BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The NM State football team's game against Kentucky on September 17 will kick off at 2:00 p.m. MT on the SEC Network Alternate, announced the SEC Tuesday. The game will be played at Commonwealth Stadium in Lexington, Ky.
This is the first meeting on the gridiron between the two schools. The Aggies played two SEC teams last years as they dropped decisions to both Florida and Ole Miss.
NM State will take on one more SEC team this year as they are also scheduled to play Texas A&M on October 29. The Aggies have faced at least one SEC team in five of the last six years.
