When I look at our team on the field, they look like a SEC team.... They're big, and they line up correctly... I see their players shooting around all over the backfield.. I see a line that can line up and run it down the throat of a good defense... A defense that looks like a defense.... I don't see many mistakes, like off sides, or stupid penalties... That shows discipline from a fairly young team... I see players that actually know how to line up and play defense, whether it's Zone, man to man, or what ever... I see BIG linemen on each side of the ball.. I see a coach that is in control... He may not always go with what I would call, ;) but he keeps us in the game to the last minute against good teams..... I see players getting better each and every game... Players believe in him and I'm believing more and more in Stoops...

I agree on all these points about the program he is building. The biggest Stoops shortcoming is in-game coaching. This has to improve for us to take the next step. This program is beginning to get the talent and depth to compete and I give him credit for that, but we have to start winning these big opportunity games and the game-coaching has to improve for us to do that.

I saw Kentucky defensive players teaching Chubb a lesson as old as the SEC . . . . You can't go wide on a good SEC defense.

Hell, we lost a rock 'em/sock 'em SEC game, but how many tackles for loss did we have on Chubb and Co.?

We have a monster named Jordan Jones...the dude rules his zone so don't approach it
