Kentucky Wins Overtime Thriller Over LSU with Two‑Point Conversion

In a dramatic overtime showdown, the Kentucky Wildcats edged the No. 10 LSU Tigers 35‑34 after a second straight walk‑off two‑point conversion win. Regulation ended tied 27‑27, and LSU’s first overtime possession saw quarterback Sam Leavitt spark a 10‑yard pass and a 15‑yard run for a lead, followed by an extra point by Scott Starzyk. Kentucky answered with a touchdown and a two‑point conversion, highlighted by running back CJ Baxter’s 1‑yard run and quarterback Kenny Minchy’s decisive run into the end zone. The victory marks the first time an FBS team has won back‑to‑back overtime games by a single point, underscoring Kentucky’s resilience after a similar win a week earlier against South Carolina.
