    Me too. My buddy from the bar has to have a Vols phone home screen for the next month. We bet and he lost. He he.

    Sometimes OCs outsmart themselves. Keep it simple. I imagine that's part of what caused the Pruitt rage

    ancillary thought: the quality of the turf is better this year.

    Outstanding win and response from last week and even back to letting one go at SC.

    5.5 a carry on offense
    2.2 on defense

    7-5 is a legit possibility again. Not making a bowl would be a letdown again.

    If you want some more entertainment, Benny Snell had a Players Tribune article last week and boy, did that ever age well.

    There were a few games I was legit embarrassed by the field.

    8. There’s a lot of arrogant assed UK fans going home today or tomorrow and I’m not going to miss a [dadgum]ed one of them.

    I agree. And it was even kind of dangerously bad at times.

    Without being able to use their “wait until basketball season” line as well. Going to be some cousins slapped as soon as they walk in the trailer.

    I’m not sure we’ve had a game like this since 2009, where we were playing a solid team, not really expected to win, and we just dominated from start to finish. Butch got us an upset, but an upset win and a 60-minute performance like this really shows the peaks in the first season in a way we haven’t seen since Lane.

    The defense didn’t have a lot of a challenge, with Kentucky being one-dimensional and run down, but they rose to the challenge and played perhaps their best game of the season. The offense did have a real challenge, and they answered the bell.

    I still expect Missouri to hang quite a few on us, and there’s still a possibility that our season could end on a sour note. But 7-5 is legit on the table, and that wasn’t the case this morning. We have seen some good coaching this year. Not enough to guarantee that Pruitt is the guy long-term, but we’ve had a couple very nice high marks this season. And honestly, the low marks haven’t necessarily been coaching-related (e.g. losing all the fumbles against Florida). It’s encouraging for sure

    Missouri will step on their [Richards] because they have Dooley on staff. Our secondary has flashes of getting lost at times, especially when it looks like we are playing palms. But that’s to be expected with a young group under a new defense... even 10 games in.

    We can’t have busts this week. No busts and we win this one.

    The thought of losing to Botch and Dooley in the same year is painful.

    Losing to Bama was in no way, shape or form due to anything Lyle brought to the table. If... IF we lose to Mizzou I’ll grudgingly give a modicum of credit to ddiapos, but only grudgingly.

    I didn’t see a replay of how it happened but i was worried for him. Glad he didn’t get an Inky Johnson type injury

    When you don't have a dickhead wanting it cut short and in game shape 365 a year, the turf does well here.

    Everything that dipshit touched went sour.

    Can you imagine being a coach at a major football program and micromanaging the [uck fay]ing turf over the advice of dedicated experts?
