Kentucky at Texas A&M: Week three defensive X Factors

Kentucky football faces their first road game of the season as they will be in front of a hostile crowd in College Station to take on Texas A&M. We have previewed the Aggies defense, and what the Wildcats offense will be up against on Saturday. Both of these defense have looked like the better side of the football through two weeks, and we could be in for a defensive battle this weekend. Let's take a look at the X factors on the defense that can make an impact in this game.

ED Mi'Quise Humphrey-Grace

We talked all offseason how the scheme change on defense could be extremely beneficial to edge defender Mi'Quise Humphrey-Grace. Against Alabama, we saw that play out as Humphrey-Grace created issues for the Crimson Tide offensive line. The pick six was an unbelievable play from the 6'4, 270-pound edge. He also had a sack and 1.5 tackles for loss in the week two loss, but Humphrey-Grace is a football player that will put a ton of stress on this unproven Texas A&M offensive line.
