We are 2-2 right now. Most thought we would be 3-1 and the trolls said 4-0. We are only 1 game off and the season is early. We have looked pretty good the last two games. Call me crazy but u think he might get to six wins this season.

The boys keep playing. The fans keep cheering. The game keeps playing. We keep keeping the faith.

I coming around if we look good tomorrow. Call me crazy but I think He can do it.

I hope he can.....I think the bye week is going to give them a much needed break to really make some more adjustments on defense......Hopefully they can win 3 in the stretch.....I'm pulling for'em!

What has been so good the last 2 weeks?... NMSU was pathetic besides the offensive stars who Stoops had benched. And last week we barely beat a trash USCjr team who Stoops has already proven he can beat...and about the only SEC team he consistantly seems to be able to beat. Its year 4. This is pathetic. Everyone outside UK football realizes he is a fool and would laugh at such a post. We lost to a CUSA team. And just beat a team who barely beat ECU and Vandy. Thats not impressive. At all....in year 1 I would buy the hype a little bit but now its just getting old.

If we go down to Bama and they stomp a mudhole in our arses look for this team to fold like a lawn chair the rest o the season.

However, if UK represents down thar and comes back with a moral victory or heaven forbid a W, then yes I think 6 wins is very attainable.

We won't bear Bama. I hope to keep it close going into the 4th and no injuries.

Stoops proves he can recruit and the win against USC shows he can beat SEC talent. We may not win 5 SEC games this season but if we can win 3 then that proves he has us moving forward. Hell, 2 wins in the SEC is equal to 5 in the B12 or acc.

He can't help he is developing a team in the hardest setting. To lose and grow is fine and that seems like what we are doing. Growth can be painful. Fight thru and grow.

I'm starting to have a lot more faith. Join me.

I'm still skeptical. I will reserve judgment until I see sustained improvement. A competitive game against Bama would be a step in the right direction for me. If they respond like they did against UF, I say they win two more games max.

Kentucky is the only program minus Vandy with this mindset.

I'm so glad Im a UK basketball fan and St. louis cardinal baseball fan. Without them I'd just be a loser with a woman's mentality.

The Stoops train is getting cranked up, better get your tickets before it leaves the station, three more years and three more beat downs to Louisville and he will get us to Shreveport, I can feel it in my bones. Those trolls that expect more than 4 wins can kiss it. They're probably Loserville fans anyways. It takes time guys.

Everyone keeps pointing out that this is year 4 under Stoops, but his first recruiting class that got
Together in a short period of time has yielded minimum results. I think there's like 5-6 players left from class. Hard to compete when you take over the roster he did and then have your first class yield
Minimum results.

Negatively? Lol well every college football fan, football analyst, football anything, knows we are bad and Stoops isnt worth a hoot. Its time our own fans realize that. You all are the ones in a fantasy land. Its sadddddd.

With our past? Winning two games is good for us no matter who or how we play. After Bama, it will be interesting to see where we are at.

What past? We didnt lose to the CUSA last year. We didnt beat USCjr any better at home this year. Whats been so much worse about the past 2 years compared to this year? Nothing. This team isnt better.

We started 5-1 almost 6-0 2 years back, now we are 2-2 yet we are doing good based on our past? Goodness me. Some must be season ticket holders trying to convince themselves their investment wasnt as painful as they think.

Yeah tell me the years that was so better? How about the early WKU losses two years in a row? I'll take two wins in a row over the losses. And remember no one said this team was better, you asked what was good about the past two weeks.

This slobbering about recruiting is a bit much. The famous 2014 class was made up of a lot of paper all americans and a few good players. There is no objective evidence outside of what the recruiting services feed us that we have better talent than Brooks did 7 years ago without all the fanfare and subscriptions to recruiting services. In the end who gives a crap if the recruiting rankings are good and the team is pitiful. We beat two really bad football teams. Call me when we beat a good team. Don't get me wrong. I have supported this program for decades but I need to see some real commitment before I am going to get worked up about this stuff.

Saban likes Stoops: we find the players, we recruit the players, and Bama signs the players.

Bama plays at UK next year? He would rather face Stoops.

Saban will keep the score down, 3th string the whole second half.

Sorry that I dont have a loser mentality and that I dont accept sad football. Your points keep getting shot down and now you have no reasons as to why Stoops is worth a dang so now you make desperate comments.

Its funny you brought up beating a wife. You remind me of a beaten wife who keeps going back to her husband (Stoops) and making excuses for why he will change next time and how the beatings arent quite as bad anymore. Its sad what UK football fans will put themselves through.

What's sad is you are a grown man acting like the world is coming to an end. Nobody likes whats going on but you're taking it to a level that's not healthy. Actually be a man and stop being a big baby, if you ever want to meet for coffee, I know people who could help you..

Can't do it for the following reasons.
First, USC does not have SEC talent. They admit as much.
Second, 2 wins in the SEC does not equate to more wins outside the SEC. We lost to So Miss. SEC affiliation, wear and tear, etc had nothing to do with us losing to them. There is ZERO indication we would post a winning record in any P5 conference.
Finally, I don't see the growth. This is year four....."losing & growing" are year 1 & 2 excuses.

To review the bidding,
Loss to a CUSA team with a HC and OC in their first game at our house.
Helpless, hapless, hopeless blowout loss to a pedestrian UF (struggled w/FCS UMASS).
Gave up 35 points in one half to one of the worst FBS teams in the nation.
Defeated an historically bad SC team.....barely.

Stoops won't admit it but he just wants to keep people from getting hurt this game.

For them to win anything from here on out, they do need to come out of this game without losing anyone. This team is so fragile that any lost starter is a major problem.

lots of people here seem to think we are gonna have a bunch of players in the hospital after this game! Our players aren't a bunch of little children, they aren't the athletes across the board that Bama has but they are big strong athletes on our team that are fully capable of taking care of themselves. There will probably be some injuries on both teams, not just ours.
