Seniors on 'D' leave final mark
By Matt May, November 26, 2011
The seniors on Kentucky’s defense had been in this position so many times before. Maligned for much of their careers, called the weak link more often than they could recall they were a group of players intent on leaving one final mark on Kentucky football.

Kentucky beat Tennessee 10-7, ending a 26-year losing streak that had grown to mythical proportions. In a season gone awry it was the storybook ending a cast of all-stars, cast-offs and everything in between had longed to live.
“It’s probably the best feeling in the world,” senior linebacker Winston Guy said. “It’s like a tattoo, once you get it it’s there. This game is like a tattoo.
