Kentucky will be looking for its third straight bowl appearance in football this season as Mark Stoops looks to continue to strengthen his program, and according to Athlon Sports, the Wildcats’ schedule will help them get there.
Athlon ranked every SEC team’s schedule for the 2018 season, and Rob McVey ranked UK 11th out of the conference’s 14 teams.
The Wildcats’ non-conference slate is fairly underwhelming, even with a road matchup against in-state rival Louisville. They are fortunate to get SEC East foes Georgia and South Carolina at home. Although that probably won’t be enough to help the Wildcats get into the win column in either case.
