LSU has scored against Kentucky in several years. But Kentucky stayed in the game all the way.

Our kids told me they were really getting tapped out there tonight. Still, I think we have fewer injuries than in any other game this season. "We got bigger plays than we have all season. Our quarterbacks were on target, so we went to what they call the bomb. "There'll be a day when we won't make those mistakes.

I would guess it had better be next week." LSU is home to Auburn in a regional televised game than I expected us to," said McClendon. "We got them pass conscious, and then ran up the middle. The coach added: "We weren't as ready, for the game as I thought we should be. We didn't come out on the field mentally sharp, and our sideline wasn't fired up to play a good football game. "But when we can score that many points and gain that many yards with all those errors, we must have something going for us.

We got away with the fumbles and interceptions because our defense came through again. "That's the most points seemed to settle down the Tigers, who had lost three fumbles early in the contest. Thanks to LSU's magnificent defense, the errors only cost three points, on a 32-yard field goal by Bobby Jones. Thereafter, LSU started throwing the bomb as it never has before. Senior quarterback Mike Hillman threw two touchdown passes to split end Lonny Myles, for 31 and 37 yards; junior quarterback Buddy Lee hurled a 26-yard scoring pass to Randy Toms, and soph quarterback Butch Duhe set up his one-yard TD run with a 45-yard pass to soph split end Curtis Martin.

(AP) -Georgia combined three touch-down passes by Mike Cavan with a rugged defense to score an easy 40-8 Southeastern Conference football victory over Vanderbilt here Saturday night. Cavan, rifling his throws with pinpoint accuracy, hit split end Charles Whittemore with scoring strikes of 41 and 10 yards, and added a 22-yard TD toss to Mike Greene. The triumph evened the Bulldogs SEC record at 1-1 and boosted it to 4-1 overall, while the loss put Vandy at 1-1 in season. Georgia scored first on a 33-yard field goal by Jim McCul-lough and a touchdown five minutes later left little doubt about the outcome. The Georgia defense, meanwhile, stopped the Commodores' offense cold, except for the later stages when the Bulldog reserves got into action.

Cavan's first touchdown pass, the 41-yarder to Whittemore, capped a 76-yard drive which took only seven plays.
