In this Cats Illustrated feature, we take a look at the key numbers behind Kentucky's 21-0 loss to No. 10 Georgia on Saturday night in Athens.

0 - Points by either team in the first half. Georgia did not score the game's first points until the 6:20 mark of the third quarter.

0 - Times Georgia crossed the 50-yard line in the first half. The Bulldogs didn't make it into UK territory until a shanked put gave it to them at the UK 39 with 6:31 left in the third quarter.

2-for-16 - Kentucky pass attempts on the night.

4 - Punts inside the Georgia 20 by UK punter Max Duffy.

7 - Penalties by UK for 60 yards in losses, including three first downs nullified.

9 - First downs for the Wildcats.

84 - Games since UK was last shut out, the infamous 40-0 loss to Vanderbilt on Nov. 3, 2012.

92 - Yard drive by UGA to put the game away late in the fourth quarter. The Dawgs used 13 plays and 8:18 off the clock to seal the win.
