Challenges for Kentucky

This is a game that UK can’t afford to lose. A loss and the Cats would risk missing a bowl bid and that would really stink coming off of the 10-win season in 2018. Kentucky as a team needs to pick itself up and salvage whatever success they can in 2019. Otherwise, the accomplishments that Mark Stoops and his team made last season will be seen as sort of a blind squirrel finding a nut.

Saturday‘s game kicks off at 6:30 PM CT (7:30 PM ET). Watch on the SEC Network.
