Challenges for Kentucky

Kentucky football 2019 has so far not shown the dropoff, that some analysts predicted, from the successes of 2018. Now is the time to seize a win from the despised Florida Gators. Winning this game would send a message around the college football world that the Kentucky Wildcats are not a one-season wonder. The biggest challenge for the Wildcats in this game will be for backup QB Sawyer Smith to take charge of the offense in the absence of Terry Wilson. Smith will be going up against a tough Florida defense which is giving up just 10 points a game on average.

Saturday‘s game kicks off at 6:00 PM CT (7:00 PM ET). Watch on the ESPN Network.
