Kentucky is getting some respect from other college football coaches.
The Wildcats (1-0) earned 40 points in the Coaches Poll this week following Saturday’s win over Toledo. UK is just outside the top 25 at No. 29 in the updated poll.
The Cats aren’t receiving as much (or any) love from members of the Wildcats.
Kentucky was completely shut out of the new AP Top 25 and didn’t earn a single vote.
