Kentucky football is now tied for first place in the SEC under first-year head coach Will Stein.
The Wildcats are currently 6-1 on the season and are preparing for a matchup against Vanderbilt at Kroger Field Saturday night.
Kentucky, which is currently 4-1 in the SEC, will host the Commodores, who are 3-4 overall and 0-4 in league play.
Stein challenged Kentucky fans to raise the energy at Kroger Field, referencing the crowd's enthusiasm during the Wildcats' Oct. 10 victory over then-No. 10 LSU, which ended with fans storming the field.
"You know, I thought we had an unbelievable crowd here at home against LSU. They set the standard," Stein said. "Now it's time to exceed that standard and be even better. We ask our players and our coaches to grow every single week and improve. Now as our fans grow and improve and make this experience even better for our team and be even louder."
Kentucky last faced off against the Commodores in November, when No. 14 Vanderbilt beat the Wildcats 45-17 in Nashville.
Now, Kentucky is looking to bring a win back home itself.
The Wildcats' last home win over Vanderbilt at Kroger Field came in 2020.
Saturday night's game will kick off at 7:30 p.m.
