No. 24 Kentucky football suffered a second consecutive defeat on Saturday, losing 38-21 against Missouri at Kroger Field.

The win was the first for Missouri over Kentucky since 2020 and the first in Lexington since 2013.

The Wildcats entered the game on the back of a lopsided 51-13 loss against No. 1 Georgia in Athens. The result was the first defeat of the year for the Cats.

Missouri, on the other hand, entered the game on the back of a 49-39 loss against LSU that saw it drop out of the top 25. The result was also the first loss of the season for the Tigers as well.
