Kentucky Football's History vs. No. 1 Teams

This weekend the Kentucky football team will try to do something that’s only happened three times in school history: beat the No. 1 team in the country.

The Wildcats will travel to Georgia to take on the top-ranked Bulldogs between the hedges at Sanford Stadium. College GameDay and SEC Nation will be in Athens for the 3:30 pm ET kickoff on CBS. The stakes don’t get much higher.

Kentucky is 3-17 all-time against top-ranked teams, most recently facing off against No. 1 Alabama last fall. Without Chris Rodriguez and a dozen others in COVID-19 protocol, the Crimson Tide cruised to a 63-3 win.
