Tennessee or Kentucky? Butch says all the right things, but Mark has UK playing tough.

Stoops has himself a QB. That alone makes such a huge difference. I'll say UK is closer but with the way UT is recruiting if they can just find a serviceable QB they'll be deadly.

A good QB can make a bad team go a long way.

I think we just found our good QB.

Pretty sure Tennessee said the exact same thing about Dobbs last year too.

Tennessee will have the recruiting edge because it's a football school. I trust Stoops as a coach significantly more than Butch.

Tennessee has a lot of good young defensive talent. Easily more than UK imo. Stoops is the better coach and UK's offense will likely be better than ours going forward no matter the personnel due to coaching.

I think our young defensive talent gives us the edge but it is close.

Once Tenn has a decent o-line they'll be in the conversation

A lot of us did. Nothing changed. They were trying to redshirt him it seems. I'm not sure if you watched any of that game the other night, but the difference in QB play was quite stark.

2.

Looking at '16 for UT to make some noise. Probably in '17 too since so few will leave early from those lines and a nearly all Sr OL and DL should be formidable even if they aren't all 5 stars.

They are close, but I think UT is closer. They have a much tougher schedule, so it just doesn't show in their record.

As long as Mark Stoops sticks with us I think we'll be alright. Tennessee is recruiting very well and all they need is a QB. My tennessee buddy promised me last night Tennessee has found their guy.

Yeah...Stoops will probably get hired away in a year or two.
