With injury to throwing hand.Feel bad for the guy, he can sling the rock.
Likely improves our chances though. He was a game changing QB for that program.

This hurts us. We can defend the pass, now they will run the ball, and unless new LBs show up, that means trouble for us.

I don’t see how this is worse. Now we know to load the box and make a green QB beat us.

I wouldnt take them lightly still we have made backup QBs look like Patrick Mahomes in the past, but im sure every team we face is gonna run up and down the field on us until we figure something out.

I read their backup has started 10 games before so he’s not exactly inexperienced. Now they’ll just run the ball down our throats.
Hopefully we can put up 35+ because we’ll need to

They also lost their best RB to the transfer portal, and rushing is not a strength of their O.

BC ran for a 3.0 yard/rush last season in the weak ACC. Yea our run D sucks, but BC doesn’t have the RB talent UK did.

Let’s hope not. I wonder if they have the talent that CMU does?
I’ll believe we can stop the run when I see it. I half expect SEMO to run all over us

They don’t have any RB talent.

Well good. When we shut them down I can go back to irrational optimism

I’ve mentally reset to a 6-win season just so I won’t be horribly disappointed.

If we don’t beat BC, then a path to 6 doesn’t even look very likely.
Realistically looking at the rest of the schedule…
Wins
SEMO
North Texas
Vandy
Losses
Georgia
Florida
A&M
That means you’d have to win 2 of these games just to get to 6 wins
Tennessee
South Carolina
Arkansas
The season isn’t over but if we don’t get a hell of a lot better on defense we are looking at a complete disaster

Id add Florida into that bottom group. They haven't looked unbeatable this year so far.

Also the timing of this semo game could not be better.

Money says we make the new qb look like Mahomes. We have a history of that

We usually make the backup look good if the starter drops out during game week. We need the benefit of film and when we dont have it, we get flat footed. We’ll have film from bc’s game at temple to look over. We’ll be fine against bc.

Kentucky's oline talent has to be loads better, also.

Grosel is a backup with some experience. In BC’s final game against Virginia last year he threw for 520 yards and 4 TD’s. He had 3 picks and was sacked 4 times.
Grosel was 11-14 for 199 yards against UMass and only had 59 yards passing last week. In last years Virginia game he proved that he can sling if he has to.
Grosel’s biggest 2 flaws is that he holds on to the ball to long and sometimes throws into coverage.
On paper BC has a even offensive attack with 627 passing yards and 611 rushing yards.
I think BC has a very good offensive line returning 5 starters. LT Varbel is healthy and in 2019 when he was healthy he did not allow a sack. After Vrabel was injured last year he moved to RT. However BC only rushed for around 100 yards a game last year. That was ranked 118th in FBS
I think to win we will need to take an early lead and hope Grosel makes some mistakes.
