Heading into this weekend’s game, Texas is 8-1 overall and 4-1 in conference play before traveling to Fayetteville to face 5-4 Arkansas. The Wildcats, led by 12th-year head coach Mark Stoops, is 3-6 overall and 1-6 in the SEC. Despite the poor conference record, Kentucky does have an upset win over Ole Miss and a close loss to Georgia before playing more disappointing football in recent weeks. Kentucky hosts Murray State this weekend.
The two schools have only played once before — in the 1951 season opener, No. 6 Texas beat Kentucky 7-6.
The Wildcats come to Austin as the seventh and final regular-season opponent at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium.
