If you're watching tonight, this is the one. Kentucky kicks off at 6:15 p.m. on ESPN at Tennessee in the first SEC night game of the year, and it's homecoming. The Wildcats have lost 19 of their last 20 at Neyland Stadium, with a 34-7 win on Oct. 17, 2020, the lone exception.
The Wildcats are 7-1 and debuted at No. 6 in the College Football Playoff rankings, the program's highest in the playoff era. They're a 6.5-point underdog in Knoxville. Coach Will Stein said Tuesday that "if you don't handle your business this week, then nothing really matters."
