The number turned out to be 10.

Certainly a recipe for a rough watch..

But fans probably didn't expect this result.

Early action..

Cats looking good..

Josh ali takes the jet sweep..

All the way inside the 20.

Uk would settle for 3.

Then the wheels would fall off.

With a chance to cut it bama lead to one..

Bad snap on a would be 24 yard field..

Turns into bama ball at midfield.

Tide taking quick advantage..

Former uk commit mac jones..

Buying time..

And then slinging it c1 3 into the endzone to devonta smith.

That would make it 14-6.

Later..

It's najae harris on the hand-off..

Cuts up field..

Splits two defenders and he'll take it 42 yards for the score.

A student earning a medical degree from lexington's medquest campus thought she was just getting extra practice when she scanned a friend at the school...but what she found ended up likely saving his life.

Abc 36's bobbi mcswine brings us the heartwarming story.

####### chris ward: "i am 100 percent grateful for this student that's beside me.

Well, virtually beside me!

Chris ward...an alumni....and at the time an employee of medquest college in lexington... meanwhile..jessica begley is studying to be a sonographer at medquest...and often scans friends and family for practice jessica begley: "i needed a new body to scan, so i went up front in our building to talk to our admission officers."

Ward says he jumped at the opportunity.

Chris: "i was like 'im gonna get scanned by these sonography students.

This is cool.'

Butted "it's kinda ironic that the one time i do, it leads me to the er."

When begley scanned his heart...she says she found his ventricle was significantly enlarged...and his aorta was abnormally dialated...in other words...something was seriously wrong with his heart.

Jessica: "it was definitely a little scary because you see things through your text book and the time that you're at school and you hear about things, but you don't usually see those things in scan lab."

Begley talked to her instruar again...and took his blood pressure...which was very high.

Ward was rushed to u-k hospital... chris: "they were teling me at uk, they were like, yould have had a stroke."

Or even worse.

Ward says he had flair ups in the past...but it wasn't serious.

Now he wants everyone to pay attention to their heart health...no matter how good they feel.

Chris: "if i don't feel bad i think 'oh i'm healthy.

I'm fine.'

Know your family history and if you're ever offered to get scanned do it."

It might just save your life... in lexington...bobbi mcswine...abc 36 news.
