Enjoy those moral victories, we’ve had more than our share.
He’s coached like one his entire 12 years here. Tonight was full on vagina on display.
Hopefully this fool’s gold moral victory will trick someone into hiring him like they did with Cal. Barnhart isn’t likely serious enough about winning like other SEC AD’s to fire him. It will probably take a 3 win season where no one shows up to the last game to force his hand.
I will to the point Im not ignorant enough to get on here and dis the coach after a great overall performance tonight.
There’s a whole lot more people who agree with me than you.
And they’re all Kentucky fans. The same ones that people believe don’t know crap about football, too
Read the post after yours. Stoops is the talk of the nation tonight. Fans and media across the country talking how big of a coward he is and they’re right. Your decision lost the game so I’d just shut up if I were you.
That decision did not lose the game. What would you have said WHEN he went for it and didn’t get it?
Moral victories are for losers. But there’s something to be said about avoiding total disaster today because I was expecting 35-6. Turns out we have a pulse and the ability to improve from one week to the next.
Ok Lombardi. Your at home, your 24.5 point dogs, your down by 1 at midfield with 3 minutes to play. Your defense, while they have played their ass off has forced only 1 GA punt the entire 2nd half which was mainly due to a botched snap. The chances of holding GA deep in their territory are slim to none and if we get the ball back we will likely have little time remaining with no timeouts left. Why not take a chance there to make a play to put yourself in position to win the game? Why is the smart play to turn it over to the Defense and hope you hold without a first down because one is all it really takes and it’s ballgame. Let’s hear your knowledge, I promise you we will all understand, you will not talk over our heads. Now GO!!!!
I had us at 6-6. I hope we can still pull it off. I feel better about that after this game.
Because taking the chance puts even more pressure on your tired defense when you don’t get it and you wouldn’t have gotten it then, either. Not to mention, WHEN UGA scores on that drive it eliminates you completely from the game. I think most would be upset if he did go for it and not get it.
Why is the defense tired? For the past 9 minutes of game action they have been on the field for 3 plays and 1:15.
It still feels like someone telling us “Well, at least you didn’t get punched in both nuts”.
The NFL, punting is the right call, no one will argue with you there. At UK with a big upset on the line, punting is not the right call but if stoops had it to do over again he’d do the exact same chicken shit thing.
Nobody with an ounce of sense in the Milky Way Galaxy expected us to win this game.
It wasn’t the right call. It was a judgement call by Stoops and it failed. It gave us 9 seconds to go 75 yards with no timeouts. We only needed 8 yards to try and milk the clock and kick it for the lead. If we don’t get it then Georgia is just a little closer. The defense would have had a bigger sense of urgency and Georgia would have just tried to milk clock anyways. A Georgia score and we still had a shot to tie or win with more time on the clock. Instead they got to waste 3 minutes of clock and pretty much eliminate our chances.
You’ve clearly never been punched in both nuts
Both defenses were tired at the end of that game. That’s typically what happens that late in the game. I believe the announcers even mentioned it, too
HOW do you know we wouldn’t have picked up the first down? We actually moved the ball better than Georgia if you were even watching.
It WAS the right call for reasons I mentioned in my previous post. How would you have felt having 9 seconds needing to score ant least 4 instead of 2?
Because of the down and distance. That means it was 4th down and 8. Also, we didn’t drive it well on that drive, though
I wouldn’t argue with you that we didn’t make enough big plays. However that punt wasn’t one of them
UK may not have gotten it, in fact I’ll give it to you that they most likely wouldn’t have. No one here would complain about going for it, probably a lot of complaining about the shitty play call that would have been made but still you have to TRY. Punting there is basically conceding the game which we have seen stoops do on more than one occasion.
