I think UT's offense can overcome UK's defense.

UT's scoring defense sucks, but so does UK's scoring offense.

Interesting that Hooker is 4th nationally in efficiency and Tennessee runs the ball more than they throw it. UCF was more of a passing team under Heupel.

Meh ... all jokes and jabs aside, have you spent much time watching Kentucky football ? Nah - why would you ? Throw the numbers out. Kentucky just plays strange, by design.

Stoops led Kentucky plays a soft shell. It can be frustrating, sometimes, if you're Florida - move the ball all night, and then get field goals blocked and false start penalties and such.

If you're Mike Leach, you just move that damn ball uup and down the field through the air, then run it in the red zone and score 31.

As long as Tennessee stays patient, they will move the ball up and down the damn field all day - seven yards at a time. Then, in the red zone, the defense changes. If Tennessee has an answer for that, they'll score a ton of points.

Yeah idk how patient Hooker is (my recollection is that he’s pretty patient), but if he can stand taking what the defense gives him UT will move the ball at will to the 20. After that, who the hell knows, our DLine only has 1 starter left.

I think Tenner might have the better team but expect UK to win in front of a raucous home crowd. One of the most interesting games of the week.

You have to have someone on the other end to catch the ball. We're not very deep anywhere. WR included.

I think we've all felt like this is a 50/50 game even before the season. Not going to stop the merciless shite talking. I do know Stoops sucks off bye weeks and then takes care of business the week after. I don't know why but I know it's what we do.
