I wonder how much his hamstring was a problem for him Saturday night in Columbia.If our defense plays like they did last night, we'll have a chance but we need to let Wan'Dale loose and throw to him as much as possible.

If UK comes out flat in the Florida game I will absolutely be done with Stoops. You cannot have a bigger game for UK and their chances for a great season than this one. If you aren't jacked up and ready to go at kick-off, you need to be playing another sport.
The fact that a lot of SEC analysts, keep hyping Kentucky up on their programs gives me faith that the Cats can not only keep it close, but pull off the W in Lexington.This.
I feel good about this game. Home at night, crowd will be LIT, team will be amped. We have the horses and mules to win a gritty slug fest type game.
FLA is not some unbeatable force and they’re not in the friendly confines of the Swamp.
UK plays a clean game, Cats win. It’s that simple really.
This thread feels like it’s full of quitters and handwringers.
Tenn stinks. They're 2-2 with wins against Bowling Green State and Tenn Tech.You all that are talking about the great Florida defense, do realize that Florida is 62nd in total defense, while Kentucky is #9 right? I realize Alabama is a stronger offense than Missouri, but thats with our UTC clunker in factored in, and do we really consider Tennessee a HUGE upgrade over South Carolina?
Not to mention they may get some of the 6 back for some added depth.Kentucky's defense looked elite in the last game and that alone can keep us in the game. Add to that the ability to add a lot more offensive punch then we have in similar matchups in past I think the game is pretty close to dead even with Florida having a slight edge on overall talent.
Therefore the outcome will most likely hinge on the unforeseeable - penalties, turnovers, injuries etc.
Florida: 28
Kentucky: 34
They're 62nd in total defense through 4 games, UK is 9th.Florida defense doesn't look great to me this year and they still have the same Grantham problem. I am however quite concerned about our defense and keeping contain both on Emory Jones running and the Gators run a jet sweep that could go for massive yardage. We have not been good at the edges.
I keep seeing people on the internet complain about Jones as a passer but he's looked more than adequate to me.
I agree with this. My feeling is: Yea, FLA has slightly better talent at a few positions, but our chances at winning are no longer reliant on dumb luck during the game. We have the dudes, in most positions, to compete. Like I mentioned IF we can play clean, we win. Mistakes need to be minimal IF we can't force any on defense.Statistically the line of -8 is fair. However I always adjust the line based on the anticipated emotion, energy and effort that each team will bring to this game. The vibe I get from reading a few of the players tweets today as these guys are really charged up for this game and I expect that will have the edge in this game in that regard.

We seem to never play well against a QB that can run the ball. FL and TN will present problems in that regard.
I am hoping Jordan Rodgers is right when he said on Marty and McGee Saturday that Kentucky is a terrible matchup for Florida, because of the variety of things UK can do on offense.

Richardson should be a go for Saturday, so y’all will get to see him throughout the game
He is a monster in the run game and can throw a pretty beautiful pass too. We’ve generally had Emory run the first two series and Richardson comes in for the third series. Him and Emory together is a pretty nice 1-2 combo to have lol.Excellent! To be the best you want to play the best. He presents all kinds of challenges we need to face to get better

A lot of people overlook Kentucky, but y’all give us a pretty good game most seasons
Coen needs to do a lot of shifting and get the matchup he wants and bomb them deep! Remember Steve Johnson and crew against UL? Believe it was 2016.
Yeah Saturday is the moment of truth for Stoops.If UK comes out flat in the Florida game I will absolutely be done with Stoops. You cannot have a bigger game for UK and their chances for a great season than this one. If you aren't jacked up and ready to go at kick-off, you need to be playing another sport.
He went as far on SEC Nation to say due to the variety of things UK can do on offense, that UK is a worse matchup for Georgia's defense than Florida or Alabama.He's right.

Looks like them Gators will have some players back off of injuries, their Oline was banged up vs UT. Wouldn’t be surprised to see them play Richardson a bit either, if in fact he’s back to 100% from hamstring strain.

I think a big part to keep in mind is Florida is coming off to back to back physical games against Bama and Tennessee.
Could see a bit of letdown physically from them out of the gate.
Or they may shut down if we smack in the mouth early.Or a let up if they have any success early. No tellin
