I'm sorry. I dont care if we win 85-13
There is no reason to start like this... Unprepared, uninspired, I'm done with stoops for good. We need a real coach!!

The NCAA should have a rule that for a team to be bowl eligible, that not only must a team have six wins but also that team should at least resemble a bowl team in the way it plays, not this sloppy, uninspired hot mess that we;re seeing today.

Right now , this particular nonsense is not defensible. I don't even know what to say about it, to be honest.

I just want our football team to be competitive and play hard. I know we are a b-ball school in th SEC... Just be competitive and play hard, beat bad teams and spring an occasional upset.

I don't expect miracles, just stop being an embarrassment to our state and university!!

I think it was indefensible to not start Johnson. Clearly, he's in good enough shape to play.

The attitude that was clearly present in the decision to rest Johnson today is the same attitude this team has displayed in their play so far. Good, inspiring message sent by Stoops to his team.

Even our low information fans cannot defend this

They will find a way. They think they are somehow the "true" fans, when, in fact, they are part of the problem. Change is not a natural occurrence. By nature, people have to be motivated/prodded to change. When you keep supporting the same thing that isn't working, thinking it's just naturally going to change, you become part of the problem.

If we win this game, we should petition against going to a bowl game, and keep a .500 season because, we would more than likely lose the toilet bowl and have another losing season.

When you keep on doing what you always did... You get what you always got... Mike Leach time!!!

they could have game planned for UL since the Alabama game and it will not make any difference, Lamar will run through them like it's a deli with Swiss Cheese. Probably did game plan but no game planning is going to make up for a DL and Linebacking corp this woeful.

We're not playing well but there is zero margin for error with the fans that have complained all along . Nobody cares if you're done with Stoops or not because what is the result of your non support ? Absolutely nothing other than message board posts , if it makes you feel better then there is a personal benefit .

You and others of your ilk have a loser's mentality. Some people are tired of excuses and pathetic propping up of coaches who obviously are in over their head.

Anyone defending the way this team played for 22 minutes is beyond debate.

The fact that the head coach basically told the team that this game was in the bag before even kicking off is indefensible

Nick Saban or any other coach in college football would not have rested a single starter. Completely stoops(Id) and honesty disrespectful and bush league.

Be tired all you want , still no impact other than whining on a message board . It's too bad your ilk can't grasp the impediments that will likely keep UK from ever being what you want , in another quarter century you may come to a realization . Or maybe not

I am a Stoops supporter for 3 years. I just don't see the coaching acumen that UK needs. Petrino, Leach, Tom Herman, McIntyre, Narduzzi, Cutcliffe, UNC coach, just guys that make a difference as far recruiting the highest level which we don't or make up with their coaching prowess. just pedestrian names that have proven better coaches and choices for UK. I want to see UK beat a team that is better or equal. We have only beaten teams we are better than and many times like AP, Vanderbilt of 15, EKU of 15, UL games in last year and 14, UT game this year, UGA game, Auburn and Fla in 15, 14.
A great coach wins some of those game, a good coach at least wins a couple, an average coach which is what I think we have does what we have done. Break serve and beat up on bad teams, struggle against bad teams and survive against average to bad teams. Terrible DL and LBers.

Your way hasn't worked in 50 years. Maybe it's time for you mediocrity worshippers to stand down.

Team has been told all year how bad AP is, came out to a very cold, half full, at best empty stadium, on Senior day with the 3rd string qb. I can't believe they came out of the gate cold. Who would have think it.

I am much more concerned with how it ends, but you Keep,living your miserable life.
