Kentucky football will be seeking its third consecutive win Saturday afternoon as the Wildcats host undefeated No. 8-ranked Tennessee Tech, one of the top teams in the FCS. It’s not a name that strikes fear, but the Golden Eagles are rolling, and Mark Stoops’ team can’t afford a step back with bowl eligibility still hanging in the balance.
After beating Auburn on the road and dominating Florida at home, Kroger Field suddenly feels alive again. Those two victories snapped a 10-game SEC losing streak and a 10-game home SEC losing streak, giving the Wildcats real momentum for the first time in over a year.
