UK football to open on a Thursday night

It’s been known for a good bit that the Cats would open the season in Nashville against their favorite cousin from Bowling Green, but the date was finally set yesterday for Thursday, September 1st. The weekday debut of Operation: Win 2.0 will take place at LP Field and was bumped to Thursday due to Tennessee State’s game with the Southern Jaguars. This could give the Cats some flexibility for picking up some better TV coverage, but it’s really going to mess with Drew Franklin’s drinking schedule.

Awwwwww Drew can pick up a beer anytime
This has been known for 3 weeks
Bad news for a bad idea. Crowd will be even smaller now. I’m betting no more than 50,000 (if that) show up to this game!
GO CATS!!!!!! Should be fun!!!!!! Party in the music city!!!!! GO CATS!!!!!!
What are we? Louisville?
Party at my house!
7- really? address needed. do we need to bring our own bail money? or will there be a bail bondsmen available? Oh, don’t worry, I’ll bring the girls. you don’t mind if they have a nose candy problem do you?

My guess is it will be a good event for UK fans in Western Kentucky or the southern part of the state. So, it is a great idea from that standpoint. That said, I don’t think too many people will travel from Central Kentucky to see us play WKU on a weeknight in a game that should be nationally televised. Even for me, this one is going to be hard to justify.
4 & 10 – I don’t know, I’ll probably be taking Friday off and spending a 4 day weekend in CATSville, Tn!
Drew Franklin is such a lush!! If he got off of his parents couch than maybe he could afford to booze it up at his own place.
TANNER SIEWART FTW (guy on the far right). That’s hilarious, I went to high school with that guy.
The girl in the jorts is easy on the eyes
Fans in western Kentucky are looking forward to this. Sorry some of you other fans aren’t.
c-bo marino with the shoulder lean!
Did Vaught start working for KSR? This was on our schedule over a month ago.
We must have taken an on-line course from UL in how to be a $2 hooker. I think Prof. Turtleneck does some of the video lectures.
Is that Dakotah Euton on the left?
That’s not dakotah, that’s my brother Jordan and my Hispanic friend Antonio, me and Jordan are from Lagrange and I’m for sure framing this this. This pic is awesome. My big brother is famous!! You too Antonio. Fedex crew..

Who’s the cute little man second from the left? I wanna just pinch his little cheeks:)
I know who that kid second from the left is. But he really can’t speak English. Sorry ladies
