You don’t need me to tell you what’s a stake for Kentucky football–11-1 with an outside shot of the College Football Playoff and a lock for a New Year’s Six bowl game. The folks in the Kentucky Football facility don’t need anyone to tell them that either. They, like all of us, know what’s on the table. However, that can’t be accomplished until Kentucky wins in Starkville, something the Wildcats haven’t done in over 12 years.

Despite being ranked 12th in the country and off to the best start since the 1950s, Kentucky has been in this spot before.
