Well that’s a odd feeling getting a bit of love in the polls like that. Feels nice indeed.
Go Big Blue….
Go get ‘‘em Stoops….
Good to be a UK fan today….

We went to the Volleyball game yesterday also and UK won their game.
Pretty good turn out there also. Will be glad to see a renovation to that place coming next year.
 
This puts us in a good spot, because the next two games are very winnable, meaning it's likely that the Cats roll into October 4-0 and top 10.

Uk is in a place where if they go 11 and 1 they are a lock for new years 6 and who knows what else. Long way from there and the only poll that matters doesn't come out for weeks but still nice to see.
 
Very possible Gameday will be in Oxford for the Ole Miss game. Both teams should be 4-0. Although that same week we'd be competing with the Alabama/Arkansas game and NC State/Clemson for the weekly host sites.

Not much opportunity to rise next week. Most the top 10 playing a cupcake just like us. Haven’t looked at week 4.
 
Shocking. Love it. but not sure if we are legitimately a Top 10 team right now. Wow.
Agree. But, we haven't fielded our best RB yet. If we do when we travel to Oxford, and we bring home a convincing W and 5-0 record, then for sure. Road wins in Gainesville and Oxford coupled with non-conference wins against 2 G5 teams predicted to play one another for their conference title? Sure. Top 10 confirmed at that point. Kind of generous at this point. I'm at we take Florida's 12 spot right now.

Q is Ole Miss the most important game of Stoops career talk. It’s coming. And he just keeps on eating it and rolling. I love it.
 
Same. It's exciting, but probably a little high.

If Florida was really #12 best team in the country going into the that game, college football is really down.
-nah...UK is just really really good. Solid offense w/ *great* defense.

-given our FB history* I understand why people are having a hard time grasping this stuff...but UK *made* UF look bad.

*the past means nothing...our cats are a top 10 team and they absolutely deserve to be.

Ole Miss coach said UK was a bunch of soft hillbilly rednecks. Since gonzo journalism was invented by Hunter Thompson which is just make up a story to suit yourself, it must be true. Haha
 
I get why people think 9 is too high, but when you look at the landscape, road wins are extremely tough to get, especially against ranked teams.

UK was missing, arguably, it's most important player, he's at least UK's best running back by a mile. That’s a pretty important position.

UF had just beaten Utah, who is legit. Put up over 70 points yesterday.

The swamp was jacked up and it was a featured night game.

Look at what happened to Bama at unranked Texas. That was a noon game (11am local time)

UK didn’t just win… ..short handed, they beat UF handily… . again, while missing C-Rod.

Who else has a better win? Heck, ND lost at home to Marshall, aTm lost at home to app state.

If UK is 12-15th as some of you say, who are the 11-14 teams that should be ranked ahead? It seems like you guys are just saying that because it's UK football and it just doesn't feel right for UK to be that high, but this is a legit top 10 team right now at this point in the season.

It’s up to Stoops and the team from here on out. If they want to have a special season, they'll use last nights game as momentum and build off of it.
