1. Ray Davis was just one freakin’ broken tackle away from Ivy Joe Hunter’s (1987??) home record for rushing, and Moe’s program record of 299 yards at South Carolina in ‘95.
He’ll have other chances. That was a Heisman performance.
SEC defenses just don’t surrender 75 yard sprints, untouched to the end zone . . . . until they do.
2. Wallace’s Pick and Return. My favorite part was when he came face-to-face with an offensive player, and gave him a forearm jive to the chest, folding him like a cheap suit.
3. Line Play. Just dominant. There were 12 plays UK got sacks or TFL. At some point someone is going to come for Brad White, for a head-coaching spot, with a bag full of money.
Yenser? He can hold that head high, this week!!
4. Passing Game, 9 for 20? And who gives a sh!t! Games take on odd personalities. Every pass play had Leary, the receivers and the crowd asking themselves in the dark corners of their minds, “just why the f@&k are we passing the ball.” Our O-line looked pretty poor against lesser competition, and Stoops said it would be fixed.
It got fixed.
Our receivers will have a breakout game, hopefully next Saturday. Stoops says it will get fixed.
It will get fixed.
5. The Crowd.
Loud and got there early. As I posted on another thread, the Student Body was seated an hour (plus) prior according to my stadium neighbor. They were all in place when I sat 35 minutes before kickoff.
6. Mertz Passing: 25 of 30!!! Wow, for 14 points!!!! (See above snarky remark asking “who gives a sh!t.”) At that rate of efficiency, he would have had to go 85 of 90 . . . to lose by three!
7. So now I’m watching other SEC games.
And I hear a long-distance, ancient whisper from the football Angst of my life . . .”Defense wins Championships . . . Defense wins Championships.”
Only two or three SEC teams seem to be playing great defense, and one wears my favorite shade of Blue!
8. Fifty Yard Field Goal!!
—- and it would have been good from Fifty-And-One-Half!!
9. So, this UF team beat UT in Gainesville 29-16?
OK!!
10. I “pounded” my first stadium-purchased beer, but only upon Coach’s advice!!
Thereafter, I was loud and rowdy!
