Kentucky will come back following their bye week with this matchup with the Commodores. They’ll now try to keep their momentum going after an opening five-game stretch that had to turn around from a 25-point home loss to South Carolina into a one-point loss to No. 1 Georgia and a three-point win over No. 6 Ole Miss in Oxford.

Vanderbilt also had an up-and-down, yet competitive, first five games. They followed an opening upset over Virginia Tech with a loss two weeks later at Georgia State. Still, in their first two conference games, they nearly got Missouri on the road in double overtime before getting an all-time win over No. 1 Alabama last weekend.
