After a monster road win against a top-15 Florida squad, Kentucky returns to Kroger Field on Saturday for two quick non-conference games before hitting the road again in conference play. It’s FCS week in the Bluegrass, but this year seems different.
There will be a big family reunion with Youngstown State rolling into Lexington, and the players in the Joe Craft Football Training Facility have heard about Mark Stoops and his hometown roots all week. That could make this FCS game in an old fashioned trap spot a little different.
Kentucky is a heavy, heavy favorite for a reason as the Cats have major size, speed, and talent advantages at multiple positions.
