being one year and 2 days out of a widowmaker heart attack on Gameday and being at the game - THIS BETTER NOT BE IT!!!
I said UK 38 USM 24 on Old Red's weekly prediction contest, so I'll stick with it.
1 way or the other, bluecomet's prediction will probably be close to the actual score. This game shapes up as a shootout because neither defense has what it will take to stop the opponent's offense. A big turnover could determine the outcome, or it might just be a matter of which team gets the last possession at the end of the 4th quarter.
-USM is primarily a passing offense...pretty sure they lost a couple of rb's. Our secondary is very good...no shootout.
-UK will run the hell out of the ball...usm stacks the box and juice and cj go off in the 2nd half.
-4 td's rushing, 2 passing and either def/st get one as well. One fg after baker drops a pass in the endzone.
-USM puts up 10 in the 1st half...and adds a td in garbage time.

Yes, please. There should not be any other gameplan. But, after seeing what I saw last year, I have lost faith in OC's doing what is logical and effective.
34-24 Cats. Boom Williams shines. Barker will have stretches of brilliance but will make a mistake or 2. One INT. He'll hold onto the ball too long and fumble one time. But bounces back and leads the cats to a win in a faster-paced game. He'll make a couple plays with his legs too. He's underrated as far as an athlete goes.
Interesting predictions but obviously some have no knowledge of Southern Miss QB nor running backs. Very concerned about Kentucky's running game, not so much the passing game as we're strong at LB and backs and your QB has limited experience. Your defense blitzing an experienced 4 year starter at QB is high risk but will be interesting to see how that plays out. We do have some receivers with speed which makes it tough when blitz puts you in man to man coverage. Should be a good game but closer than some here have predicted.
I believe that we have not beat an SEC team since Alabama in 2000 so I know it will be a tremendous challenge. UK has the size and talent advantage but I think we get a turnover or two and pull it out. I think our program is turning a corner. USM 34 UK 28
