The Big Blue Nation is buzzing after Kentucky’s 33-14 home win over Florida in Week 5. On Saturday, Kentucky will put their undefeated record on the line against No. 1 Georgia on the road. When the Wildcats return home in Week 7, a full crowd will be awaiting them.

On Thursday evening, the University of Kentucky announced that the second night of game of the season has been sold out. Kroger Field will be bumping on Oct. 14 for the first Keeneland double-dip of the season.

The meeting next Saturday will be the 14th all-time meeting between Kentucky and Missouri. The Wildcats own a 9-4 series lead over the Tigers with seven wins in the last eight meetings. However, this one could be different than all of the rest.

Missouri is off to a 5-0 start in year four under Eliah Drinkwitz. New offensive coordinator Kirby Moore has made a big splash in Columbia as Brady Cook is giving Mizzou some high-level quarterback play with a 74.5 percent completion rate on 10.4 yards per attempt with 11 passing touchdowns and zero interceptions. Luther Burden is making an All-American statement with 43 receptions for 644 yards and five touchdowns. Mizzou is a home win against LSU away from a very surprising 6-0 start.

There is a chance that Kentucky and Missouri could both be ranked for a significant game in the SEC East. There will be a lively crowd on hand for the matchup.
