Kentucky football has one goal at the forefront of its 2022 season: Reach the Southeastern Conference championship at Atlanta's Mercedes Benz Stadium.
"We break it down on that, everything we do," starting quarterback Will Levis said during SEC Media Days in July. "We just want to make sure everything we do is in line with that goal."
If the Wildcats want to make that dream a reality, they'll need some new playmakers to emerge around Levis and an experienced linebacker corps. Gone are electric wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson and defensive line anchor Josh Paschal, and senior running back Chris Rodriguez's status remains uncertain after he pleaded guilty to operating a motor vehicle under the influence in July.
