With the Blue-White Sport formally within the books, it’s time to start out previewing and searching forward at UK’s 2022 schedule! Bear in mind, it’s not nearly who play and the place you play them, but additionally when you play them as properly.

Some groups are quite a bit simpler to beat at sure weeks or factors of the season for numerous causes—particularly if UK is well-rested. Let’s dive in—September third can’t come quickly sufficient!

• Sport 1 September third: Miami (OH)
• Sport 2 September tenth: @ Florida
• Sport 3 September seventeenth: Youngstown State
• Sport 4 September twenty fourth: Northern Illinois

September is filled with alternative for UK, as they get to kick off the season at residence vs a MAC group after which play an FCS group and one other MAC group in Week 3 and Week 4. The principle occasion in fact is the showdown in The Swamp with Florida, who hopefully will nonetheless appear like the Gators who cratered to a 6-7 end final season as a result of if that’s the case the considered the ‘Cats probably getting back-to-back victories in opposition to them is so thrilling!

• Sport 5 October 1st: @ Ole Miss
• Sport 6 October eighth: South Carolina
• Sport 7 October fifteenth: Mississippi State
• Bye
• Sport 8 October twenty ninth: @ Tennessee

Way more troublesome schedule within the second month, with a uncommon journey to Oxford, Mississippi beginning issues off and an at all times troublesome battle in Knoxville closing it. Every of these street video games shall be large—profitable both one may spotlight the season—however it will likely be crucial that the Cats additionally defend residence turf in opposition to South Carolina and Mississippi State, the latter of which beat UK final season.

• Sport 9 November fifth: @ Missouri
• Sport 10 November twelfth: Vanderbilt
• Sport 11 November nineteenth: Georgia
• Sport 12 November 26: Louisville

UK actually, actually wants to have the ability to beat Mizzou, Vandy, and Louisville to each shut out the season robust and hopefully make the SEC finale in opposition to Georgia be for the East Division! All the opposite video games will construct as much as the Georgia sport, and I feel UK’s odds of beating Georgia rely on them additionally getting as many wins as they will of their different video games.

Ought to be an thrilling season this fall! If I needed to circle the video games that look essentially the most thrilling, I’d say the Florida and Ole Miss ones because of the distinctive alternatives each street video games current for Kentucky. Hopefully they will come out of spring and fall practices able to roll. Go ‘Cats!
