Even with Florida not recruiting as well as in years prior they still out-talented that UK team. UK wanted to win and tbh, I think Mullen and the players didn't give UK enough credit/overlooked them.



You should really watch the replay. Effort and desire get you so far. Florida got physically whipped at the point of attack in that game. It's not so clear-cut that Florida out-talents UK. I think Kentucky was the better team.

You got a youtube link? I'd be happy to watch it again. TBH, that UK team reminded me of UT's 2015 team that took a lot of really good teams to the wire.

Talent is there, drive is not. I mean, our offense can't expect our defense to hold every single team that we play to ten points or less just so our shitshow of an offense can have a chance.

Personally, if we swapped Quarterbacks, I think the differences in the scheming/offenses would cause the game to be flipped on its head.

Franks, as I've been saying forever, is too easy to predict for a defensive coordinator. He's neither good in running or passing, so all a team has to do is shut down the run and our offense is completely fricked because he will never make the plays necessary to soften them up.

This was just an example of a team wanting it way more than the other -- like Florida-Ole Miss 2008. You have to actually wake up and play, and Florida didn't.

Lets go back in time to 2008 which we did on the Gator board. We were LOADED with talent, a returning Heisman (Tim Tebow), Percy Harvin, Brandon Spikes etc etc. Ole Miss came to the Swamp with a bunch of 3 stars and beat us...it wasn't really coaching or talent..Ole Miss wanted it 100X more than we did and it resulted in Tims pledge.

UK wanted it 100X more than we did and they are tough hombres, don't kid yourself...they will not be pushovers for any team this year imo. Not saying we will win the defunct BCS like the 2008 team of course...but its one game and lets see how we do the next 3 games.

Straws hates Franks and blames the loss on him...because his backup QB Trask didn't win the starters job. There was plenty of blame sandwiches to handout....like the OL and the defense.
