Where was the played:

With Kentucky trailing by four points and 3:31 remaining, the Wildcats launched an eight-play, 80-yard go-ahead scoring drive. Robinson tallied four catches for 86 yards on the drive. His final catch, a 52-yard reception, broke UK’s record for most receiving yards in a single season (1,334).

Robinson’s 52-yard catch gave Kentucky first-and-goal at the 1-yard line. After a Kentucky false start, junior running back Chris Rodriguez broke a tackle in the backfield to score the winning touchdown with a 6-yard carry.

“Just plays so hard and makes such competitive plays in big moments,” Kentucky coach Mark Stoops said of Robinson after Kentucky’s 20-17 win.

But that matters very little to the Hawkeyes and their fans, who will fly back to Iowa with a 20-17 loss to Mark Stoops and the SEC’s Kentucky.

The Hawkeyes had their destiny in their own hands, with the ball and a timeout, starting at their 25, down 20-17, with 1:48 left to win the game. And the drive started with promise.

Iowa advanced to the Kentucky 40 with 48 seconds left. But then, Spencer Petras threw an errant pass into the diving arms of DeAndre Square at the Wildcats’ 26.
