Coach stoops has a veteran team with some really talented players at WR and RB.. I think that young qb is gonna be a good one..

I have been saying that they are for the last 2 years

2 years in a row I have been proven wrong

I like KY, want to see them do well, but I am done with predicting success for them until I see something

Our offense will be decent but the defense, especially now with West's injury, will be paper thin. Still think it'll be 6-6 and probably 4th in the East.

We have a better chance at getting to Atlanta than the mild cats do.


So in other words, no.

That would get Stoops off the hot seat for 1 year & would be considered successful, I think

To me, there was no excuse to miss a bowl game the last 2 years

I am pulling for you...

I like Stoops and hope he gets off the hot seat honestly. He had a massive mess to clean up post Joker and it's his first round as an HC. Everybody expects a Rich Brooks turnaround without acknowling just how good of a coach Rich Brooks was.

I didn't mean sleeper to win the east. Maybe I should've rephrased. I should've said will they have a shot at 8 wins which would be successful for them. I like stoops as a coach and I think they should give him a few more years at least.

8 wins would be a good season for LSU.

8 wins would be amazing for UK

I did not think you were asking if they could win the East; nor did I predict them to win the East the last 2 years

BUT - I thought they would get 8 or 9 wins

This year, I want to see them get 6 - with their schedule, there is no excuse to miss a bowl this year

Amen. With no insult intended to Stoops if he can't make it to a bowl game this year it might be time for Kentucky to start shopping for a new HC.

6 is reasonable. Picking up W's @ Mizzou, v State, and @ Louisville as well aren't exactly pipe dreams. Like Belle said, our defensive front 7 will make or break us. Secondary looks to be very talented and the offense looks to be a strong suit. I still think we finish 4th, but if the d line surprises then 8 isn't unreasonable. What's ifs don't get you far in this conference though.

Don't even try to act like Bama didn't want Matt Elam in his recruitment. GTFO with that shite.

You've progressively gotten worse versus Kentucky and it resulted in a UK win last season. The fact that you're laughing is laughable in itself.
