Kentucky Wildcats blasted in ranking of top college football teams
The Kentucky Wildcats, behind first-year head coach Will Stein, have a competent roster, but they aren't expected to do much this upcoming season.
The Kentucky Wildcats' coach, Will Stein, has been ranked 64th in the nation by The New York Times. Stein, a Kentucky native and former offensive coordinator for the Oregon Ducks, took over the team following a disappointing season under Mark Stoops. Despite the ranking, Stein has brought in several talented players, including transfers Kenny Minchey and CJ Baxter, as well as four new starters on the offensive line.
The continuity and upside for the team should be promising. However, with a challenging schedule that includes games against LSU and Alabama, doubts remain about whether the players will gel and how they will perform. Kentucky's first game of the season is against Youngstown State on September 5, followed by Alabama in Week 2.
