Kentucky College Football 2024 Preview: What’s the Situation?
Impressive. Kentucky has been to eight straight bowl games, as consistency has been achieved. It’s a good thing when 7-5 feels like a letdown.
Here’s the question moving forward: With Oklahoma and Texas added, is there a path for the Wildcats to win eight or more games in the foreseeable future?
2024 Kentucky NCAAF AREAS TO WATCH:
The best news offensively is having their left tackle earn a 7th year of eligibility. He’s “old”, but necessary for an offense with incredible uncertainty at QB and RB, and yet another offensive coordinator change.
I have the run attack down from 5.45 per carry to 4.4, and will clearly chart ex-Georgia QB Vandagriff’s progress. The DL led the way to an unexpected 3.3-110+ run defense. I’m using 3.7 this year, which would still be a quality result.
The defense is full of experience, so despite the tough schedule they could keep scoring down, although the pass D% is high (67% last year, 65% projected this year. Their PK missed one kick all year, and that was from 50+ yards.
Kentucky Football 2024 Predicted Total Wins Prediction
I said 7-5 would not be all that bad a year ago, and the Wildcats met that mark. Despite some roster continuity and good kicking, they could be just 5-5, not counting hosting Auburn and Louisville (grid has the floor 6-6).
Unfortunately, for the Wildcats, even a soft non-conference schedule isn’t helping them in their quest to move up the ladder in the powerful SEC.

2024 Kentucky Football Schedule and Games to Watch
Kentucky has its usual soft non-conference schedule with the exception of the finale vs. Louisville. If there’s one danger, it’s hosting Ohio U between SEC games vs. Georgia and at Mississippi.
The goal is a split hosting South Carolina and at Mississippi (won’t be easy), and at least a split in games at Florida and hosting Auburn.
Prechecks include QB performance, and if I see anything unusual related to their defensive #’s. Circumstances likely mean losses at Tennessee and Texas. The Wildcats have won the last five in the Louisville series. There’s no question the Cardinals will be motivated in the finale.
Kentucky Wildcats 2024 Football Expert HANDICAPPING TIP
I think they have a cover shot 9/28 at Mississippi. I’ll fade them 11/2 if Tennessee is the rush stat pick.
