What happens if Stoops wins today and beats UL ?

What Happens to Stoops if....
- Thread starter UKWinsAgainYep
- Start date
He would be 7-5 with a .500 SEC record and a top 25 win. His job would be safe after the season that's for sure.
Give him a golf clap for doing at the bare minimum what should be expected of a U.K. football coach?
I hope we can stay within 3 td's by the time the clock rubs out cause it might be the ugliest score a team will put on us in some time. We have had some ugly ones and that is a scary thought.
We all run naked down Nicholasville Road???
Our "fans" would come up with someone else they demand to be fired for the time being.
You know, firing someone cures all ills, even if it's in the first quarter of a game, like tonight.
They always got the Athletic Director. God help us if people stop complaining about Mitch. If that happens the rifle teams equipment managers better look out
We would say Stoops is lucky, Louisville just sucked worse and whatever is wrong that day is Mitch Barnhardts fault.
Same as usual.
Same as usual.
6 wins is the worse season a UK football coach has ever had. 7 wins, I laugh at 7 wins and beating a team that was in the conversation for CFP. If we are not winning 11-12 games a year, then we should sstart over, and forget giving the new coach 5 years, he should be doing it in year 2. Why look at how Cal took the basketball team to EE in first year. Ok, the new coach should do it in his first year, if not, hey time to get a new coach. Saban, Belichek, maybe Pete Carroll. or we could give Stoops 1 more year to crack the CFP
This is a good time to face Louisville. I'm not sure what team will come out there Saturday at noon, but they had the air taken out of their sails a bit with that lackluster showing last Thursday. I hope there isn't a hangover from that, but I wouldn't be surprised.
Plus UK was given the recipe on how to stop Louisville's offense. Just bring extra men in the box because the line still stinks.

Hopefully someone would be fooled into hiring him away and UK can move past this mediocrity.
Problem is UK has played two teams that are of UofL's caliber or better - and were outscored 79-13.
Yep. lol Don't forget: our bowl would be upgraded to a less crappy bowl, but still crappy.
True, but UK has improved since UF and Bama, and the Cards are a bitter in state rival.
How has UK improved? You're going to look better against that schedule in October. They are one week from getting rolled by a soft UT team. And you act like Louisville doesn't have anything to play for. They have a lot more at stake than the Weedwacker Bowl.
Where is this Weedwacker bowl you speak of? I want to see who gets invited. Is it in Colorado and called the Columbian Gold Weed Wacker bowl
Years ago, the bowl game in Shreveport was known as the "Poulan Weed-eater Independence Bowl".Where is this Weedwacker bowl you speak of? I want to see who gets invited. Is it in Colorado and called the Columbian Gold Weed Wacker bowl
Really? Actually, injuries played as big a part in Louisville's win last year as Lamar Jackson did! Had Boom and/or JoJo not gotten hurt in the first quarter, maybe the results may have been different! Through the first half last year, Stoops totally out coached Petrino! This year, Kentucky is much better than it was last year and is deeper at running back than it was last year, and I don't think Louisville is that much better than it was last year. The key to this year's game is keeping Jackson on the bench and how do we do that? Prolonged ground game and score touchdowns at the end of those long drives! And, all the time, Jackson can't run all over UK if he is on the bench! I don't think Louisville can consistently stop Boom, JoJo, and Snell! Then, I think Johnson will be able to connect with our Wide Receivers for a balanced attack! Remember, the pressure is on Louisville, not Kentucky! I think Kentucky is just a good as Louisville except for maybe Jackson! Take Jackson off Louisville's team, and the talent level is pretty even!
You guys have selective memories. Yes the acts were up 21 -0 but it is not like the offense was rolling over UL. 1 TD was a pick 6 run back 80yds, 1 TD was after another pick run back to the red zone. The 3rd TD was a drive but the bug play was a long 3rd down pass play.
As a Card fan I might point out UL was missing key players as well.
Either way both teams are different this year. UK is nothing like last years offense though your defense is similar.

Loserville can only put 11 men on the field at a time. Last I watched, UK put 11 men on the field. Where is UofL a lot better then us. One place QB, but he was better then Houston's QB, and they still lost. Our OL is definitely better then theirs. There is NO comparison in RB's. I'll take Snell, Boom and JoJo any day over their RB's. Their DB's are probably better then UK's, but I think our receivers are on par with theirs.
Of course, as we all know, is to control the game with our RB's and keep Jackson contained. Yes, it can be done. Duke and Huston both proved it.
OLD STOLL FIELD GUY!

The problem when they have the ball one of the 11 they put out there is Lamar Jackson,we manage to get 11 on the field most of the time.
Their DB's aren't all that great,and they do just about as much goofy crap(turnovers and penalties)as we do but Jackson covers for them most of the time.Maybe they come out a little flat after last week,we always seem to be the game after a team stinks up the joint.
Make yourself happy, stop watching and don't go to the bowl game. Hell I would hate to see anybody be as miserable as you are right now.
