Let's enjoy the win, without all the hate. Man, I will take a win anytime I can get it, even if it's against the "Little Sisters of the Poor." I have watched a lot more losses at UK then I have wins, so I cherish EVERY WIN, since their few and far between. I'm one of the "Old Farts" who keep hoping we will win enough games to get to a bowl, or the coach will turn out to be the "Chosen One."
I know it was against the "Little Sisters of the Poor", but we had a QB who I thought looked good. No interceptions, 18 of 23, for 300 yards, good job reading the defense, showed a lot of poise when under pressure,and was able to pick up some yards when the line broke down. Very little negative yards from sacks on Johnson.
Our RB's looked great, and run with a lot of authority. something we hadn't seen a lot of this year. Until we get a better OLine, we need a QB who can scramble, and not set in the pocket, and your probably thinking, What pocket? It doesn't appear to me that Barker is that QB.
From the looks, and scores of the other teams in the SEC East, it does not appear there are any teams that we can't beat, if we shore up our defense. No team is standing out as being great, even Tennessee. I think stopping the run will be the big problem, just as it was yesterday. Stoops is supposed to be the magician of defense, but so far he hasn't proven it. I hope he can fix it, but the next game will tell a lot. If he does not get six wins, he needs to be gone, so the next coach has some good talent to work with.
OLD STOLL FIELD GUY!
