Kentucky Beats Louisville 23-16 in Phillips' Debut
Derrick Locke ran for two touchdowns and Kentucky held off rival Louisville 23-16 Saturday, keeping the Governor's Cup for the fourth straight season and making Joker Phillips victorious in a matchup of longtime friends debuting as head coaches. Phillips, who gained prominence as a coordinator of a record-breaking offense at his alma mater, has hinted this 2010 version could be as good as the Andre Woodson-led unit of three and four years ago. The Wildcats didn't disappoint in the opener, gobbling up yardage in bulk - particularly on the ground from Locke, who had 104 yards on 23 carries.
