Kentucky is expecting full capacity for games at Kroger Field this fall.
Coming off of a 5-6 2020 campaign capped with a Gator Bowl win over NC State, Mark Stoops’ squad returns to action on Sept. 4, hosting ULM.
“Coming off three straight bowl wins and the enthusiasm for the team that Coach Stoops is putting together, we couldn’t be more eager for the upcoming season,” UK Director of Athletics Mitch Barnhart said in a statement released Wednesday. “With an exciting lineup of opponents, and anticipating the return of bands, cheerleaders, tailgating and everything that goes along with college football Saturdays, we’re planning for great times at Kroger Field this fall.”
Kentucky’s 2021 home schedule shapes up as follows:
- Sept. 11 – Missouri
- Sept. 18 – Chattanooga
- Oct. 2 – Florida
- Oct. 9 – LSU
- Nov. 6 – Tennessee
- No. 20 – New Mexico State
