Will Levis begins his Kentucky career vs. ULM today, as Kroger Field returns to full capacity for the 2021 season.

Levis, a transfer quarterback from Penn State, won the starting job after the first week of fall camp.

Before ever taking a snap for the Wildcats, Levis’ popularity started to grow, especially on social media. A TikTok video of Levis eating a banana with the peel intact surfaced in August, leading to the rest of the college football world learning Levis’ name.

Alyssa Lang and the SEC crew are in Lexington to cover the game. On Friday, Lang asked head coach Mark Stoops how many passing yards Levis will have to throw for, for him to eat an unpeeled banana. Stoops says the number is 400.
