The Kentucky Wildcats are coming off their second bye week of the season and have a tune-up game against Murray State. It may end up being a get-healthy game as this team has been decimated with injuries in the last few weeks. There have even been indications that head coach Mark Stoops may run out true freshman quarterback Cutter Boley as the starter, especially if Brock Vandagriff needs another week to recover from his head injury.
The problem with this game is that it's one of Kentucky fans' least favorite parts of the basketball season (and I guess now football season) so far. This is a streaming-only game, which means you can't watch it on a regular TV channel. It is only available on SEC Network+ or ESPN+.
How can I watch the game?
Who: Murray State
When: 1:30 pm EST
Where: Kroger Field, Lexington, Kentucky
TV: SEC Network+ or ESPN+
The problem with streaming only games is that you have to have access to the internet. You can stream them on your phone, tablet, or even TV with streaming devices like Amazon Fire stick, Roku, or something similar.

This guide will help you through the steps of getting this setup on your TV, phone, tablet, or whatever. The good news is that for both basketball and football, we are running out of stream-only games. However, we will see them return again next season. For football, this is the final one. For basketball, there are a few more left, but once the regular season gets under way with more prolific matchups and an SEC schedule, they disappear.
