Music City Bowl

Dec. 29, 2007

Prediction: Kentucky vs. Georgia Tech

SEC no. 5 vs. ACC

Analysis:

Kentucky's skill position players may be the best of any team in the SEC, believe it or not. The trio of quarterback Andre Woodson, running back Rafael Little and wide receiver Keenan Burton are all candidates to earn first team All-SEC honors. The biggest question is, is their defense good enough to complement their offense. They may have to outscore some teams to win.

Addition by subtraction? The departure of quarterback Reggie Ball could be the best thing that happened to the Yellow Jackets. Junior Taylor Bennett steps into the position, and he didn't do too bad of a job last year in a backup role. Bennett last year completed 60.3 percent of his passes for 523 yards with five touchdowns and only two interceptions. Running back Tashard Choice will help take some of the pressure off Bennett.
