At one point this season, Kentucky was ranked as high as No. 11 in the Coaches Poll. The ‘Cats got off to a 6-0 start that included wins over Florida and LSU. UK has slipped a bit since then, losing three straight but winning its last two. A close-out win over UL would conclude what has been a special regular season.
