* Keep this brief tonight ... Cats extremely fortunate to win tonight and avoid what could have potentially been the worst loss in my memory, and that's saying something.. You just can't show up to play with 6 minutes to go in the game ... they got away with it tonight. Give them credit, they made a comeback tonight I didn't see happening after those first 3.5 quarters of football.

* CJ Johnson - really, really good football player. Relentless. Another tremendous performance with double digit tackles by a DT ... very impressive.

* Dorian Baker is a big time player. Towles arguably threw the ball to the wrong player on the game tying TD (had an open RB in the flat on the play), but Baker made a catch that could just as easily been knocked away. That was a huge, huge play for this UK football team and Stoops.

* Cats need to learn a lesson tonight - a UK football team can never believe in their mind that they can just show up and win. When you think you are better than you are you will get beat. They need to learn and live that lesson - when you are UK football you have to fight every day, every game, every play, with your very best effort.

* Need to get Boom back with his head straight, our FG kicker back, our OL to get healthy, and our QB to start making consistent smart decision making to go along with his physical ability.

* Up Next: UK vs. Auburn in Commonwealth Stadium, in 12 days on a Thursday night. It is going to be a great opportunity for the Cats to play what I hope is their best game of the year thus far and give themselves a chance for a huge win.
