I know this isn’t as obvious to other fan bases. But the dude, and Vince Marrow, have basically adopted Kentucky as their home. Stoops has his own bourbon company for god sackes. I seriously doubt stoops ever leaves, except for the top 3-4 jobs in cfb, even then I dont think he does.

The article saying it’s been a decade since Drew Barker both blew my mind and gave me joint pain… thanks for that.

To be fair I don’t think we should put the Florida int on him or the 1st pick on Saturday, completely, on him. We want him to not be scared to sling it and honestly if our wr keep playing like they are then it hasn’t mattered. We’ve left probably 30 some odd points this season, 14 against UF and 21 against Youngstown, that were more on the running game than on Will. Once we solidify our o-line, probably only Georgia could beat us. Tennessee, I’ll never say we’ll beat them, because even when we’re better we still loose. But that game is very much a toss up and I think UT fans would agree.

Yeah, a lot of UK fans are heading down. Was really hoping for a night game but money trumps all…even when it’s 2 really good teams on.

*Wins

Personally I think UK wind either way, not guaranteed by any means. But night games are always more fun both on TV and in stadium.

It should be the CBS game but I fell both UK and Ole Miss are probably used to playing second fiddle to a recently lack luster LSU and Auburn teams.

Guys I don’t think this should be seen as an insult, hopefully this guy didn’t mean it that way although he probably did. One thing UK had in common with SEC schools as this shows, we went through coaches like crazy. Never any consistency and often those coaches left the job worse than before. We found one and we’re patient enough, he gave us positive signs to trust him, to stick with him one more year. He went 7-5 and now there’s a good chance to go back to back 10 wins. That’s the difference consistency and continuation makes IF you find your guy. Just based off of this list alone, Kentucky wasn’t far off from a lot of programs winningest coaches anyways. Stoops has a chance to be our first to 100.

Also kudos for proper paragraph spacing. I should’ve done that.

I really don’t think we’d have tired out. Despite being down you still ran it plenty. We have way to much depth of talent now to exhaust like y’all’s defense did. Not to mention we were playing keep away, making sure our d stayed rested. Levi’s was able to pass because he was more experienced and we have better receivers and tight ends. You guys are good and I take noting away from y’all but we controlled the second half for a reason. We were better coached, more developed talent, more depth of talent, and the better players on both sides batting a couple players here and there. Mullen did a number on y’all, and you’ll get it fixed. We just won’t be the same Kentucky from 2008 and 2009. Not to mention our success has given us more talent on the recruiting trail. It should be alot more fun moving forward.

I believe a lot of this but you guys lack serious depth. The article didn’t state it but UK started to run it down y’all’s throat pretty well in the second half. We didn’t pass the ball because we didn’t need too. We knew out improved secondary and defensive line we’re doing what they were doing. Shutting your O down because we were more disciplined and had the depth to do what Utah couldn’t. Put pass defense isn’t the wekness it was last year, despite what the writer says. AR had a handful of good throws go incomplete because our DBs forced it. Even when he did complete a pass it didn’t go much because we again played disciplined. To end this, y’all will be fine. I like Napier but the UK v UF game will be a big game for both teams for the forceable future. It will probably be we win at our home you win at yours. The only worrying thing I have for y’all is our O wasn’t at peak performance, without C-rod, and y’all’s was for the most part. So you need to find a way to complete passes against competent defenses. I think you’ll eventually find it but time will tell.

This is pretty true. UK may not have sacked him a lot but it was more so we weren’t going to let him beat us like Utah did. I said it before the game and I’ll say it after since it’s much more evident. UK was and is a better team than Utah. More physical, SEC physical, and more disciplined. We’re also much more faster than Utah was so the head full of times he got out of the pocket we chased him down. He’ll eventually be fine but he’s got to get better at passing. He had a couple opportunities to tie the game or make a good play down field. He either missed or didn’t see it, fortunately for my team, but his online didn’t give much help because we played disciplined physical ball. Utah clearly wasn’t the team they were last year.

To piggy back off of the UF fan, 1st half was abysmal but we cleaned it up a lot the 2nd half. Where our previous o-line coach failed to was he didn’t rotate players. Unlike Jon Schlarman, who passed away in 2020, every o-line man by the end of the year had in game experience which helps to have consistent o-lines. Our previous coach didn’t and it shows. What encourages me is the second half was ALOT better and we have 2 cupcakes to really Iron it out before we play SEC competition so we’ll be okay.

Excuse the typos, using this website on phone is annoying sometimes.

We’re better than Utah in Newley every way. While I don’t know if we’ll fix every problem with our O line I do think it wasn’t because we were out played. Remember even with the problems Levi’s still threw for 300 and 3 td. Utah isn’t the Utah from last year, they’re missing a lot of production from that team. Not taking anything from y’all though, it’ll be a good game either way but we’re better than Utah and have better athletes at receiver.

Kentucky is better than Utah and we’ll prove it this weekend. That Utah team was not the one in the rose bowl last year and they missed the lion share of their production from it. If I’m wrong, I’ll be right back in these comment. But historically we, under Stoops, don’t play our first games well but improve a lot in game 2. That’ll happen again and we’ll win by 10. It will be close either way.

I think the problem is for both our teams is that we’re good enough that UGA has to play an A game or risk loosing it or it being really close. Basically we’re both to good to be overlooked. USC and Mizzou can still lose with UGA playing B or C+ level ball, unless both come out really good this season.

Forgive me, you all won 8 last year. Well done, do it again when every school is improved that beat you in your miraculous year.

I love USC fans man, none more delusional barring some Tennessee fans. Every year you make the argument you’d beat Kentucky to be disappointed every year. We’ll have a punchers chance against UT and UGA; you guys just try to win 7 games and then we’ll talk about it.

I believe Texas state was a decent power 5 defense; although record doesn’t show it. This is probably more of a quality depth guy to help plug holes. He could start this year but he may stay for 2 years. 1 for development to SEC level and 2 for maybe starting. He could shock us though like it’s believed the d2 transfer could. But this is much more for development being that it feels our coaches are happy with the players we have already.

We aren’t going any where either. Should be fun to see the recruiting battles between UT and UK moving forward. We used to keep to Ohio and any where north of us. Now that we have established some since of a winning culture we can start to go south for real players not just the ones that either the rest of the SEC slept on or didn’t want. Either way I’m hear for it!

We’d probably have faired better than y’all against them considering we’ve beat you all 6 of the last 7. Especially this year considering this was their down year and supposedly you all were on the up and up. You’ll get all the medias love this year again and we’ll beat y’all again. Like clock work.

While 2005 was the first season I really remember, I was 6, 2007 was when my College football fandom was born and became a true UK football fan. Such an awesome year across the board. Wish CFB could have another season like that.

First of all, don’t put UK with those programs any more. UF is one thing but look what UK has done in recent years to those other schools. 6 of last 7 vs USC, 6 of last 7 vs Mizzou, Vandy being Vandy. We’ve broke even with UF also so don’t be rude.

It’s not delusional to say, I genuinely doubt it.

Recruits in Tennessee clearly feel like we haven’t plateaued. Just ask our top 15 class that includes a few your states top 15 players. Recruiting is what breaks those ceilings. Plus a revamped offense with a good QB does wonders. I’d agree with you if we hadn’t made the offensive change.

We do, I a first year offense and missing spring ball he’s thrown more TDs and yard than any other QB. Don’t get me wrong though, it’s one thing to do that this year. Don’t do it next.

Lol

I’d also add that I doubt UK gets that 4/5 star wr is stoops isn’t staying.

Also Bryant was at one point on record stating that if he could’ve he would’ve stayed at Kentucky. He felt slighted because he was told by the administration that Rupp was gone for violations. That didn’t happen and Bryant was gone because he wanted to make football the main sport at Kentucky.
