Kentucky Notches 7 Sacks in a 10-3 Victory at Auburn for Wildcats’ First SEC Win

On Saturday, Nov. 1, 2025, Kentucky Wildcats football team defeated Auburn Tigers football team 10-3 in Auburn, ending a four-game skid and securing their first win over Auburn since 2009.
Defensive pressure from the Wildcats led Kentucky defense to seven sacks and limited Auburn to one red-zone trip while harassing quarterbacks Ashton Daniels and Jackson Arnold all night.
Kentucky opened the second half with a 75-yard drive ending in a 13-yard touchdown pass from Cutter Boley to Kendrick Law, after Jacob Kauwe hit a 48-yard field goal with 11:41 left in the first half and the score tied 3-3 at halftime.
Following the defeat, pressure on Hugh Freeze, Auburn head coach, grew as he `occupies one of the hottest seats` after his third straight loss at Jordan-Hare Stadium and Auburn Tigers have lost five of six.
Next Saturday Kentucky hosts Florida at Kroger Field with a chance for back-to-back conference wins, after holding Auburn to 241 total yards and freshman Cameron Miller forced a key recovery.
