Football Schedules
Way to go Kentucky! 3 home game cupcakes for an SEC nobody. Where are you Wildcat defenders?
Paying attention to basketball and not knowing they have a football team
No need to defend anything to a couple of loser, GFY
typical SEC.. in fear of competition. And the few instances a decent team shows up on a non-conf schedule, it’s at a “neutral” filed in the south. Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, etc
better than Eastern Ky but not by much
When will the UK PUSSYcats schedule Marshall, a G5 program just two hours from Lexington. Oh, I know, they might get beat. Should change the mascot to Chicken.
Why are you all so jealous of us? Lol! SMH…keep on trolling trolls. So funny
Go Cats!!!!
Alabama has Charleston Southern and ULM and its considered the #1 SOS. so Louisville, and having the #25 SOS in the country. I think thats enough. 25/128. upper quarter. So shut up.
Alabama plays: #20 Wisconsin, #17 Ole Miss, @ #10 Georgia, #18 Arkansas, @#16 Texas A&M, #22 Tennessee, #14 LSU, @#25 Miss St & @#6 Auburn.
That is why they are #1 SOS
