Notes: UK's Trevathan, Guy playing for high steaks, November 6, 2011

UK linebackers Danny Trevathan (left) has 111 tackles and Winston Guy has 94 with at least three games left in the season.

They've bet on who gets more tackles

One might say that senior defenders Danny Trevathan and Winston Guy have a higher "steak" in Kentucky's defense playing well.

Sure, they want to see Kentucky win games. Sure, it's all about the team, but they have other motivations.

They both want to fill their stomachs at the other's expense.

Trevathan and Guy, who each had double-digit tackles in Kentucky's 30-13 win over Ole Miss on Saturday, have a bet going this season.

Whoever has the most tackles at the end of the season will be buying the other one dinner. And it's going to be a costly one.

"If I win, I'm going to dig in his pockets," said Guy, who had 10 tackles, including 2.5 for a loss. "I might go to Malone's and get me a steak or something. ... Prime rib or something like that."

At one point this season, Guy led the team in tackles, but Trevathan would have none of it.  It just made him work harder.

In each of the past two games, Trevathan tied his career high for tackles with 17. On Saturday, he also had his third straight game with an interception. READ MORE PLEASE CLICK BELOW
