Stoops: 'No setbacks' in Will Levis' return from injury to start vs. Mississippi State

All signs point to Kentucky football quarterback Will Levis returning to the starting lineup Saturday night when the No. 22 Wildcats host No. 16 Mississippi State at Kroger Field.

Head coach Mark Stoops on Thursday said there have been "no setbacks" in Levis' recovery from an undisclosed left foot injury he sustained during a Week 5 loss at Ole Miss. Levis wore a boot on the sideline while sitting out during UK's 24-14 loss to South Carolina last Saturday but told the SEC Network before the game that he would be "good" by the time coach Mike Leach and the Bulldogs arrive in Lexington.
