Pavia throws 2 touchdown passes, Vanderbilt tops error-prone Kentucky 20-13 for 2nd straight SEC win

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- , Diego Pavia passed for two touchdowns, Brock Taylor kicked two long field goals and Vanderbilt held off mistake-prone Kentucky 20-13 on Saturday night for its second consecutive Southeastern Conference victory. The Commodores (4-2, 2-1) never trailed in following up last week’s historic 40-35 victory over top-ranked Alabama and earned back-to-back SEC wins for the first time since beating Kentucky and Florida two years ago. Pavia threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to AJ Newberry on their first possession before adding a tiebreaking 18-yard scoring pass to Richie Hoskins with 13 seconds remaining before halftime. “I feel like we are clicking on the same page,” said Pavia, who left the game in the third quarter after hurting his knee but returned to finish.
