The hits just keep coming
- Thread starter Dontworryboutit23
- Start date
I have seen ankle, turf toe, lower leg, so I guess everybody except a couple of people are guessing
I have concerns that Crod is in good enough game shape for anything over 20 to 25 carries.
I love the fact that UK has such great fans that will say our season is over if our backup has to play, yet bitch every week that our back up doesn't play. Pick one people. If our coach decides this kid or you should start at QB, either him or you need to go play. Why do our fans bitch so much?
It would still be nice if Sheron had previously had at least a dozen live game snaps before having to face a SEC opponent.
If Levis can't go, this will be a make or break game for the O line. We must control time of possession and create some lanes for CRod.
1. Stinks that Levis is possibly out...and even if he play....he's at best dinged up.
2. If Sheron is 2nd string....wow if true. We lose Beau Allen to Deuce Hogan...now Sheron is the backup? WTH...Sheron is not a great QB prospect from Somerset. The kid has a similar noodle arm to Beau Allen...
3. But this falls at the feet of the Oline. We all saw you can't have your QB taking these kind of hits game in and game out. Yes Levis has held the ball too long at times, Smoke/Wright have struggled to pick up protections at times, etc....but 75% of this on the Oline and Yenser.
In the end, we need to see the season unfold if the Oline doesn't really improve...then we need to take a long look at Yenser. Not being able to pick up simple stunts of the DE crashing down and DT looping outside...pretty basic thing as a former Oline. Why Cox is a hot mess at C is troubling when he was totally fine as guard in his first getting snaps last year, why Goodwin can't sniff snaps with the fiasco at the tackle spot (Kinnard and Landon Young were at least playable as true Fr at the tackle spot), etc... a lot of concern up front that will always be holding back the potential QBs, Dane Key, Barion Brown, etc...until we can deal with it up front.

Good thing the gamecock run defense is pitiable. Chris will run for 150 yds
It's funny reading some of this. We've had 3 straight days of 'Levis is terrible' and 'no pocket presence' . Now that he might not play now we're hearing how screwed we are. Apparently we've forgot last year's game. Levis was struggling at this point last year. The game plan was to just have him manage the game and not make risky throws. CRod and the defense won the game and if you ask me the game was never really in doubt. If Sheron or Hogan have to play Saturday, our game plan will be a mirror of what it was last year. And I believe both backups can win with riding CRod. We want Levis out there but let's be honest, we won last year and Levis wasn't a factor in the game.
We’ve heard the staff is quietly confident in the QB position, going forward (post-Levis).
Most assumed that either Hogan or a looming transfer was the reason for the confidence.
It might well have been confidence in Sheron, after all.
I hope he gets a shot to show what he can do, whether Saturday or later on.

This isn’t funny if it’s a joke. I was just starting to get excited for the weekend. Please Lord…
Not really. Stoops has been a secretive Coach regarding injuries since day one.
No telling really. He must have got a mild concussion on the helmet to helmet hit on the 1st fumble.
We win either way, Stoops will thrive in a run/defense game plus its in Kentucky.
17-10 UK.
Thought this too but then remembered the helmet to helmet hit. It was on the side of Levis’ head via the crown of the Ole Miss defender. Damn play wasn't flagged nor reviewed. UK has to beat the opposing team and the refs every dang game. I hate the SEC.

Football is like that. Someone will just have to step up. We're still going to win this game
Cute how people went from bashing our QB to all "woe is us" that he is questionable for the game. Now our season is over (just like it was before the UF game, after the NIU game, and just after the OleMiss game). Lol.
Jaquez Jones is listed as doubtful now.
Lynn Bowden Jr. 2.0, maybe run some wildcat with Brown back there.
I have to think it would take a full body cast to keep Levis off the field. If he didn't practice this week so far, fine. he knows the system, get Sheron some First team reps while he rests and heals. I'll believe he's not playing when I see it.
Or they bash our starter and talk about how he is overrated when he doesn't have a perfect game but then when he is hurt and possibly out then our season is over. 🤷♂️
Get him and JJ ready for State. We are at home, Carolina is Meh and we are deep at LB.Jaquez Jones is listed as doubtful now.
Id sit Levis as well if he is gimpy come Sat nite.
We can beat South Carolina at Ky without all three of them.
Not so much v State the following week.
If Sheron is the backup than it really tells you just how bad hogan and Allen sucked.
We have got to do better recruiting a qb

I was told this from someone who is often right about these things. Guess we’ll see.
Another point to add is if we lose to scar, Levi’s probably won’t come back. Why would he? Pretty much locked up getting drafted by second round. Guarantee he won’t risk injury and then our season will be officially screwed
Bingo! He doesn’t know anything more than anyone else. But damn he’s got rich acting like he does for sure
If it's a concussion he's not questionable he's out after what happened to Tua. If he hurt his leg on the safety it can be too bad since he played the rest of the game.
Yep we will take a huge step back after this season once Levis leaves.
I suppose we will get the Boise St QB from the TP but he is not all that.
