What channel is Southern Miss football vs Kentucky on today? Time, TV schedule for Week 1 game
Southern Miss football opens the season as an underdog at Kentucky on Saturday at Kroger Field.
The Golden Eagles have a retooled roster in a key season for coach Will Hall. Southern Miss' quarterback situation will be a fascinating development throughout the game on Saturday, as Tate Rodemaker and Ethan Crawford are listed as co-starters at starting QB on the recently released depth chart.
Kentucky could be a darkhorse CFP team or simply a member of the SEC's middle class. Either way, it'll take a big effort for Southern Miss to compete for a victory on Saturday night against a much more talented roster than the one the program faced in the 2016 upset.

Reminder, Southern Miss was supposed to play this Week 1 game at Ohio State. Instead, Akron plays at Ohio State and is about a 50-point underdog. Kentucky is a much more beatable team and Southern Miss should be able to put up a fight for at least two quarters, but I have concerns about Southern Miss’ offensive line in this matchup.
