I don't think you all are better than last year and you all went down hill after our game. UK returns 17 starters and essentially the entire team that beat Louisville and went 4-4 in the SEC.I predict USM covers the spread but still falls short to UK 31-24. I am basing this on the fact the UK dline has improved this year. IF the Eagles quarterback has no turnovers and the USM dline is as good as billed, then the Eagles have shot to make this game a tossup. Treat this game as if you're about to play Mizzou, Arkansas, or Vandy. You will see as much if not more athletism compared to last years team. If UK does manage to win, which on paper at least should, treat it as a good dress rehersal for SEC play.
You didn't face the real UK team last year. You will in 2 weeks. I expect a 17+ point win. Good luck with Benny, you'll need it.I predict USM covers the spread but still falls short to UK 31-24.

Your QB is gone so him being hurt last year is mute when talking about the upcoming game. Your d line is going up against a strong offense that can rack up points. Our QBs are experienced and our play makers are talented.Lack of size and depth on our dline and our qb getting hurt cost us at least 3 games last year. The dline is markedly improved and athletically USM is actually better. That being said, breaking in a new qb against an SEC team that I think can win 8 games minimum is a very tall task. Had USM played UK later in the year, the result could definitely been different.
And we have some of the best LB's in the nation.Your QB is gone so him being hurt last year is mute when talking about the upcoming game. Your d line is going up against a strong offense that can rack up points. Our QBs are experienced and our play makers are talented.
True, ito smith isn't going to have another field day against UK.And we have some of the best LB's in the nation.

if we get behind your team then I definitely can see the heat being a factor! If we(UK) get ahead early then it becomes less of a factor. Happy players won't pay as much attention to the heat as would struggling players trying to play catch up. I am one Cat fan that thinks you can win again,can! I don't expect it but we shall see! What ever the score I am sure that both teams will compete!I like it! Hope your team over looks the Golden Eagles again like their fans obviously are. I think it will be a close game for 2-1/2 to 3 quarters and then the conditioning and heat take over for some late Kentucky turnovers. 31-21 USM
I get the distinct impression you think the team you played last year is similar to the team you're about to face. It isn't.I'd say a 10 point or less margin of victory. Our guys remind me of the great defensive teams of 80s that took down great opponents. That said UK will be one if the better teams to ever visit Hattiesburg and a UK victory wouldn't surprise me but is not guaranteed. Can't wait!
Truth! After game 3 last year we did make a major turn around!I get the distinct impression you think the team you played last year is similar to the team you're about to face. It isn't.
well I will NEVER forget how hot it was in the Swamp last year and if it's anything like that then it could be a major factor! Just different than KY hot!I don't buy into any heat factor this time of year, if we were to lose it won't be because of the heat
It's literally 110-120 degrees on our field when it's 90-95 degrees outside. We have field turf and it has those little black rubber pellets in it. You can feel it burning through the bottom of your shoes after you stand on it for a few minutes. Our guys have been practicing on it in the heat of the day, your guys haven't, not to mention the 80 percent humidity. Heat will be a factor.I don't buy into any heat factor this time of year, if we were to lose it won't be because of the heat
