Kentucky reveals uniform combo for Black Out game against Florida
Published:
Despite last week’s loss to Tennessee in Knoxville, there’s still plenty of momentum behind the Kentucky football program, as Will Stein‘s first season at the helm has been more than memorable.
And the Wildcats are hoping to add to their 2026 highlights when they welcome Florida to Lexington on Saturday, although UK has historically struggled against the visitors. Those Gators own a 54-21 all-time advantage in the series, but Kentucky has managed to win 4 of the past 5 matchups between the sides.
Looking to inject a bit of extra energy into Kroger Field, the program opted to go with a Black Out theme for this weekend’s game, with the fans set to be dressed in kind alongside the players.
The ‘Cats have worn all-black many times before, although the blue-and-white center stripe on the helmet and traditional initial logos on the sides appear to be updates to the prior look.
With both Kentucky and Florida being fresh off disappointing defeats, each team will be desperate to rebound in a major way. On top of that, this result will likely go a long way in determining how these first-year head coaches are perceived after the season.
The Wildcats and Gators will kick off at 6:15 p.m. ET on Saturday, with the game being broadcast by ESPN.
