ESPN released its final preseason bowl projections and UK football fans better get ready to spend Christmas in Louisiana if the predictions come true. The masterminds behind the picks--Mark Schlabach and Brett McMurphy--predict Kentucky to the Independence Bowl in Shreveport, Louisiana. That's a December 26th, day-after-Christmas contest with North Carolina at 5:45 pm on ESPN. Kentucky is one of 13 SEC teams projected to go bowling from the SEC, leaving only Vanderbilt behind from postseason play. I can get down with Shreveport. One problem: UK hosts Louisville in basketball that day.
