We know we are literally at the beginning of the 2022 UK Football season, but ready or not, the 2023 schedule has been released.

And this isn’t just any regular lineup. For the first time since 2015, Alabama is coming to Kroger Field for the Wildcats’ final home game on Sat., Nov. 11, 2023. Next year’s Governors Cup Rivalry game will be played on the road in Louisville on Sat., Nov. 25.

Fun fact: UK Athletics is now accepting 2023 new season ticket deposits — current season ticket holders will automatically receive an invoice in February.
