If UK keeps it within 21 of either UT or UL I'd be surprised. Who knows about UGA. I'm sure they will get healthy and Chubb will run for 250 on us or something knowing our luck.

I'd take one of the three if you could guarantee the one would be Louisville.
I don't expect it at all, but it would be nice to knock them out of a possible playoff spot if it came down to that.

We play UT on the road, and we're not beating Louisville, but okay. I'm starting to see the path to 6 wins, though. It all starts next Saturday. Win that, and start warming up your cars.

UL is SEVERELY overrated. Outside of the QB position and schedule. We're every bit as talented. They have a million times better coach, which does account for a lot. BUT, as I said, outside of the QB position I would take our roster of UL's and I'm very unbiased when it comes to sports. I'm not a big blue Homer with unrealistic expectations by any means, I just think that game is a lot more winnable than many believe.

Let's not get carried away. We started the season expecting to lose 4, win 4 and hopefully win another 2 or 3. The 3 teams named by the OP are 3 of the 4 we expected to lose to. After the first 3 games, most people were pretty down and thought we had no chance at a bowl or a winning season. However, the team has looked better the last 3 games and it started to look like a bowl could be back in our future. This weekend Miss St., UGA and UT all looked pretty bad. That gives us reason to believe that we can compete with any of the 3 but I would not go as far as to say we are going to win 2 out 3 against them.

Yeah, and I think we are more likely to see a continuation of the end of last year's UL/UK game. We shall see.

I'll take one out of three...but honestly, I kind of like the way we're improving...and some of those teams are looking a bit more beatable than what we previously thought. I still worry our QB play simply isn't good enough to get us over the hump.

You may not be a homer but you have a sever concussion & need medical attention.

Like going for it on 4th and 8.
It was 4th and 2, there was a penalty, and then it was 4th and 7 wiseass. That was the opening series. After that he did. And as I pointed out in that game thread he doesn't do that against opponents he respects. Aftet that they did go vanilla. If you watched them play Tennessee today or their opener v Southern Cal and think you saw the same effort from them you weren't watching at all.

???????why...UT all the way conf. game...always more important
If there was a chance of winning the SEC championship you MIGHT have a point. But you can't keep getting your *** kicked every year by your in-state rival and build a real program. Or keep the fans in the city on board.

I've been attending games for 35-40 years and in all that time, I cannot remember a single game Ky was successful accounting for a running qb. I don't see it starting this year.

Geez...are you serious.

1. Do you think we have any DL as good as theirs? Fields, Hearns?
2. Are our safeties as good as Clemons?
3. I'd seriously question if either of our tackles could play at all at UL
4. I love Jordan Jones...but Kelsey is better right now.

UK may beat UGA in a battle of QBs who look bad at times...but UT and UL will beat us handily...if not a total beat down.

Although Rob is obviously trolling again, for lack of anything better to do at the moment, I'll take the bait and respond.

We'll be lucky to win ONE of these games, and, if we do, the chances are very high that it won't be against Tennessee or Louisville.

Here's an interesting question: If you had the choice of winning against UGA and UT and going to the SEC championship game OR beating Louisville to become bowl
Eligible, which would you pick?

As much as I hate Louisville, I think going to a SEC Championship (even knowing we have no chance against Bama) would help us more with recruiting and our program confidence as a whole.

UL was a BS no fumble call away from losing to Duke, on top of a BS roughing kicker call that would've gave Duke ball with chance to score and win on final drive. 2 pivotal game changing calls that for toy effected the outcome of the game. I believe we're a much better team than Duke. I don't think FSU is that good. FSU got beat by UNC, who got smacked by VT 38-3, a VT team that just lost to SU. Miami has been the beneficiary of a terrible schedule until they met a not very good FSU team. I truly believe the only top 20 ACC team is Clemson. UL beat a very overrated FSU team who I honestly don't believe is that good. And what else have they done? Beat Duke by the skin of their teeth?

If our defense keeps this up, then by no means should you expect a continuation of last years UL game, because this defense is completely different and much better than the one that faced UL last season. If SJ gets in a groove passing the ball. Then we very well could beat UL. I truly don't think UL is good. Everyone thinks they're great because they beat a crazily overrated FSU team and needed help from the officials to beat Duke. And that's it? I just ain't buying the hype like everyone else. They've beaten one overrated team in a rebuild year. Now they're unbeatable? I just don't get it. I EXPECT a VERY COMPETITIVE game vs a SEVERELY OVERRATED UL team. I by no means believe they're close to the #7 team in the country. That's a joke to me.

Tenn has a bye week.... and then I forget the order but its Tenn. Tech, South Carolina, Mizzou, UK and Vandy.......

Their third string should go undefeated through that group ..... We're the best team out of that group actually lol.

It's going to be fun seeing what we can get done. We have the defensive speed to contain Dobbs and Jackson. It is just a matter of playing some assignment football. If they run away with it on us, it will be for lack of execution, as long as the O is productive enough to stay on the field and score a bit. You cannot play against guys like that on rubber legs.

Lane Kiffin poured it on Tennessee and Southern Cal. He went conservative on us

Don't necessarily agree here. I would say Kiffin called the same two plays around 20% of the time yesterday: stretch zone to the boundary with the RBs and QB power to the field. They had over 200 yards rushing on just those two plays alone. UT couldn't adjust and Kiffin just kept running the same thing and UT was helpless.

Fantastic play calling by Kiffin the whole game.
