Kentucky Football will NOT host a Spring Game in 2021
Kentucky’s 15-practice spring season will not conclude with a Blue/White scrimmage at Kroger Field.
The University of Kentucky announced they will cancel the annual spring football game at Kroger Field, an event that would have interfered with ongoing COVID-19 testing and vaccination at the site.
“We are excited to begin spring practice next week,” head coach Mark Stoops said. “Although we won’t have a spring game, we are looking forward to what next season might look like and hopefully that is having full capacity at Kroger Field. We can’t wait to feel that energy again.
“I want to give a special shout-out to everyone working hard to give COVID tests and vaccines at Kroger Field. We appreciate the work they are doing for the people in the Commonwealth.”
The first practice of the season is Tuesday, March 16. Practices are closed to the public.
