UK Football schedules three-game series with Akron
What will the UK Football program look like in 2021? I’m not sure, but I do know they’ll play Akron. According to FBSchedules.com, Kentucky has agreed to a three-game series with the Akron Zips for 2021, 2023, and 2024. Two games will be played in Lexington and one in Akron.
Kentucky will pay Akron $1.3 million for the 2021 game and $250,000 for the 2024 game. The Cats won’t receive anything for the game at Akron in 2023.
