Athlon Sports has released their pre-season rankings for every team in the upcoming 2019 college football season.
The Kentucky wildcats have received a decent ranking of #39, right ahead of South Carolina, and right behind Mississippi State.
39. Kentucky
The Wildcats were the biggest surprise of the SEC last season. Winning 10 games again will be a challenge, but there’s still plenty to like about coach Mark Stoops’ team for 2019. Quarterback Terry Wilson has another offseason to develop, and even though Benny Snell will be missed at running back, Asim Rose (6.23 ypc) flashed potential in limited action.
