Joseph transferred to Kentucky from LSU prior to the 2019 season. He sat out last season per NCAA transfer rules then made his debut as Kentucky's starting cornerback this fall.

Joseph leads Kentucky's team with four interceptions but has also drawn significant criticism for several careless penalties, including a personal foul for Saturday's game at Florida when he shoved a Florida player after the play was finished. Earlier Monday, UK coach Mark Stoops said Joseph was still working to understand the culture of Kentucky's program. "Kelvin is a competitor," Stoops said. "He understands once you talk to him and get him on the side and talk to him. He's very competitive in games but some of it is absolutely unacceptable. You know, like the one play on Saturday, there's just no excuses. You can't have it, it's totally unacceptable, and it will be addressed." - Courier Journal

  12/02/20 - *Kelvin Joseph, rSo/2021, Kentucky, 6-0, 197 (DS#6 CB) + More +

  Joseph started UK's previous nine games and was listed as a No. 1 cornerback ahead of the Wildcats' game against South Carolina this week. The former four-star recruit sat out the entirety of last season due to NCAA transfer rules; he played in 11 games as a true freshman at LSU during the 2018 season. The news broke during head coach Mark Stoops' weekly radio show. Host Tom Leach asked Stoops about the decision on the air.

"He came in and visited with me after my press conference today," Stoops said. "Kelvin, he's a good young man and I appreciate what he did for us. He just didn't, I don't know how to phrase it. He didn't really want to opt out but he didn't want to play this week...I can't just have him out there standing around saying, 'I'm not playing in this game.' That's not how we're going to do this at Kentucky." Stoops said that he looks forward to aiding Joseph however he can throughout the pre-draft process. "He's got a lot of talent but he's also young and has got a lot of work to do," Stoops said. "… He doesn't have a lot of tape." - Herald Leader

  12/01/20 - J.J. Weaver, rSr/2025, Kentucky, 6-5, 251 (DS#28 DE) + More +

  Louisville native J.J. Weaver's season is finished for Kentucky football after tearing his ACL in his first career start at Florida. Weaver's mother, Stacey Sherrell, confirmed the news in a Facebook post, noting surgery will be scheduled for later in the week. The injury came just days after Weaver had been elevated to the starting spot at Kentucky's "Jack" linebacker position. He recorded six tackles in Saturday's loss. On the season, Weaver has totaled 33 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss and one-half sack.

"I'm excited about his future, excited to watch him play this week, excited to see what he can do in there early in the game," defensive coordinator Brad White said before the game. "We're going to see. It's going to be a big game in a big environment. I think he can handle it. "What he's doing right now is he's playing strong, he's playing violent. He's not overthinking. He's letting his natural ability shine. Again, it's not perfect technique-wise. There are things we're still cleaning up, even assignment-wise, but every week has been better. He looks more and more comfortable every time he steps on the field." Rehabilitation for a torn ACL can take up to a year, putting Weaver's status for the 2021 season in jeopardy. - Courier Journal

  Temple running back Re'Mahn Davis, a 2019 Freshman All-American, will transfer to Vanderbilt. Davis, a 5-foot-9, 210-pounder, announced his decision Wednesday on Instagram. He rushed for 323 yards and one touchdown in four games this season at Temple before entering the NCAA transfer portal. He had started the season as a Preseason All-American Athletic Conference selection. - The Tennessean

  Georgia Tech defensive lineman Justice Dingle entered his name into the transfer portal Tuesday, Dingle's father confirmed to the AJC. Dingle, a sophomore from Bowling Green, Ky., had seen minimal playing time in four games this season. Dingle was recruited to Tech as a linebacker and was rated among the top signees in the Yellow Jackets' 2018 class. After redshirting in 2018, he was moved to defensive end in 2019, when he started one game, played in 11 and led the team with three fumble recoveries along with six tackles. He played both end and tackle this season and was credited with one tackle. - Atlanta Journal Constitution

  11/22/20 - *Dare Rosenthal, rJr/2022, Kentucky, 6-7, 290 (DS#14 OT) + More +

  The starting left tackle for the season opener, Rosenthal didn't play or appear on the sideline when LSU faced South Carolina on Oct. 24. Sophomore Cam Wire started in his place the last two games. "He's gotten out of the groove," junior left guard Ed Ingram said, "so the biggest thing is probably going to be working pass sets, working run blocks and technical stuff." Orgeron believes Rosenthal's return can help an offensive line that struggled in LSU's last game.

On the road against Auburn, the group allowed four sacks, and LSU averaged 1.2 yards per carry as the program suffered its worst loss since 1996. Rosenthal practiced Tuesday with the second-team offensive line, returning as LSU prepares to face Arkansas this Saturday, the Tigers' first game in three weeks. Orgeron said LSU will decide Friday who starts. In the past, Orgeron has projected Rosenthal, who's 6-foot-7 and 327 pounds, as a potential first-round NFL draft pick. "We're not going to put him in if he's not in shape," Orgeron said, "but he looked like he came back in pretty good shape." - Baton Rouge Advocate

  11/21/20 - *Dare Rosenthal, rJr/2022, Kentucky, 6-7, 290 (DS#14 OT) + More +

  Coach Ed Orgeron said LSU might soon reinstate suspended left tackle Dare Rosenthal, who started two games this season. "I don't know yet," Orgeron said Monday. "That's not a definite yet. I think that would help us. I should know something more today or tomorrow if he can be reinstated to the team." LSU indefinitely suspended Rosenthal in mid-October. A week after starting against Missouri, Rosenthal didn't play or appear on the sideline while LSU faced South Carolina. Rosenthal also missed LSU's game against Vanderbilt because of an injury. Sophomore Cam Wire started three games in his place.

Earlier this year, Rosenthal left school during the spring semester and did not participate in the brief spring practice session. He returned this summer, and Orgeron said at the time on 104.5 WNXX-FM Rosenthal had worked through his "off the field problems." In the past, Orgeron has praised Rosenthal, who's 6-foot-7 and 327 pounds, as a potential first-round NFL draft pick. This summer, offensive line coach James Cregg told LSU's in-house radio show he believed Rosenthal "will be a big factor for us." - Baton Rouge Advocate
