No Spring Game for Kentucky

[LouderVol]

Exactly. If they want to scrimmage, they will. And the closed scrimmages are far more valuable than the "fan day" spring games because they actually run things that they won't show the public. Spring games are just advertisements. Starters are taken out by halftime, if they even play at all. The notion that this will affect UK's season in a negative way is ridiculous.

But yeah, maybe if Tennessee had held a spring game in 2022, the Vols would have made the CFP.

Man if cancelling the O&W game is all it takes to get 11 wins I say we just go ahead and cancel all of them.

I didn’t say they did. Read it again, before you declare my stupidity. It’s one more scrimmage. Every scrimmage is that valuable.

They're not losing a scrimmage they're just not having an open to the fans "spring game".

KY won't go 7-5 without the extra reps in the Spring game.

You are seriously making fun of Kentucky and you live in OHIO? Dear God man........

Kentucky is a purgatory that can’t decide whether it wants to be part of the midwest or part of the south. Two major cities, neither of which are anything to write home about and both of which are in the far northern part of the state, leaving miles and miles of nothing after you cross the border from Tennessee. Nothing but coal mines and horse crap. The distilleries are nice though.

Ohio has three large, vibrant cities and two other…okay ones (Dayton and Toledo) rolling hills and fall leaf color in the northeast that rival anything I’ve seen outside the Smokies, Lake Erie. And yes, a lot of corn and soybean fields. It ain’t East TN, Northern California, Colorado, or Bavaria, but it’s not the rust belt hell some of you southern supremacists act like it is.

Agree. And Cincinnati is a great town.

Ohio also features the worst interstates I’ve ever driven, at least back when I was traveling from greater metropolitan Terre Haute IN to watch my daughter play college soccer.

Have to imagine them not having a spring game will show up on the field come fall. Their days of outperformance with stoops might be numbered.

Seriously?

As a native Tennessean who lives in Ohio and makes frequent trips to visit family, I’d be happy if we could just excise Kentucky right out of the map/tectonic plate and let the Ohio river be the northern border of Tennessee. Just butt Cincinnati right up to Jellico.

I like Cincinnati, it was actually a fun place to visit, that and Columbus.. but I’m going to have to say I also enjoy visiting Lexington and Louisville whomp whomp

I will allow anyone in any state other than Kentucky and Alabama to make fun of Kentucky. This world needs more people making fun of Kentucky, now more than ever. It’s what our forefathers intended.

It's actually what Columbus had in mind

Sorry dude, everybody agrees your take is ridiculous.
