The horse is dead already.
Yes, absolutely. It's getting quite annoying. We haven't been to a bowl game in years, so we have to come up with "we could have had so and so coach" (as if they'd do the same thing here at Kentucky - in the SEC - as they're doing in their locations.
Everybody wants to win, period. But when we win, we find ways to discount it and for some, it's never good enough. I like to try and find the positives in life. We're very likely going bowling after:
Losing to USM
Getting demolished by Florida
Losing several KEY defensive players (Tubman, Hatcher, Meant) as well as very young talent)
New OC
Back up quarterback with limited passing ability.....
(I've posted these items in other threads, but still relevant to this one)
And we're going bowling....
Man, this thread (and board at times) is a cesspool of people who just want to be miserable. This team isn't as good as we want it to be, but is better than it was at the start of the season. We lost one game we weren't supposed to lose and won a couple we weren't supposed to win (based on Vegas odds). We have put out a dumpster fire and managed to do enough to get to a bowl game (assuming we win Sat, which I think is a safe prediction).
I don't care what other teams are doing. At the beginning of the year many people wanted us to beat the lower-half of the SEC and get to a bowl game. We did exactly that. We beat the teams we need to beat in order to move up the ladder and we lost to the teams that are more talented than us. I'm not happy we are only going 6-6, but I can take a step back and realize that this team had some major hurdles after the rough start and chose to fight and get better as oppose to lay down and quit. Because of that we will likely be playing a 13th game after Christmas and I'm looking forward to going.
Yes sir.
