Kendrick Law's career day and Seth McGowan's three first-half touchdowns propelled Kentucky to its third straight victory with a 42-10 win over Tennessee Tech on Saturday afternoon in Lexington.

Law helped the Wildcats (5-5, 2-5 SEC) coast in a game they never trailed, catching all 11 of his targets for 124 yards, both good for career-highs. McGowan put up multiple TDs for the second straight week as he finished with 72 yards.

Wildcat QB Cutter Boley was 18-of-21 passing for 236 yards with one touchdown through the air and one on the ground.

The Golden Eagles (10-1) came into the day as the No. 5 team in the FCS and with the nation's longest win streak at 15 games.

Tennessee Tech quarterback Kekoa Visperas completed 13 of his 21 passes for 112 yards with a touchdown and an interception to go along with 44 yards rushing. Maury Sullivan had six receptions for 63 yards.

The Golden Eagles got the first score of the second half with a 38-yard field goal from Dom LeBlanc to cut the score to 28-10.

Hardley Gilmore IV made sure to put the Golden Eagles firmly out of the game with a 45-yard catch and run to push the lead to 35-10 with 2:24 left in the third.

Dante Dowdell continued the ground game onslaught with a 19-yard scamper to cap his 87-yard day to finish off the scoring for the day with 10:37 left.

Kentucky finished with 207 yards rushing, the most Tennessee Tech has given up all year. The Golden Eagles had allowed just two teams to finish with more than 100.

The Wildcats highlighted that with two rushing TDs to start the day: a 1-yarder by McGowan and a 30-yarder by Boley for a quick 14-0 lead.

McGowan added a 4-yarder with 3:46 left in the half for a 21-0 lead.

After missing a short field goal earlier in the half, the Golden Eagles got on the board with an 8-yard catch by Brian Courtney with 1:18 to go in the half.

It was too much time for the Wildcats as McGowan scored from 1 yard out again for a 28-7 first half lead.
