Well we will win 2 games at least in the final 6...so better than the last two seasons.

Yeah, I think UK gets to 6 wins this season. Mizzou looks god awful against any program that is not FCS, and Austin Peay should be a lock win. Heck, UK gets UGA at home, and if UGA gets run over by UF this week the dawgs may just roll over and play dead the rest of the season so UK could get 7 wins. None of the teams UK has beaten so far are any good; they all are actually pretty bad, so hard to tell just how much UK has actually improved, but still getting to a bowl should quiet the masses after that 0-2 start. And winning certainly helps with momentum regardless of the quality of the wins.

Yeah I agree. But part of making progress in the SEC is finally getting past some of these other bottom tier schools. In the past few years we were lucky to win one or two. We've won 3 so far so I'll take that and give Stoops some credit. I still don't think Stoops has had his "big win" yet though. Would be nice to finally do it this season, although UL and UT have about a 99% chance of winning. We've come close to UF, MSU, and UL the last couple years so I have a tiny amount of hope.

the couple of years they made the music city bowl they packed the place out.

lol yeah true. I didn't take into consideration that they've been to 15 bowl games in their history. Might as well go watch them play; never know when the next opportunity is going to come.

That's true, and I wasn't implying that UK hasn't improved under Stoops; only that it is hard to tell how much considering the quality of those opponents. But yes, UK has 3 wins in the SEC to date and have only played 5 SEC games, so I understand the enthusiasm. It's only been a handful of years ago that UT fans would have been excited at 3 SEC wins.

I just hope Stoops doesn't get his big win against UT, thank you very much, and ruin our season. I would love to see UK smack the dawgs though just to see UGA fans melt over losing to Vandy and UK in the same season.

That would be an epic melt for a fanbase that is already doing some serious melting this season.
