Kentucky fans are in a state of bliss. The Wildcats have started their much anticipated basketball season, and the Wildcats football team is going bowling for the third year in a row.

Yes, you heard correctly. The Kentucky Wildcats are going bowling for the third year in a row. For the first time since the Paul "Bear" Bryant era, the Cats are going to back-to-back-to-back bowl games.

Coming off a tough 14-13 victory at Starkville against the Mississippi State Bulldogs, the Cats are now 6-3 on the year, with three games remaining on the regular season schedule.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Coming up next on Nov. 8 are the Georgia Bulldogs. Georgia is pissed off after getting absolutely thumped by the Florida Gators (who also thumped the Wildcats). Georgia features a very talented squad, which many people predicted to win the BCS title early in the season.

Kentucky will need to come out blazing on all cylinders to stay in the game with Knowshon Moreno and the Bulldogs. Georgia is coming into Lexington looking for some revenge. The last time UGA made the trip to Lexington, in 2006, they left in defeat. They will also be looking to prove themselves after the spanking that the Gators put on them last Saturday.

My prediction: UGA 27, UK 10

On Nov. 15, the Vanderbilt Commodores make the trip north from Nashville to Lexington to take on the Cats.

Vanderbilt started off the season blazing. The Dores started the season going 5-0, including an ESPN GameDay prime time win over Auburn.

But lately, Vandy has fallen off the radar. The Commodores have lost three straight games to Mississippi St., Georgia, and a surprising loss to Duke.

I see the Cats having no trouble beating the Commodores.

My prediction: UK 24, Vandy 14
