Auburn

Pope did say after the game that they probably brought Robinson back a week too soon. So, I'm expecting they will sit him for this game. Hope he's good to go but just basing it on what Pope said last night. Post season is more important than this one game.
I agree. I fully expect no Jax. I’m saying I trust pope with these decisions. I’m not sure as a fan that I have the medical information to know better than Pope
 
If guys are healthy, they play. Auburn isn't nearly as dominant on the road in the SEC. Their road games this year:

Texas - win by 5
USC - win by 6
Georgia - win by 2
LSU - win by 7
Ole Miss - win by 10
Vandy - win by 12
Bama - win by 9
 
My daughter jammed her wrist playing golf at the end of the regular season and it affected her the rest of the year until she got to rest it. She may be tougher than Robinson though because she played an entire season with what turned out to be a strained MCL and inflamed Plica membrane. She refused to go to the doctor because she was afraid they would make her have surgery and she couldn't play. She said the pain wasn't bad enough to miss the season. 🤣
I raised 3 girls and boy and girls are just tougher PERIOD!
 
I think we will be an 8-9 point underdog. But, I still think we can pull it off especially at home.
The game is in Rupp. @ Alabama without BOTH players the spread was on 8 early. IF both play, I would say a 4/5 point line, If only Butler plays, 6. Also, butler needs to play and work the rust off. Live game action is the only way to do it.
 
Do you just sit Butler and Jackson no matter what? I don't think that game is winnable. They slaughtered ole miss by 30 pts.
I don't understand. If Florida can beat them on their home floor then we can be competitive in this game. You make it out like they are UK 2012 and we are EKU.

Not to mention this team seems to play their best when the stakes are highest and moral the lowest. Can't count them out against ANY team. They will be at home, crowd rocking, just a big game atmosphere, they will be ready. Got up 10 on Bama at Bama. They CAN beat Auburn in Rupp, especially with Butler back.

If it is unwinnable then just tell Pearl to keep his guys on the Plains and we will forfeit the game. Do not play it at all.

I guess when Shaq came to Rupp and we had a 6'7" center we should have just gave up on that game as well. Oh wait we won that game. Play your players, if they are available, try to win every game.

OP is likely a troll. If he’s truly a UK fan, then he has horrendous opinions. Terrible poster on the football board too.
 
Broome is just as dangerous as a passer as a scorer imo. I think we have to stay connected the other 4 at all times.
 
Before this forum even existed, while UK was on probation in Pitino's 1st or 2nd year and "The Unforgettables" were still just a bunch of untalented scrubs, a similarly dominant LSU team led by Shaq came into Rupp Arena and most UK fans were afraid the Wildcats were in for a home court beatdown. LSU did not win that game.
