LEXINGTON, Ky- Following their 24-7 loss to Tennesse, the Kentucky Wildcats football team has dropped nine spots in the rankings to No. 20 in the AP Poll.
Kentucky finished SEC play with a 5-3 record, but the loss most likely pushed Kentucky out of a New Years Six Bowl appearance and could allow Florida to take their spot.
Kentucky finishes out their season with matchups they’re expected to win against Middle Tennessee State and Lousiville, however, the lack of offense UK has been generating will make it tough to win regardless of the opponent.
