2023 College Football Rankings 1-133: First Look

Kentucky Football Schedule What To Know: Who do the Wildcats miss from the SEC slate?

Kentucky gets Alabama.

It’s at least a home game, but it has to play the Crimson Tide right after a home date against Mississippi State. Missing LSU isn’t a bad thing this year, and not having to deal with Texas A&M should be a big bonus. The Cats don’t play Arkansas, Auburn, or Ole Miss, either.

That’s all fine – missing likely bowl bound teams from the SEC is always a plus – but again … Alabama is on the slate. That’s bad, but it gets worse …

Kentucky Football Schedule What Really Matters

November is a monster.

There’s a week off before the finishing stretch, and the Tennessee game is at home, but three of the last four games are on the road going to Mississippi State, South Carolina, and over to Louisville to end the regular season. All that is wrapped around Alabama.

Before dealing with those final five games, and before the week off, UK gets Missouri at home (good) and has to go to Georgia (bad … very bad).

But …

Kentucky Football Schedule What To Know: What does it all really mean?

Overall, though, this isn’t that bad a schedule.

Going to Georgia is obviously a bear, but Florida, Tennessee, and Alabama are all in Lexington. That, and it helps that the team isn’t exactly extending itself in non-conference play.

It gets that rivalry game against Louisville, but it starts the season against Ball State, Eastern Kentucky, and Akron.

Those should be three layups before going to Vanderbilt. Roll through that, and then it’s about the home game against Florida. Get to 5-0 and that makes that brutal second half of the slate a tad nicer.

Kentucky Football Schedule What To Know: Who do the Wildcats miss from the SEC West slate?

The Wildcats can’t complain. They have to go to Ole Miss and host Mississippi State from the West. That means they miss Alabama, Texas, A&M, Auburn, LSU, and Arkansas. That’s not too bad.

The games against the East aren’t all that bad, either. They have to start out the SEC season at Florida, but the road date at Tennessee comes after a week off, and the Georgia game is at home.

Kentucky Football Schedule What To Know: November might not be all that bad

Playing Georgia is bad no matter when it happens, but again, at least that’s at home.

At Missouri, Vanderbilt, and Louisville are wrapped around the date with the Dawgs. Throw in the October home games against South Carolina and Mississippi State, and five of the last seven games and eight of the last ten, and there isn’t a whole lot to complain about.

That means …

Kentucky Football Schedule What To Know: What does it all really mean?

Really? There are only four road games?

Yup, and if Florida hasn’t built back better under Billy Napier two weeks in, there’s a shot at a massive record to kick off the season before going to Ole Miss.

There isn’t a non-conference game to worry about – all of them are at home – and there aren’t going to be too many times Kentucky will be the underdog. So go ahead and put it out there …

If Kentucky is ever going to get over the hump in the SEC East, this is the schedule to make it happen.
