No more moral victories.
Exactly moral victories went out the window a while ago!
 
Not like there’s a lot of good plays for 4th & 20, but did we not have something we could at least attempt besides a shallow cross? Literally the only way that could have generated a 1st down was a facemask on the tackle.

We just gotta figure out this NIL thing. It’s really hard.

And I know many of us alive today will be dead and gone but we gotta give Bush til 2050 to get his guys.

Until then, all us peasants should continue being happy with .500 and below records.

This game was PROOF positive that our offense is just NOT up to winning at a consistent level. the WHOLE Stoops philosophy is NEVER going to win at the level needed in today's game. ALL of the rules favor the offense. So WHY doesn't he VALUE scoring more??!!!

His brother Bob sure did!!!

The sad thing is we got as many breaks as anyone could have hoped for with missed FGs, UT turnovers, etc. A 10 point loss is our high water mark. If we played them 10 times, we would lose the other nine games by 3+ TDs IMO.
Your point is well-taken but UT showed some chinks in their armor tonight. They might pull it together but I think they’re vulnerable as a playoff team.
 
Keep working hard, hit the weights. These boys just need another off-season to get it right. 10 wins twice boys... Kentucky can't do no better.... Probation wins taken away dont count because I said so and stoops earned em fair n square
I bet at least 90% of the people on this board could do a better job than Stoops. We need a change and need a change in the worst of ways!

Tough to see them stay in the game late only to close like this. Not happy with state of things, but not sure about running off coach either.
As far as I am concerned, CMS broke faith with UofK last year with the aborted move to A&M. He is played out IMO. "Want to" means a lot and I am not seeing much out of him, his staff, and much of his team.

The only problem is confidence in the AD and his hit or miss hiring practices is low I think.

If we can navigate buyouts, AD and HC positions could use some new energy.
 
Proud of the team for playing their assets off. This team hasn't given up. The play calling is disappointing. The OL is a year away. It's a shame they've been so close to putting things together and just haven't. Very disappointed for the players.

Passing game still killing us. Should've taken the FG early and run the damn ball later. So close and yet so far away

WE showed some chinks in their armor. Our staff found them. Our players exploited them. We just couldn't finish the game offensively. Don't know where to go from here

Can't recruit a HS QB & develop him into a quality starter. OL is woeful. If not recruiting, what is it? Can't be lack of depth after a dozen years to develop it. Stoops would be a topnotch DC. That's his limit.

Love ya, girt, but 'the OL is a year away' line cracked me up. A year away from what? We lose both Cox (M and E), Ford and Mincy. The younger players, for the most part, haven't seen many/any snaps so we have no idea what we've got. Would not surprise me in the least to see several transfer out. I can't see anything but another step back next year on the OL, truthfully. They've been way below expectations this year and we lose a ton of experience.

With graduation and transfers, the majority of this team that has played significant snaps may not return next year. We could really be awful next year, like Joker bad.
