What channel is Kentucky vs. Missouri on today? Time, TV schedule for Wildcats' Week 7 game
No. 23 Kentucky will look to rebound from its first loss of the 2023 college football season on Saturday when it takes on a similarly stung, 25th-ranked Missouri team at Kroger Field in Lexington.
Had a pair of results last Saturday gone differently, this would have been an even more compelling and nationally relevant matchup: Both the Wildcats and Tigers were 5-0 heading into their games against No. 1 Georgia and No. 20 LSU, respectively. But both teams lost, with each falling three places in the US LBM Coaches Poll.

In its 51-13 loss at Georgia, Kentucky (5-1, 2-1 SEC play) was outgained by a 608-183 margin and was held to just 3.66 yards per play. Running back Ray Davis was limited to 59 rushing yards and a season-worst 3.9 yards per carry while quarterback Devin Leary struggled, completing only 10 of his 26 passes for 128 yards, though he did throw a pair of touchdowns. It was the Wildcats' most lopsided loss of the past three seasons, tied in margin of defeat with a 44-6 defeat last season against Tennessee.
Missouri will be the third ranked opponent in as many weeks for Kentucky, a streak that could extend to four next week when it squares off against No. 17 Tennessee. In Missouri's 49-39 loss to LSU, quarterback Brady Cook threw for 411 yards while his offense Missouri gained 527 yards as a team.
Kentucky leads the all-time series between the SEC East foes from (barely) bordering states, 9-4, and has won seven of the past eight matchups dating back to 2015. Here's everything you need to know about the game, including time, date, TV and streaming info, and more:
