After more than a decade away, Kentucky finds itself back in the national polls on Sunday.
The undefeated Cats, with wins over two top 25 teams already this season, were ranked No. 17 in the Associated Press poll that was released minutes ago and came in at No. 17 in the USA Today/Amway coaches’ poll.
It’s the first time Kentucky has been ranked in a national poll since Nov. 11, 2007 when the Cats were No. 22. That season their highest national ranking was No. 8.
The last time UK was ranked in the coaches’ poll was at the same time in November of 2007 when the Cats were No.
