Kentucky reveals uniform combo for Saturday’s game at Ole Miss

No. 7 Kentucky has a big game on Saturday, facing No. 14 Ole Miss in Oxford.

While the Rebels are breaking out a special helmet to go with their powder blue jerseys and white pants, the Wildcats are keeping it simple. Mark Stoops’ squad will sport white-on-white-on-white for the top-15 road clash.

Chris Rodriguez, set to make his 2022 debut after a 4-game suspension, is featured in the social media uniform combo reveal.

Last season, Rodriguez rushed for 1,379 yards, fifth on UK’s single-season list, and 9 touchdowns. Rodriguez has 2,740 career rushing yards, sixth-best all-time at Kentucky. Rodriguez rushed for 100 yards 9 times in 2021, a new single-season school record.

In Rodriguez’s absence, Kentucky managed to get off to a 4-0 start, including a 26-16 win on the road over a Florida team that was ranked at the time.

Kentucky and Ole Miss kick off at noon ET/11 a.m. CT. The game will air on ESPN.
