Fresh off its 20-13 upset of No. 10 Florida, Kentucky is ranked No. 16 in the latest AP Top 25 poll.

It's the first time this season that the Wildcats (5-0, 3-0 SEC) have been ranked by the AP.

Kentucky was one of five new teams entering the poll this week, thanks to its first win over Florida in Lexington since 1986.

The 2021 season has seen frequent movement in the rankings. Through the first five weeks of the season, 34 ranked teams have been defeated, the most in poll history.

Kentucky joins fellow SEC members Alabama (1), Georgia (2), Arkansas (13), Ole Miss (17), Auburn (18), and Florida (20) in the new poll.

The Cats return to action on Saturday at Kroger Field against LSU. The Tigers (3-2, 1-1 SEC) are coming off a 24-19 loss to Auburn.
