Truth Takes: Kentucky Preview 2023

[Okeechobee Joe]

Maybe we can catch them looking ahead to georgia, or tennessee, or alabama, or south carolina, or louisville. Did not reallize Kentucky has a tough schedule. They get the vols and bama at home, at least.

No way we catch them cats looking ahead. As you know, every team in the SEC tends to bring their best against Florida.

I’ve made it to Ohio, yay! But yes, as others have said UK really does see UG as their biggest SEC rival. Being a basketball school, I think our rivalry that has come about the last 30 years as we as the 31 year annual losing streak has given them a special kind of hate we can’t fathom. Because losing to a team 31 seasons in a row is for losers.

Was kidding on some levels. The conversation was asking if Kentucky will be up for us- are we a big enough rival- or not. They do have georgia, at georgia next week. I think they see their schedule ahead as difficult with losses, and they are going to want this one badly. The loser will be looking at a mediocre season. Agree with every poster that looks for Napier to get the team ready, and for the staff to be ready to call a great game.

Hopeful........... I just don't have any idea if Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde will show up.

There shouldn't be any doubt, losing the past two years should be enough for everyone on this team to bring their game.

Gators win in an old fashioned cod pulling.

I do not know what that is and I'm not going to google it.

Well it's time.

Does anyone here realize that we were 96th in total defense last year and now we're 5th at 244yds/game? Yes, we've not gotten into the better offenses yet, but UT is averaging 463 yds/game alone

We should win but they want to win, too. They'll be motivated. All those years of losing aren't easy to forget.

KY is similar to Utah in that they are well coached, have established solid systems and team culture, and make the most out of having mostly very competent players with a few really good ones.

So we’ll see how much we’ve progressed since week 1, on the road against a gritty team. I like our team and our chances.

There are definite similarities. It’s why the play of AR last year went from electric in the Utah win to dismal and a loss to Uk a week later. I think we are much more balanced and prepared this season. But that’s where the similarities stop. I respect Whittingham quite a bit for what he’s done at Utah and he seems like a genuinely decent guy. Stoops on the other hand is a dirty coach who isn’t very good and looks like a sweaty mid-level union rep.

I gotta agree. Kentucky is utah in blue uniforms.

At this moment, 96th is 403 ypg, so huge turn around. Incidentally, fsu is currently 94th, giving up 400 ypg.
