Former Wildcat QB Derrick Ramsey to Appear on 'Sports Nightly'
Tuesday 08-19-2008 10:46am ET
As a Kentucky Wildcat, Derrick Ramsey led UK to back-to-back incredible seasons. In 1976, the Cats won seven regular-season games and then trounced North Carolina in the Peach Bowl 21-0, Kentucky's first bowl appearance in 25 years. The thousands of fans who followed the Wildcats to Atlanta set a standard for support since topped at the past two Music City Bowls. In 1977, Ramsey was under center as the Cats went 10-1, the only loss coming on a sun-baked artificial surface on a blistering-hot day in Waco, Texas, to the Baylor Bears. Ramsey went on to a professional career that saw him make stops in Oakland, New England and Detroit. He played in a pair of Super Bowls, winning a ring with the Raiders. Ramsey recently was named Athletics Director at Coppin State University, in Baltimore. He'll join Dick Gabriel on "Sports Nightly," beginning at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
