November 8th, 2015 was the date of Kentucky’s last home game and to be honest it seems like that took place sometime last century. Tomorrow will begin a new era for football in Lexington in more ways than one. Not only is the Louisiana game the debut of the newly remodeled Commonwealth Stadium but we also have the launch of Shannon Dawson’s offense and a look at Stoops’ continued rebuilding job. In Year 2 the team knocked on the door of success but this year they could be poised to kick that mother wide open.
The good vibes are bounding around Lexington and the Cats have an opportunity to kick-off the season with a major beat-em-down that fills the fanbase with confidence for the rest of the year.
