Somehow we can't take advantage of any of our three night games at home, but complain because you have to play a hostile environment on the road in one. We lost to Vandy and a bad Auburn team at home and they had a hostile environment. More excuses for a lousy season. We have played one team at night on the road this season and it was against a bad Florida team. This team is in disarray.
 
well we had four straight.
That shouldn't be.
They use us for ratings. Has something to do with it so I guess you know... Whatever.

Talk about deflecting...

Half of those have been at home. We had two of the worst SEC teams for night home games and we were 0-2. No need to complain about "hostile" environments when you can't beat Vandy and Auburn at home. We have an above average home crowd for our record and we still can't win.

How can he teach a team to face adversity, when he bitches about what he perceives as adverse conditions in terms of start times ?? It is the same for both teams ... get your team ready, show up and play the games. Geez ...

We have lost like 7 sec home games n a row.

The fans deserve better.

Agree. We have played some bad teams at night this year, and couldn't take advantage of it. Why cry when someone else gets the same opportunity?
 
Both teams play the game at the same time, if you can’t get up for a National Televised Game under the lights there is a problem. I think Stoops would rather win the 1200 games and stay out of the limelight, it puts to much pressure on him and the team when they are prime time.
 
They've been playing night games for decades, ever since they installed lights at football fields. He knew that before he got into coaching. If he doesn't like them then he needs to go coach little league on Saturday mornings.
 
They put those big lights on the stadium for a reason. Night games are awesome.

Plus, I didn't hear him bitching when fans filled Commonwealth at night in 2014 and urged his team on to victory over USCjr. I seem to remember that being the start of his turn around.

Sounds more and more like Calipari every single day!

You’d know 😂
You came here on your own volition. You're going to get what you want...big Sat night crowd, TV, 100K drunks crowded into Pilot's Lot Lizard Field, weak opponent already down 13 players including 6 defensive starters, Chumlee's Stoops Hate on display, likely Buffet Josh's last shot at a Stoops....my god, what more could you want? Name the score, anything less than a total rout will be a Rocky Flop.
 
I believe SEC/TV put the least attractive game in the 745p SECN time slot. W/o hard data, I bet the combined records of teams that play then would be the lowest in the conference. It's for those who can't get enough of SEC football no matter how poor the teams' records are.

Don't even get the Cole Cublick and Jordan Rogers crew any longer at 7:45. Not a fan of Zar and Stinchcomb- boring, boring and boring.
 
My problem with the 7:45 is the game never starts on time. It usually doesn't until after 8pm. I am older and game ending at 11:30-45 is late for me especially when I am watching a boring, bad product.
