2. First big road test for Kentucky

Kentucky has had the luxury of not having to play a lot of tough games away from Lexington. The atmosphere in Athens this weekend is going to be unlike anything that the Wildcats have seen this season and that could cause some issues for them.

Athens is one of the toughest places to play in the country and that is going to make life tough, especially for the Kentucky offense. In college football, it has been shown time and again that some players and quarterbacks play very differently when they are on the road than when they are at home.

How Kentucky starts is going to be a huge way to tell how this game might go. The Wildcats need a fast start to offset the crowd in Athens this Saturday. If they start slow, it is going to be a long afternoon in Athens.
