The competition is considered to be very poor despite their upset this past week.

They will be without their best player (rb), a starting olineman, and a starting linebacker.


That said, we need to display a very efficient and overpowering display of football.


Control both lines of scrimmage.

Barker needs to settle down and play with composure and confidence.

Limit their run game. We should be able to run at will.

Get a lead and step on their necks and extend it, no letting up.

I just want the players to look like they know they're darn assignments on defense. I don't feel like I'm asking to much here.

The D better buckle up their damn chin straps and hit some sumbitches! Play D like you're mad about everything!!! This defense has got to show me they're ready to smash mouths in the SEC and they will man up with anyone anywhere! If the defense doesn't show up to play like they're pants are on fire then it'll be the last game I watch under Stoops. The team takes on the personality of the head coach and so far their personality is when it gets tough lay down and quit. No fire period!

I want to see UK continue to score through the 4th quarter. I don't care about feelings being hurt by running up the score. We need to blow them out.

I can't imagine that we won't be in command of this one for all four quarters.
Hopefully, the rain will hold off.

I agree Brian. I would shorten it to efficient control for 4 quarters. If we can accomplish that, even against a weak opponent, it will be a positive sign.
