Brock Vandagriff to Jordan Dingle for a 5-yard TD. The big play on that drive was a 46-yard pass from Vandagriff to Ja'Mori Maclin. Kentucky 31, Southern Miss 0 (9:56, 3Q).

Oh no. Game is being suspended due to lightning again. There's 9:56 on the clock. Teams going back to locker rooms (and I imagine most fans will be headed home). Kentucky leads 31-0.

Mitch Barnhart and Mark Stoops are now stationed outside of Southern Miss tunnel. Looks like a discussion about what's next is about to happen.

NEW: Even Mark Stoops wasn’t totally sure what to expect from Brock Vandagriff in his first start. But after Vandagriff’s three-year wait was extended by a couple hours, he offered plenty of reason to hope he can still cash in on his recruiting hype. kentucky.com/sports/college…

According to UK's game notes, seven true freshmen played in the opener vs. Southern Miss: Quay'sheed Scott, Cam Dooley, Jason Patterson, Steven Soles, Antwan Smith, Willie Rodriguez, David Washington.

NEW: There was always still going to be uncertainty about what Kentucky would look like in SEC play after the opener, but playing only a little more than one half means we know even less than expected. These three questions about UK still linger. kentucky.com/sports/college…

NEW: What you need to know from UK's first SEC-mandated injury report of the season. Some good news for one starter. kentucky.com/sports/college…

Last night, the SEC shared UK’s first injury report of the season. This will update daily. The final update comes 90 min before game time. kentucky.com/sports/college…

NEW: Brock Vandagriff did his best Will Levis impersonation on multiple first quarter runs Saturday. But can he last through a full SEC schedule with that running style? kentucky.com/sports/college…

Last night I tweeted the "probable" players on UK's availability report had been removed in Thursday's update. Not sure if I missed something last night or the report had not fully loaded, but those guys are still listed as probable this morning. kentucky.com/sports/college…

The only change on UK's availability report update tonight was a downgrade of backup WR Brandon White from doubtful to out. kentucky.com/sports/college…
