UK has a better shot at beating the Jaguars, now 0-3 in the league.:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Hoping for a game where guys bond and become better in their roles....no injuries, please!

UK - 13
Bama - 49

Could be a bit closer if Saban has a brain fart and lets Kiffin call the shots on offense. If they come out throwing, we stand a chance of keeping it close (within 21), if they line up and run run run...it's gonna be ugly in the second half.

0% this is going to be brutal. All we can hope for is for someone not to get hurt. We do not want to come out of the game beat to a pulp. I am afraid we will.

I doubt UK scores in the game and Bama names their score. I hate that this game is on the schedule next after getting a little momentum the last six quarters.

Bama 48-10....Stoops and Co will "try and establish the run" against UA but that's foolish. Their DL will destroy those 1st/2nd down run plays to Boom and Snell. I'd like to see us throw quick hitters early on and try and cross them up....pass to set up the run. But they won't do that. This will be a Florida replay.

Same chances as me waking up to this in the morning instead of my wife.

they need not worry about the spread, and just try to keep Johnson healthy. Maybe run the wildcat with 3rd and 4th string players. Rest the starters for Vandy.

Maybe if we let the defense know that Saban we don't belong in the SEC then they'll be angry and ready to play. :sunglasses:

About the same chance that a meteor that no one saw coming, hits the earth tomorrow and destroys the state of Alabama. Hey, does that mean we would win because they failed to show up for the game. Score: Meteor 1, Alabama 0.

We probably get shut out but 7 is our upside and Bama can name the score. Bama D is better than Florida's and we know how that turned out. Our only hope is Bama is looking ahead and we only lose by 28.

I just hope the coaches don't agree at halftime to cut the 3rd and 4th quarters to 10 minutes to minimize the embarrassment.

What do you think ?

They beat WKU by 4 TDs and we are probably 1 or 2 TDs better than WKU.

I think Alabama is legit. They always are, but it would be interested if we surprised a lot of critics and somehow stayed close with them. You never know.
I think we keep it close until the coin toss.

Bad when fan's just want the game to be over with and no one get's hurt. Maybe we get the "Mercy Rule" and just walk away.

If keeping it close is 5 scores then yes, there's a chance we keep it close.

We don't go to Tuscaloosa looking for a win. We go hoping not to lose half our team to injury, our loftiest wish to preserve a shred of dignity.

The lot of us would be elated to lose by only 4 touchdowns. It's pathetic if you think about it. Kentucky football y'all!

Who is going to put up more points on us? BAMA or UL? I SAY UL cause Bobby will run up score Bama is going to score alot but not going to purposely run it up. We just will not be able to stop Bama. They could run the Ball every play not even pass and put 42 up on us without even thinking about it.

Alabama will score at least 50 points if Saban doesn't call off the dogs. Suddenly our defense is all world after the South Carolina game, it ain't. Their offensive line will push our line around like a pop warner team. To keep this game relatively close,Alabama would have to be totally disinterested.

The fact that Saban said we dont belong in the SEC....to me means he is gonna wanna prove that next weekend. I think we lose by 30 plus

So I say 0% chance we upset them and about 5% chance we stay within 30

When did he say that? Do you have a link?

Chance to Beat Them? 20%
but If our defense plays like they did vs SC with heart and passion. I see us playing them close.

Alabama 31
Kentucky 17

Zero. Just keeping it competitive at the half would be a moral victory. I'm more fearing something like 28-0 after the first quarter. We have about as much chance as I do winning the lottery, and I don't play the lottery.

Personally if this game is out of reach by halftime, I'd like to see the 2's & 3's get the work! We have to get Kash some experience so he can play at some point this year. But I'm afraid if Stoops did that the fans would bash him for admitting defeat!

Let's just not show....would be like a voluntary bye week before Vandy and then another before MS ST
