Previewing the biggest November in Kentucky football history
The Wildcats are gearing up for the biggest month of November in Kentucky football history. On Saturday, Kentucky travels to Knoxville to play the Tennessee Volunteers and it will be the first time since 1977 that Kentucky is ranked in the top ten for a November football game. This is uncharted territory for the Cats, and what head coach Will Stein has managed to do in year one is unbelievably unprecedented. Before we dive into our preview of the Vols, let's look at the rest of the regular season in what could be a November to remember for Kentucky. Last week as Kentucky was on their bye week, we did a self scout analysis of Kentucky's offense and defense. On our analysis of Jay Bateman's defense, we highlighted the growth from the first month of the season to the second month and how this group has improved their run defense. This was encouraging because Kentucky is going to face some of the most talented rushing offenses in the country over the next four games. The Cats will face DeSean Bishop, Jadan Baugh, Jamal Roberts and Isaac Brown; all four running backs rank top 30 in rushing yards among the FBS
