Is anyone surprised that we gave up yet another TD right before the half?

So tired of the way we play defense at the end of the half. Soft, soft, soft zone with no pressure and, yep, another TD right before half.

Damn. What happened after the first quarter? Had them on the ropes, dominating both LOS and now? In another dogfight with Missouri.

Stoops didn’t want to run up the score. After seeing the same rerun for 11 years or whatever, I feel pretty stupid thinking anything will ever change.

That's what happens when you gave one HC with 4:44 left looking to kill clock to get to half vs a HC with 1:49 is looking to score a TD!!!!!!!!
 
How many times does something have to happen before you realize whatever you’re doing ain’t it? A TD before the half in a UK is damn near a sure bet. I doubt Vegas would take bets on it at this point. Jesus.

Cover 3 with big cushions, trying to avoid the big play, is giving points away. Coaches can go in the game knowing the can a least score b4 the half on us. Something gotta give. Maybe in the bye week we can figure it out.

Just really felt they would score again with just over a minute to go after that poor punt. Sadly, the story of Kentucky football. Were better, as a program, than we were in the past. But, I think we have seen the ceiling on what Stoops can do.
 
We give any team that wants five yards a free five yards.

Problem is we don’t change that strategy on 3rd and 5

^Do not understand that strategy at all. We've given them 5-7 yards all night long by giving a cushion on every wideout. Not even trying to adjust. 2 TDs down, it's over.
