It is Football Time in the Bluegrass once again. Following their second bye week of the season, the Kentucky Wildcats (2-3, 0-3) will host the #21 Texas Longhorns (4-2, 1-1) at 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time on ESPN. The Longhorns are coming off of a convincing 23-6 Red River Rivalry win over Oklahoma. Meanwhile, in Lexington, Big Blue Nation is bracing themselves for back-to-back Top 25 home matchups against Texas and Tennessee. The seat is only going to continue to get hotter for Coach Mark Stoops barring a couple of big upsets.
With the Blue-White Game on Friday night and an exhibition with #1 Purdue next Friday there is definitely a portion of the fanbase that is ready to check out and move onto basketball season.
