What has Kentucky done this year that is remotely impressive?

Lost to UF, albeit in a fairly close game. Lost to MSU. Beaten soundly by USC. Didn't score vs UGA. Nearly lost to atrocious Arkansas. Had a nice win vs Mizzou, but Mizzou is ass, as they lost to Wyoming and Vandy.

Seems like they've had one good year under Stoops and that was it. And they still managed to lose to our 5-7 squad.

It's Kentucky Football. They are still on track to win 7 games even if we beat them. That's a great year for Kentucky Football.

No way FSU and Stoops make that announcement before Saturday. That would mess UK up the rest of the year unless Stoops is just ready to leave and doesn't care. I mean most coaches try to keep it quiet until the end of the season even though everyone knows they are gone. lol

I agree it is a good job...I just don't like the constant putdowns of Tennessee to make that point.

Do we not get enough of that condecending garbage from the media and other schools fans? Why do we have so many of our fans that want to put us down too?

I'm not sure how those who constantly denigrate the team call themselves fans. Criticism is one thing, but constantly putting the team you say you support down, that doesn't sound like fanhood, does it?

Fun place to watch a road win, but @jackcrevol is telling you right: include gloves in the wrap or you'll be buying hot chocolates for hand warmers (that's how we did it). Enjoy the brown grass! They will go nuts when they introduce the seniors. Hopefully, we shut them up fast. We had blast. You'll love it!

KY got a bye week and we are a little banged up; that's their only hope. I do not see a one dimensional offense doing much against us the way our defense is playing right now. Bowden is a good player for sure. But MSU came in here, who by the way beat KY 28-13, and they could not move the ball against us at all in the run game. Hill, who led the conference in rushing at the time and had ran for 120 yards against KY was held to 13 yards against us. SC was also a good running team and they ran for a measly 78 yards against us. If all you can do is run the football with no passing threat, good luck against us with the way that we are playing right now. They cannot pass at all. They passed for 63 yards against Mizzou, 88 yards against Arkansas, and 35 yards against GA.

Oh, and as far as KY's defense goes... they're giving up 5 ypc in the rushing game right now. SC rushed for 247 yards against them. Arkansas, who is the worst team in football, ran for 183 yards against them. We may not be a juggernaut at running the football, but we'll be able to run against them. And if they stack the box, there's no way they're covering JJ and Callaway at receiver. We will be able to run the ball and set up play action and we will score on them with big plays.

Their only hope on Saturday is that Maurer is unavailable and we get BYU JG. That's their only hope imo. I think we beat them something like 28-7. If Maurer plays the full game it'll be more like 38-7

Would like to see a stronger recruiter at FSU but since he's only going against Mullen, Leach could probably do a little damage.

Stoops is a good coach, I would rather the news break like on Friday. Given a week, he'll probably pull off some miracle win one for the Gipper speech.

Works if he’s diagnosed with ALS...not so much for “love you losers, but I’m leaving Florida way!”

These things always finish with near impossible odds to give perspective for the other odds. It’s not realistic, just window dressing

Oh I use hand warmers for cold games. Hand warmers in shoes keep the toes feeling good too
