At what point do we really consider a curse? Jefferson torn ACL.

We have won two Citrus Bowl games vs Iowa and Penn State in the past four years. We are about to beat Florida on the road again for wins in 3 of the last 5 against them.

Injuries happen and kids do stupid stuff and need to pay the price to learn.
If you are satisfied with Citrus Bowl’s fine. Me personally, I want just 1 championship.
UK is an SEC team who before Bear left was very strong. Since, not so much to put it mildly.
This was supposed to be a special year and injuries and turmoil are derailing it before we even play one SEC game.
Bluegrass Miracle ring any bells? I guess 75 yds in 2 seconds happens too huh?
 
We're not cursed...everybody has injuries. In year's past we'd start a season with Josh Paschal having cancer, Chris Oat's stroke, we lose Vito Tisdale before year even starts, etc... this is part of football for all teams.

Bama lost top 2 WR, we're down running backs, etc...I'm sure they felt cursed last year but it happens to all teams.

What?
 
It’s football, and season ending injuries are (unfortunately) completely normal. The C-Rod situation is unfortunate, but there’s nothing mystical or metaphysical about it. No curse here.
 
I mean CRod’s situation, his back up out for yr after 1 quarter, other RBs dinged up and we have played 1 damn game people!
Maybe UK should have given both the Bear and Rupp a Caddy!

Rupp never received a Cadillac from UK. This legend is false. Bryant made it up for the banquet circuit.

I give Brooks credit for ending the "Curse of the Bear". This is obviously a different era than when Bear Bryant was at UK. Anytime UK is competitive in football, given how few FBS players are actually from Kentucky, it is an outstanding coaching achievement. Would love to see Stoops pass the Bear in the Swamp.
