Game Day Thread!!!!!! Go Cats

I haven’t been this mad at UK losing a game in a long time. Unbelievable piss poor coaching. Although with Stoops I shouldn’t be surprised.

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.
The game was lost because we had 4 turnovers and they had 1. Plus dingles face mask penalty was back breaking. It’s easy to blame the defense because that’s the last thing we saw. But the prior mistakes are what put us in the position we were in.
 
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.
It’s a bunch of things. But you can’t let a team march down the field like that. We kept give 10-15 yard cushions. You don’t win games that way. And you could say, “Eh it’s a one off” but it isn’t. We’ve lost way to many games with this “bend don’t break, but actually breaking” defense.

We've won quite a few games with that defense too.

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.
Lol you really think Clemson doesn't have more talent lol

Winning percentage at minus 3:
  • -3 219-1156--0.15927

16 percent. I wonder what the number would be with the minus 3 coming in the last 6 minutes.

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.
The only stat you need to know is 4 turnovers on our side of the field. Ballgame

The offense cost us too many possessions and put our D behind the eight ball.

Dingles penalty wasn't back breaking unless we don't have enough discipline. The official missing the defender facemasking Dingle on the same play is a bitch though
 
Against anyone good? I hate saying that but name one good team we beat this year (UofL doesn’t really count).
Man I'm not counting anything for this year. This year our offense was Ray Davis and prayers, and it's hard to win football games when your QB is Devin Leary. It's not like the defensive philosophy has changed over the years.

I'm taking the longer view of this. Stoops has won twice in the Citrus Bowl with this defense.

The officials let Clemson hold literally the entire game. Did they have one holding call?

Fine. No excuse for next year though.

Absolutely NONE. I’m tired of both our major programs deciding not to show up when it matters.

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.
The mood in BBN was very sour before we beat Louisville. Beating the dirty birds, plus the drama with Stoops possibly going to aTm, seemed to energize folks again.

That's all kind of wiped out by pissing away a bowl win against what is arguably a marquee program, even if that program had a down year. 8-5 looks a helluva lot better than 7-6. Many of the problems that manifested during the regular season were blatantly evident again today, so the team/staff wasted an opportunity to get them corrected.

Next season is a new slate of games, sure, but ending the season this way just creates the perception of a program that is, at best, stuttering.
 
Didn’t help for sure. But we had the lead did we not? Had to get ONE stop on the last drive and couldn’t do it. That’s what happens when you leave 10yard cushions. You get picked apart.
That’s also what happens when you’re defense is on the field continuously because of 4 turnovers and quick scores by our offense.

You keep Clemson under 13 points the 1st 3Q by not playing soft, then you go soft and make a HORRIBLE red zone offense look like miracle workers.

Your offense goes anemic first, and then schizophrenic and turns the ball over 3x in the 4th quarter.

Now that's a clusterfk, and a microcosm of the season really. If we played like we were behind FOR AN ENTIRE FCKING GAME ONE MOTHERFKN TIME under this staff, we'd beat the LIVING SHYTE out of some people. NOT that this coach is capable of thinking that way, but ffs SOMEBODY slap him and TELL HIM that.
