Report: Kentucky adds 2020 non-conference game against Ohio Valley squad
The Kentucky Wildcats have already finished their 2019 schedule, and now they are done with their 2020 schedule.
The Wildcats will reportedly play an Ohio Valley Conference team to complete their 2020 non-conference slate.
According to FBSchedules.com, Kentucky will host Eastern Illinois — the alma mater of Tony Romo, Wade Phillips and Mike Shanahan — on Oct. 10, 2020:

The Panthers are an FCS team, so that will not do the Wildcats any favors when it comes to strength of schedule, but it will give them a break in the early stages of their 2020 SEC schedule.
The game against Eastern Illinois will join games against Louisville, Eastern Michigan and Kent State on the Wildcats’ 2020 non-conference slate.
