Carolina learns start time for Kentucky game

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WOLO) – Kickoff time has been announced for South Carolina’s week five road trip to Lexington, where the Gamecocks will look to snap a four-game losing streak to Kentucky.

USC and UK will play under the lights at Kroger Field for a 7:30 p.m. start time, announced by the Southeastern Conference. The game will air on SEC Network.

The Gamecocks lead the all-time series with Kentucky by a 17-11-1 margin. Carolina won 13 of 14 meetings between 2000 and 2013, including 10-straight from 2000-2009, but the Wildcats have won each of the last four contests, including a 23-13 victory in Columbia last season.
