Looking forward to next Saturday, as i am every Saturday watching the cats play. Commonwealth this Saturday night first though.

I wish they wouldn't put these games in these time slots. The UK-Florida game had the lowest rating in 11 years for games in that time slot on CBS.

He won't... but Petrino will!!!

Speaking of Petrino and the subject of running the score up. One of my favorite Les Miles quotes of all time - and there are a million of them - came after LSU had scored a late touchdown in a blowout to give Petrino a little taste of his on medicine. Bobby was none to happy during the post-game hand shake.

They asked Miles after the game if Petrino had words for him. Les simply said "Not many".

Hell no, attending the games and supporting the team doesn't make anyone a problem but my first thoughts are...

Oh joy. Damien Harris gets a national stage to stick it to all those horrible fans who went after a teenager on twitter because he didn't stay home.

Can't wait for all the "Harris is from kentucky...." references...

"harris runs in for his 3rd TD in this first quarter...did you know he was from kentucky?"

later in the game...

"harris scores again and is nearing a single game rushing and scoring record...did you know he was from kentucky...boy bbn and cms really could use him..."

post game presser when DH comes back out on to the field with the gang...

"Damien, you just broke records...how does it feel to do this to your home state team?"

I wish they would change the game time to 3 AM. Most of the woman and children will be in bed by then so they wont have to watch that bloodbath.

Are we hoping for rain and lightning so the game is delayed until the last possible minute it can start. Perhaps at 11:59pm for the kickoff. Then delayed immediately after until about 1:38am. No one watches, Alabama falls asleep and we pull out the game of the century.

The only way we win is if Alabama plays all their walk ons

No. I'm going to the Alabama game with my 12 year old even though we won't be in CWS this season. This will be my 4th game at Bryant Denny Stadium but the first for my son. That and a weekend away together are why we're going.

I would enjoy going to an Alabama game one day in Tuscaloosa. That would be cool, so no I do not think you are a problem for going OP.

How nice of ESPN (and random) to pick this game to be on at night on their network. I guess it is a crappy week of options for them there.

I too will be at the game, first trip to Tuscaloosa ... is there a place for UK fans to gather before the game?

ESPN knows what they are doing. As UK takes a first half lead, America's viewers stay tuned in and don't switch to the Clemson game.

Brilliant!!!

There are a number of places on Paul Bryant Drive that runs right by the stadium. I've eaten at Buffalo Phil's a couple times. I won't be drinking this time but last time we hung out in the Houndstooth before the game. There's also an Irish Pub I forget the name of downtown which i think is only about a mile or so from the stadium. You won't have any trouble finding a place.

I'll be at Disney World. Hate that I'll miss Stoops' signature win.

I'll be at Kings Island that day/night. I really have no interest in watching Alabama destroy us like we're a middle school team.

I want Harris to walk straight to Stoops and give him the jack off Duck memo. I hope he rushes for 300. And I hope merrioman, gary, pepsi, blue whatevefry, Kozy, kiss MItch the ***** ***. We are a laughing stock.

Being part of problem comment was all sarcasm. Taking from the thread today that every who attends a game at commonwealth all year is the problem, and should have fan privilege revoked comment and thread

Don't miss any games in commmonwealth and catch 2-4 road games (4 this year except to mizzu ). Im a uk football junkie and a proud sunshine pumper. Root for my cats, and beleive they are going to win every week and be the game that they turn the corner.
