Another Depressing Number: 24-31

That's the conference record of our SEC opponents so far this year. Now that league play has concluded for us, it can not only be said that we faced the easiest conference schedule of anyone in the SEC this year, but also probably the softest SEC slate in the modern history of Kentucky football.

We played a historically bad SEC East (the worst division in all of the Power 5 this season, per the S&P+) and, on the other side, played the two worst teams in the SEC West (Miss State and Auburn).

All to say, it would be difficult to imagine having this navigable an SEC path ever again.

There isn't a P5 coach in the country that wouldn't love to play UK's schedule. Mississippi State - a decent, not great team - would be a Top 10 team against that schedule.
