Game Day Thread!!!!!! Go Cats

Ridiculous..prevent defense only ever prevents a win in situations like this. I mean, prevent with 2:34 and the other team with all three timeouts and you throw prevent out there and rush three ? What in the **** ?!

Welp. Typical epic Kentucky football collapse. So much for positive offseason momentum.
Serious question here, but how much momentum does anyone really get from a game of this magnitude? If this was a playoff game I could see it. But momentum from a meaningless bowl lasting 9 months until next season? Sorry but I don't buy it.
 
Stats guy must've fell asleep for a while.

The game was lost because of the stupid decision to go prevent defense. The only thing it does is prevent the team that uses it from winning.
We wouldn't have been in that position had Leary not turned it over 2 times in a row!!!

Leary was a HUGE disappointment this season.

Of course the Brad White defensive strategy was HORRIBLE also, but it wasn't the reason we lost.

Last year was….checks notes…. LAST YEAR. He’s shit the bed this year. Period.
So let’s just fire him and burn the recruits he’s gotten. Give our guys on D time to hit the portal and get out of here. Right?

I know we feel emotional but you’re smarter than that

Anyone interested in what Stoops has to say in the freakin' post-game?
Nope.

Can’t blame this one on NIL either. Dabo doesn’t believe in it. So we didn’t lose to better talent today.

Just like this year is a prove it year for Cal, next year is a prove it year for Stoops.
 
You just don’t lose a game like this, the way it went down. We clearly got out coached. It could have been third and 50 and they would have gotten 49, we weren’t going to anyway. The 52 yard field goal was the moment we lost. It was a career long for their kicker and the bowl game. Kentucky is in on a lot of records in college football, unfortunately the bad side.

No, 4 TOs in the 4th quarter are why we lost.
N O because before the last two minutes the defense was allowed to play and they held up against the turnovers to where we could stilll have the lead

We were up with 2 minutes left when stoops pussy defense let them march right down the field rushing 3 and dropping 8

We see it EVERY game. Stoops prevented a win. Turnovers didn’t help but we were still a position to win even with them.



Also, stoops so stupid he didn’t go for two to go up 6. He’s just completely inept at making quick decisions when the game is on the line.
 
We gave them three straight short fields while not giving our defense any time to rest. Defense could have definitely been better, the TOs played the biggest role in Clemson’s 4th quarter.
That’s tru but you can’t run prevent all the way down the field like that. Even Leach’s color guy was saying how awful it was.

We need major changes at coaching positions and we didn’t get it.

Never going anywhere no matter who the coach is. Too many vastly superior programs in the SEC.
It isn't the program that is superior ... it's the personnel. Change the personnel. The fanbase is here waiting for pinheaded idiots in the athletic department to get off their collective asses and fix this mess. Stoops and Crew are jokes ... you know, personnel ... change that.

It's 50% of sports fans first reaction. Fire the coach.

We had four turnovers in our territory. Three of them were Leary. We have just one of those back and we probably win.

Bud, the stats speak for themselves. Whit has been horrible all season. Period.

Changes have to be made at coaching for this program to go anywhere. It’s not time for Stoops to go and I realize it’s logistically impossible to axe White more than likely but he’d be gone anywhere but here after a season like this.
