I'm not saying we will, I'm not very optimistic at all so I hope no one takes this post that way. But, our only shot to save this season is to knock off Florida. Everyone expected a win against Southern Miss and a loss to Florida. So now the role is flipped. If we can pull off a victory it will end our streak and we will still be 1-1 where everyone thought we would be.

Winning is so alpha and demeaning to the loser. We understand a utopian ethical mindset here. Mitch is a master at this. We lose the right way, allow the opponent to have the day, and we both win.

Florida will win and we will win by losing. It's so ethical. It feels so rewarding.

Dont have to beat Florida to save the season for me.

Show some improvement. Do not fold. Make adjustments. Dont get out-coached by a guy in his very first game.

Dont get whipped on the LOS by a CUSA team that has 2 new tackles, one a senior dlineman who hadnt played tackle since high school.

Dont get run over by a smaller line.

Dont give up and lay down with a huge lead.

Bounce back performances will bring me back but we have to show some heart, fundamentals and quality coaching decisions.

If this past game was just an aberration then win one you were not expected to and make up for it. We need 6.

Said me in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034, 2035, 2036 / Mitch passes away / 2037, 2038, 2039, 2040, 2041.....

Looks like 2042 it will finally be over.

I'm at an all time low for confidence. A win could change that in a hurry but I think we have zero chance at their place next week.

I've enjoyed your posts today. I can't believe the fact ppl want an ethical HC over a winning one. Winning solves everything, hell if we won 9 games I'd let the coach go full BCG party mode.

I've never understood the thought process behind trading out victories with teams you're supposed to beat, with teams you're not favored to beat. I want all the wins, not just enough to get by. That's what's wrong with Kentucky Football. We accept mediocrity. 6-6 is just fine. Winning the games youre favored in AND the tough games is how you get from 6 wins to 8,9, 10 wins. It doesn't matter if you beat Florida or Georgia if you turn around and lose to SMU or Vandy in the same season. You're just treading water. I'm done accepting mediocrity at best. I want 6 wins to be a givin and then play for 8,9, 10 wins.

Well you're going to wait a long time. I'll be surprised if we win 5.

Let's say we do get to that 5 victory milestone....then we play for the BIG 6TH win and the chance play for the Junior's Bait and Tackle Bowl.

Oh I agree, I think 4 wins is our max at the moment. I'm just saying that it just bugs me that people think it's ok to lose to SMU as long as we beat a team we're not favored against. It's not ok. It's never ok to lose to Southern Miss.

Where did you read it was ok to lose to USM?

We have been total idiots wanting to burn down CWS, skin Stoops and MB, and you think you read it was ok to lose last night?

So what's your point? Cancel the season, a total fan revolt? If you think hardly anyone is ok with losing to southern miss and more importantly how we lost then your not paying attention very well. I'm done with the team after last nights debacle, they have to earn me back, will not spend another dime traveling to Lexington and paying to watch that garbage. Is that what your looking for, if so already done with me, hell I'm not even planning on watching them get waxed at Florida.

It all makes sense to me now... Thanks!
