Kentucky Football: Time to Take Back the Governor’s Cup

And so it’s come to this. To reach the six win plateau and become bowl eligible for the first time in way too long, the University of Kentucky football team has to defeat intrastate rival Louisville.

What head coach Mark Stoops and the Wildcats have on Saturday afternoon at Commonwealth Stadium is a chance to right the 2015 season and send the Cards back up I-64 heartbroken.
