State-Kentucky: One wag's opinion...

[Rick Cleveland]

Who would have thought Kentucky, not Florida, would be Dogs' toughest September test?

WAG ?

You mean you don't know as much as Finebaum?

I expect a tough game. Have not seen us this season, truly under stress.

Dogs will prevail if we handle the pressure...

60 min. deal....

As I watched games last night with Washington State, UCF, etc....all I could think about is the contrast to the hard nosed, line of scrimmage brand we play.

I’m grateful for teams like UK. It will be a good game to watch. Because it’s real football.

Not the 7 on 7 brand that seems to be all the rage in Texas and the west coast.

It seems our mascot confused brethren up the road are sold on it.

I want to believe we will physically dominate UK. Win the battle of trenches.

But something tells me we are going to have to limit that QB from running. He’s faster than our entire team.

Snell,schmell. We need a good 1st quarter snot bubble to come out of the UK Qb and the rest will take care of itself.

Dude has less yardage and scores through three games than Fitz has in two games. 17 that knock-off brand quarterback and the rest of that SWAC team. State wins by three touchdowns after putting in the third string in the fourth quarter.

This game won't be close. The media are building up Kentucky to be a possible player in the SECE but we beat them last year by five touchdowns with a team that has been significantly upgraded. State has more team speed, better O-line, much better D-line, much better QB, bette running game. Bet the farm.
