After watching Alabama and Tennessee put up over 1000 yards, we get this. Don't get me wrong, I love winning but I'd love to see some down field passes.
Boring football.

Stoops loves this crap. Hopefully Ferentz opens up that job.
Don’t look now but we are Iowa, yay!
It’s ironic because we are the birthplace of Air Raid. The rest of college football adopts the Air Raid outright or at minimum is heavily influenced by the concepts within the spread ….and we go away from it.
We should have leaned into it and embraced being the birthplace of the modern offense once it started to take off in the early 2000s.

The air raid is stupid. I don’t want that. I would however love a line that can pass block. That’s why the offense is stuck in the mud. No rhythm because of poor protection
It’s a 50/50 deal really. If we win 60-59 I’m hella bummed because we have no defense but I’m happy to get the win
If we win 9-3 I’m still happy to get the win but I’m hella bummed that we have a bad offense.
whatever happens I’ll try not to bitch too much as long as we win. Just win. Winning entertains me. I don’t need any kind of certain offense to make me happy. Just get the W.

It sure has been hard to watch the first half. I hope to see a fire set under UK’s a$$ on this next possession.
We are birthplace of Air Raid and Mike Leach‘s team was going wild with it thus far this season until tonight. UK has held Leach‘s team to 91 yards total offense in the first half. But, you are right our offense sucks.
Scran looks scared 💩less with his play calling. Maybe he doesn't trust the Oline ar all
Yeah. Our D has played really well and Brad White has called an excellent game disguising the blitz.
I feel better with a 27 - 17 win than Alabama fans do with a 49 - 52 loss, but that's just me. I like CRod running for a couple hundred with a few Levis bombs worked in at just the right times to keep Leech confounded.
Because the offense finally woke up. Yes a win is a win. But ask the NFL how those Thursday night snoozers are working out. First you put the games on AmazonPrime and then they are like watching paint dry.
I love a good Defensive struggle here and there but man no one wants that all the time.
Fortunately, the Coaches carefully reviewed this and other threads, and had the team toss for 239 yards to make amends.
Stoops is what he is and has hit his ceiling. The good news, the floor should be higher than it's ever been. The bad news, we will always be an ugly team based on conservative offense/defense with some head scratching game plans and mediocre in game coaching.
Best case scenario is that he continues to recruit with the same trajectory and in a few years he takes a different gig. We hire someone who's a bit more Innovative and aggressive and they take us to the next level.

Best case he leaves? LOL. We have some absolutely loony toon fans that act like there's a history of winning at UK and that 8, 9 and 10 win seasons just aren't good enough and the coach needs to hit the road. smh
Guys do any of you realize how bad our Oline is at pass blocking? We do not have time in most cases to throw long
Remember when you all wanted to hire Mike leach?
Wonder how we'd do against him.
Anyway, our recievers can't even run routes bc Levis is rushed so much bc the Ole` line

This is funny, were attracting playmakers now we've not gotten before. But yeah we hit our ceiling lol. How many starters we replace on O this year? You wouldn't know, your a basketball guy who watches a few games a year and has visions of 1997 in your head
Stoops leaving in a few years while continuing doing the one thing he does well and bringing in someone innovative who can take us to the next level is best case. Stoops has hit his ceiling.
The work he's done is impressive but let's put it in context. He's feasted on 3 cupcakes and a down UL. Most of our coaches only had 3 OOC games and UL was a bit tougher. He's also benefited from a down SEC East. Finally, he has had more support from the AD than any other UK FB coach.
Again, good job taking advantage of what you're given but we need context.
Didn't mean to trigger you, Mama Stoops but recruiting is the one thing he's always done well. But he's bad at in game coaching, doesn't care enough about special teams, and his butt puckers when we are scoring too fast.
Good job getting us to this point and the floor has risen but I can't see this guy ever besting a legit top 10 or winning the East.
Delusional considering that the heavy odds are us going backwards as a program after Stoops, not forward. But yeah, let's scoff at 8 wins + consistently and move on for the big prize: Playoff yearly! smh at some of our fans.
I’ve been Scangrello’s biggest critic but last night was better. I won’t say great but definitely better.
Stoops has two wins against top 25 in 7 games. We’ll be in the top 20 in America and have a solid young nucleus of players. Besides a handful of teams that just recruit at a different level we’re competitive with everyone. If your hope is to be Alabama or UGA it isn’t happening. I hope Stoops stays here 15 more years.
I said best case scenario. Let me type this a bit slower - Stoops has hit his ceiling. There's nothing wrong with that and it's okay to accept that.
Alabama probably feels better with their 6 national titles or whatever it is the past 13 years too.
Let's see how we do in Knoxville in 2 weeks as well against TN.
Defense played lights out against MSU and very well against Ole Miss. UT's O is playing at another level but it gives me hope we can slow them down somewhat. Just not confident our coach will play aggressively enough on O to win and therefore will not score enough.
Good lord.
Stuff like this shows how far stoops brought this program. Now fans get to complain about how we win.

Almost 500 yards for the cats. Held a team averaging 461 to 220. Did not seem boring to me.
Just because you type it doesn’t make it so. That’s typing slow or fast. It’s your opinion and not fact.
Reading the responses here, there's one fella that reminds me of this guy....
So you were happy 3-3 at halftime? The offense opened up more in the second half. Led to a better game.
I also see where bama plays msu next. After we play TN and Alabama plays MSU I wonder what the cumulative stats from each teams 2 game series will look like.
I agree we have to play to win every drive against tn to have a chance. If it's 4th and 1 we need to be going for it. If it's 4th and under 5 inside the tn 40 we need to be going. Field goals won't do much against tn. We will need to score about as much as last season against tn to win.
