By SAM ADAMS Journal Sports Editor LEXINGTON, Ky. "I think this is the first good game Auburn has ever turned in in Lexington," Coach Kalph Jordan said of a 28-7 winning effort Saturday night.

"We played a hellish defensive game, contained (Dickie) Lyons most of the lime, kept the ball away from him on kickoffs and punts, and recovered fumbles. We can become a very fine team if we can get our offensive game on an even keel. At the start of (he game, we had a whip hand, lost it and came back in the second half to get it back."

Concerning Bresler's injury, he said, "We were most disappointed over his injury because we were looking for great things of him, being a 9.7 track man. We don't think his knee is hurt as badly as we first thought." Jordan then heaped praise upon Kentucky's Lyons and Roller. "Lyons is as fine a football player as there is in the conference.

He had some tough luck tongiht. And Roller is as fine a defensive lineman as Auburn has faced, not this year but any year. He's one helluva player." Coach Charlie Bradshaw of Kentucky gave Auburn full credit. "They just whipped us," he said. "We never could get any kind of attack going and had to play catch up all the time.

The biggest thing was field position, they kept us backed up all the time. We repeatedly let them make the big third down plays. But Auburn simply has a good football team."
