The non-conference schedule brings Big Blue Nation home matchups against Toledo, Eastern Michigan and Tennessee Tech, as well as a short trip down I-64 to play Louisville in the annual Governor's Cup.
The SEC portion of the schedule features the same teams Kentucky faced in 2024, with the only difference being which games are at home and which games are on the road. For example, Kentucky traveled to Ole Miss, Texas, Tennessee and Florida in 2024; those teams will play the Cats in Lexington in 2025.
Kentucky went 4-8 in 2024, ending the program's bowl-game streak which had spanned eight seasons.
