Kentucky could spend New Year’s Day in Tampa

Heading to the Sunshine State for bowl season has become a somewhat normal occurrence for Kentucky football under Mark Stoops.

Three of the last five bowl appearances that Kentucky has made have been in Florida with a win over Penn State in the Citrus Bowl and a victory over NC State in the Gator Bowl. Expectations are for Kentucky to get back to the postseason this year, and the program could make a return trip to Florida.

Jerry Palm of CBS Sports has released his first bowl projections of the season, and the prognosticator is calling for Kentucky to return to the Outback Bowl for the first time in over two decades.
