I get it, it’s rigged. If you listen to the announcers they are in on it and pretty much give things away. “Who’s gonna make that big play that wins it for CMU?” Pfft [Reply]
Great win. This is a 9 win team. Baze cool and calm as always. Badie is legit. LBs need to tighten up, secondary is really good. Very few receivers were open. Sirmon is a good QB. [Reply]

Our run defense looked pretty bad. Have to get better there quickly. Bolton is gone. Need some others to step up. [Reply]

Are you familiar with Kentucky’s personnel, what they dealt with last season (they had an assistant coach die during the season), and the changes made to the personnel this season?
I am 100% biased for Kentucky, but if the two teams played the way they did today, Kentucky wins by 14+.
I also don’t understand this whole Mizzou should beat Kentucky thing since Kentucky’s been the better program for the majority of Stoops tenure.
They actually have a legit passing game and two decent/good WRs in Ali and Robinson along with arguably one of the best RBs in the SEC to go along with a defense that gave up less than 100 yards today. [Reply]

Offensively-sure. But the fact of the matter is Kentucky has not, even vs bad teams, demonstrated the passing game that they did today under Stoops in his 9 seasons there.
The last time they had 2 WRs with 100+ yards in a half was in 2011.
They hadn't had a QB pass for 300+ yards since 2016(!).
Wandale Robinson is a legitimate playmaker at WR and probably better than any WR Stoops has had (I liked Bowden, but Wandale has better hands and can actually be used out of HB more so than Bowden could).
The Defense held a team to under 100 yards for the first time in 25 years.
If the offense has ANY presence of a passing game to supplement what's been solid defensive play and ground game for the past 4 seasons, Kentucky will be very, very, very hard to beat.
They are also starting 10 seniors on Defense as well.
But again, I do not understand why Kentucky is looked down on. They have been the better program since 2015 consistently. Stoops has recruited at a high level the past few seasons as well. Moving forward, I expect the series to be closer as Drink gets his players in, but top to bottom, Kentucky should win given the losses personnel Mizzou had from last season. [Reply]
