Kentucky hosts South Alabama at Kroger Field in Lexington on Sept. 26, with kickoff at 12:45 p.m. ET on SEC Network. The 2-1 Wildcats are coming off a 31-21 win over No. 9 Texas A&M; FanDuel lists them as 20.5-point favorites over the 2-1 Jaguars.
South Alabama has not settled on a quarterback for Saturday. Bishop Davenport started the first two games, but Jared Hollins took over in the third after a reported “minor injury”; Hollins threw for 192 yards and a touchdown in a 41-36 win over Ohio. Running backs Keenan Phillips and PJ Martin have 226 and 222 yards, respectively.
This is the first meeting between the programs, and the game will also stream on ESPN+ and the ESPN app. Dimers predicts a 38-17 Kentucky win, DRatings projects 32-19, and the article’s writer picks a 41-17 Wildcats victory.
