From what I’ve seen the first two games, Pitt is definitely better than Florida and probably would say they’re better than UK right now as well.

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but Pitt was lucky to beat WVU who lost at home today to Kansas. So, there’s that.

Interesting Pravda is deleting the evidence of the safety. That was the best angle. Also you could see how incredibly late the ref decided to the throw the flag.

I'm telling you. The flag was for intentional grounding. And then all the refs simultaneously had some sort of mass psychosis event and started speaking nonsense.

Imagine being the 12th ranked team in the country with a QB hyped as the next Cam Newton and losing at HOME to Kentucky.

He tried to say that after Bama and Georgia the rest of the conference wasn't that great. I mean, yeah, we have Vandy and Mizzou, but the rest of the teams are generally somewhat competitive. We would own the Big 12.

They try this all the time then give SEC teams higher ranked teams to play in the bowls, and we usually still win the most of them.

Been at a friend's house...yes, I have friends...so this is my first chance to say lol at TAMU, Notre Dame, Wisconsin, and any other upsets that happened.

Nebraska...

Honestly... Sounds like something we'd be guilty of

I thought Baron had a nice day.

Slow start, Took him til the 2nd half to get going and then all the sudden he seemed to be in the backfield all night from then on. He had a good game.

I think he will move on after this season. He has Kentucky at a peak that isn’t sustainable long term. He has done a good job. He would be smart to take the money and hit the reset button next year.

Texas Tech tore their goal posts down for a win over... Houston?

 

[seaofORANGE22]

I will say. I am so happy to get out of there with a win. Impressive resume building win.

Had a chance to start the season this way last year and came up short. So this feels like a step forward.

Overall we look very similar to last years team early in the year on offense. We didnt really explode in a major way offensively really until after the UF game. By then we had been removed from the national radar.

I think we will continue to sharpen on that side of the ball.

Just keep improving. We get to do it while we're still in the hunt. We may even see some shuffling around on offense until clicks.

But its nice knowing if all else fails Hooker can chunk one up to Ced and trust him to go win the game.

Yeah I'm thinking of Nebraska could trade 5 years of Scott frost for 5 years of stoops... They'd do it in a heartbeat.

And Kentucky is bound to come back to earth

It struggled today, but that was against a very experienced DL. They definitely have to do better. Not sure what's up with Small. Wright's biggest problem seems to be holding on to the ball. They need to work the freshmen in.

I like Jaylen Wright... think he has looked good so far, except for the fumbles, of course. He gets that under control, and he could have a big year. He averaged over 5 yards a carry today, and is averaging over 6 yards a carry so far on the season; but, can't keep giving him the ball, if he can't hold onto it.

@HankHill called it after last season and er’one laughed at him….

Takes time. LB is hard to play in the SEC

If the camera zooms in on a praying BYU momma in the stands,Watch out! It’s all over for Baylor.

 

[HankHill]

UK is no offensive juggernaut and didn’t even need it tonight. Another reminder not to crown a team after 1 week. Looking at you, CFB media blowhards.

They are steady tho and don’t beat themselves. Well coached.

 

[HankHill]

Late to the party on this but here are my takeaways from today…

1. We should’ve beaten Pitt by 3+ touchdowns
2. The defensive front 7 came to play when it came to rushing the passer. We had 26 QB pressures which might be the most I’ve ever seen. Rush defense was also stout for the most part.
3. Aaron Beasley was a stud today.
4. Rush offense was almost non-existent today.
5. Hooker was off but made critical plays when it mattered.
6. Too many mistakes, including blocked punt and muffed punt.
7. Jeremy Banks needs to get on the jugs machine and work on his hands. He let two INT’s go through his hands today.

All in all a great win IMO. First win over a top 25 team on the road since Miami in 2003. We faced adversity from our own mistakes but still found a way to win. I think winning a close game when we made quite a few mistakes and it seemed like we tried to give them the game will only help them in the future.

Pitt is a good team. We’re not 3td better then them.

Disrespectful to Cam

Kudos to Stoops for turning Kentucky into a respectable program. Hard to do there. I have to believe he is happy in Lexington and will only leave for a few special places.

Good to see you around again. You still working for Baylor?
