"There's certainly been less "hype" and marketing for this spring game than any time since Joker's final yr."

Agree. Guess everyone is in "Missouri" mode.

I've seen it marketed on Twitter and IG quite a bit. Maybe less than the first two years but it's definitey been out there

Nope i think "Who has the most yards on the ground?" is King and "Longest play from scrimmage ? is Juice
Of course - I am an out of the box type of guy
Question 2 was yards on the ground and you answered Juice at 2. I was wondering if there was a wrinkle to get Juice some handoffs lol

Was wondering why no mention of Boom on questions 2 and 3, then I found this:

Boom Williams on Sitting out Spring
Boom Williams has not participated in contact drills this spring.

This team is a victim of last year's results. The UofL collapse finished off a lot of fans enthusiasm for this program. The die hard UK football fans will always be pumped up and go to this game, buy season tickets, predict 9+ wins, but the general fanbase is in a show me mode now and I think it is fair to say the recruits and even some commits will be as well. The initial buzz Stoops created has all but worn off and I just do not think there is a lot of enthusiasm outside of Nutter right now. I do think it can be an advantage because there is not much pressure and hype on these players right now (a lot of pressure on Stoops though) like it has been in the past few seasons and if things go right UK could sneak up on some teams this season and the general fan enthusiasm will build again.

Whether you see the glass half full or half empty there is no denying the past few season collapses and missed opportunities has emotionally drained this fanbase again and will take some big wins this season to get back. The schedule is tough. Stoops has his work cut out for him.

I am not here to disagree, but I truly wish that people would have realistic expectations for Stoops. When he took over this program the former coach had recruited players that could not play in the Sunbelt Conference. I do not believe that the majority of the fan base has any idea how truly bad this team was under Joker. We need to support Stoops and his current staff until they get the new practice facility up and running. I know it is hard to hear, but we need to be patient. Hell, I have nothing better to do. I have been waiting since Charlie Bradshaw's thin thirty.

Good lord, I hope Barker throws for the most yards since he's leading the #1 Offense vs the #2 Defense.

If Johnson comes out and shreds the Ones all hell is going to break out in BBN.
