Well, of course we give up a TD right before the half

[gamecockcat]

Dominant first half that ends on a sour note. Seems like that has been consistent this year - last 4 minutes of the half we get owned.

Get the the ball to start the 2nd half, drive and score and we'll be fine.

Never would have guessed we'd be up comfortably if we'd only passed for 36 yards after 2 quarters.

Then stoops with great field position before half doesn’t trust his offense.

34 tics left.

23-7 and UK gets ball to start 2nd half.

And if thats not enough UF had momentum after the 3 and out by UK and the TD.

You dont make a mistake there trying to get greedy up 16. Stoops does one thing better than any other UK football coach in history….W-I-N.

Taking over on the 20 that would have been the right call but the 35, made no sense to not try and move into FG range there before half. Stoops continues to be his own worst enemy. Offense scores on opening drive we are good, we don’t and give up another drive then sphincter will begin tightening. Great first half, just amazing how we always fold the last two minutes.

Team doesn't shutout ranked opponent in first half. Never happened in football before. Bet this leads sportscenter..

The difference between Kentucky being a good sec team and a contender is that mentality right there. We re not going to be a serious contender until stoops leaves his comfort zone and expands his ability to coach situational football. He doesn’t know how to step on his competitors throat

 

[gamecockcat]

What's odd is that we used to own the 'middle 8' and now it seems we get owned those last 4 minutes of the half and first 4 of the second half.

It was a bad move dude and we are no conference threat with that mentality. Sorry bro

And pumper this game isn’t over. Could have made it a 3 score no wait a minute a legit contender would have taken advantage of that penalty and made it a 3 score game.

But the D was completely dominant for 27+ minutes and Florida goes right down the field with no problem? Gotta be either a personnel change or strategy change because this has happened all too often this year.

I thought about it too but ultimately it was the right decision when you consider we get ball to start 2nd half.

Thats the dif.

 

[ukalum1988]

We absolutely need to score on the opening drive of the second half. Do that and the game is close to being over. Otherwise it might turn into a nail biter.

35 seconds on the 35 yard line: I disagree... Try a chunk throw crossing route or down the sidelines.... Or a screen... something....

You never concede opportunities. Hopefully we come out and score but if we don’t then you make it more difficult on your team. That stuff leads to injuries. It’s why every season by mid way we lose a critical player or two. Run that score up whenever you can so you can play second string more and save our starters.

Leary has been off all season. We don't have Couch make there.
We are up 16 not down 16 plus we get the ball after half.
Trust in Stoops.

34 seconds at our own 35 up 23-7, UF with Uncle Mo and Leary off again and UK getting ball to start half. Risk/Reward not on our side there. Go Cats!

30-7. God forbid we let an SEC ranked team score.

Davis with 249 yds rushing and 4 TDs
Legendary performance.

 

[Blouman]

The field goal was BIG. Now we need the D to put the hammer down.
