Some facts for those who dont understand college football

No, the line was not getting blown off the ball when we were scoring. I watched the game again this morning. After several touchdowns, the first words from the analysts mouths were "Great blocking here by the offensive line" or the wide receivers in some cases, followed by a replay that shows good blocking. Stop exaggerating.
THANK YOU Rhavicc....you have to wonder what people are watching. Our Freshman LT had a few learning experiences but did a good job for his first College game.

And I will throw in the DL which was pretty good, they got their scores from two Freshman LBer's that were so out of position it killed us. But as coach said these are fixable issues and they will learn.

I have to second this comment..our OL was not getting blow off the ball at all. They had 3 drives where we couldn't run the ball on early downs but for most of the game...we ran it all over ULL and not much pressure on Towles in passing game.

The comments to take out the big runs...the big runs are part of the game...and UK hit on 4 pretty big runs...hardly just 1 big run. UK simply ran for 178 yards at 6.8 YPC. Kemp average 11 yards a carry and Horton 4.7 yards a carry. I really didn't have all that big an issue with the OL..GAA was confused a bit at times which is common for a newcomer...but the Swindle and Toth really looked good to me.
 
Boom averaged 3.4 yards/carry on the 8 carries for 27 yards.
McGuire netted 86 yards on 27 carries for the entire game for an average of 3.2 yards/carry. On those 8 carries Boom did better than McGuire for the entire game. Kentucky's plan was to take McGuire out of the game and they did.

Uh, did you forget about the 75 TD run from scrimmage? BOOM!
