The Kentucky Wildcats lost to the Texas Longhorns 31-14 on Saturday afternoon on the road. The Wildcats this season are 4-7 and will play their final game of the regular season against the Louisville Cardinals on Saturday at NOON ET, who are 7-4 on the season.
Brock Vandagriff completed 3-of-7 passes for 51 yards, one touchdown, and one interception against the Longhorns. He has not played well all season long.
Kentucky Wildcats Are Benching Junior Quarterback Brock Vandagriff For Freshman Cutter Boley On Saturday
On Monday, it was announced by head coach Mark Stoops that he will be benching Vandagriff for Boley. This feels like a move that was long overdue for the Wildcats. This season, Brock Vandagriff has completed 57.3% of his passes for 1,593 yards, 10 touchdowns, and eight interceptions. He has not played well at all this season for Kentucky.
Cutter Boley has completed 52.8% of his passes for 290 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in minimal action this season. The Kentucky Wildcats have nothing to lose in the final game of the regular season against the Louisville Cardinals this weekend.

Boley look really good for the situation he was thrown in. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s that guy next year

Someone needs to tell Stoops that tanking for a 1st Rd pick isn’t possible in the SEC.

Maybe shoulda happened week 1. This team has a lot of receiving talent and it was not maximized at all.

Kentucky fans should’ve been skeptical of Vandagriff from the jump.He got placed 3 string at UGA, he didn’t make the cut for Kirby he got beat out by Bennett and Beck for a reason.
It’s gonna be interesting to see what Vandagriff does nxt year does he return or transfer again.

If Cutter Boley looks good this weekend, then the Wildcats might be in a good spot at quarterback next season. However, if he looks horrendous against the Cardinals, they might have to look elsewhere at quarterback for the 2025 college football season.
