Anyone else watching this one? Interesting match up. Impressed with the play fakes by RU qb, don't see alot of qbs follow through on those these days.

I had thought he had lost some of his fire…. What a win 🔥

Ole Miss at home -17 over UK
I was expecting something between 7-10. Cats defense should keep this one closer IMO.

Bama at home +2 over UGA
I thought the line would have Bama as a slight home favorite. See this as a toss up.

U6 at ND + 4 1/2 at Notre Dame
Another ACC team getting too much credit. I think the Irish cover easily by at least 10

$9 million for this ish.

Anybody have two tickets for the Vandy game for sale? Thanks!

We are going to be hell on wheels with our defense and placekicker.
Schedule is very favorable the next 3 games.
Momentum is ours and could build and build heading to Rocky Flop.
Vandergriff is showing signs of why he was a 5 star QB coming out of HS.

New coach Cignetti has them going. 5-0 and on top of the B10. Scoring some points.

If you watch recent games where the secondary shined, you have to acknowledge MH Jr holding down his own to take pressure off other parts of the secondary. Would argue 2nd biggest possible loss for this game behind Deone on the Defense. Next man up!

Stoops gets a lot of flack for his record against top teams during his time at UK. During UK’s 8 year bowl run and into this season, he is 14 - 12 against teams ranked 6th - 25th.

That was a great win Cats. Throw out South Carolina and Kentucky is playing excellent football. You had Georgia on the ropes but couldn't finish the deal. Today UK finished the deal. Congrats.

This will be the biggest story in college football this weekend.

For Julias Randle and some others.

You know the drill. School team or band wants to raise funds. They setup shop at a “bingo hall” where not only bingo but pull tabs are played.

Should schools not participate in these activities based on ethical concerns?

Some of these bingo halls are found in parts of towns where:
- buy here, pay here
- rent-to-own
- pawn shops
Etc

Are found. Is this feeding on the avarice of desperate people?

3-2 after five games just how we all predicted
