re: Does Lock give Mizzou a shot in the East?

Bullard, McCalister, and Ivie combined are what make that Florida line better. Harris was hard to keep out of the backfield against y'all but we flat out couldn't get enough bodies to block to keep Florida's line off of Towles. It's a good majority of the reason he had such a dismal performance against Florida. All three of those guys are Top 10 in sacks in the SEC right now.

And when I looked earlier I believe the only two defensive categories they aren't statistically better is tackles and INT (tied). And that's against a stronger schedule.

I think it's difficult to compare them at the moment. Kentucky came out with a completely different game plan against Mizzou then it did against Florida. First off, that Freshmen Tackle didn't start, you know the one that got eaten alive vs Florida. Secondly, you had 1-2 RBs in the backfield helping block on almost every play. Finally, Towles was throwing quick passes the entire game, it's not like he had tons of time back there against Mizzou.

I think Kentucky had a really good game plan against Mizzou and they scored just enough points to win. Against Florida your flaws were exposed and you corrected them, your team is well coached.
