Piddling conference? Check
Piddling facilities (in comparison)? Check
Tough place to recruit? Check
Huge in-state football powerhouse who gets all the best recruits in their backyard? Check
Would kick UK's ass by 2+ touchdowns this year? Unfortunately, check
How? There is absolutely no reason for us to have an inferior team to UC - none. While we play in a much harder conference and therefore won't necessarily have a better record, this year (and a few other recent years), UC has the better team and would kick our ass. Something's wrong and I don't believe it's just QB. On paper, there is no way their roster was ranked as high, had as many P5 offers, etc. as UK's. But, they're better. Somebody's got some 'splainin' to do, imo.
