..as a double digit favorite. Meaning, he hasn't beaten the spread.

I heard this today.

He lost 3 of them (FSU, vandy first year, Oklahoma in first year). Won the 4th against USC last, but under 10 points.

We're favored by 10.5 against Kentucky this weekend. Here's hoping he beats it easily this year!

I didn't think we'd cover before Carroll's concussion but now I'm leaning towards this being full-on butthole clencher like South Carolina.

You realize Vandy was a home game last year, right? We lost to Vandy year before last.

But Deboer has learned.
No problem this weekend

Gun to my head I’d probably take Kentucky and the points this weekend. Got a feeling it may be an ugly win. First road game for Keelon. Kentucky is supposedly improved. They’ve give good teams trouble there in the past.

I think Bama still gets inflated lines because of the name but I still don't like the stat. It seems we play down to the competition.

Deboer is generally soft and leadership style always flows down into the people in the organization. So toughness will not be a general strength of the team.

A lot of downvotes in here.

This coaching staff is shaky in these unranked opponent road games, if we come out and dominate Kentucky, put up a statement game (I'd rather have those in November though), I'll be impressed. But the stats don't lie.

I'm honestly more concerned about @Miss State than Kentucky, as far as a classic DeBoer let down game.

This game is a great chance for DeBoer to show he has turned a corner. I’m not optimistic based on his first two years but hope I am pleasantly surprised.

0-4 ATS as a double digit road favorite is a negative indicator.

Whatever they're doing to get ready for road games ain't working.
