'20 Recruiting Forum: Official Kentucky Pregame/Game Thread

[clt_tiger]

UK beat Missippi St 24-2. This sounds good until you realize Missippi ST threw 6 ints. 24 points with the help of 6 turnovers is awful offense, and Pruitt has proven he can shut down 1 dimensional offensives. Unfortunately I think our offense continues to struggle as we try to fix what was exposed against UGA. We will win this game. 20-13 VOLS.

9-2 Vols. Cimaglia has a breakout game.

I was frustrated, aggravated, and agitated with the second half of the Georgia game. Then I recalled how Missouri and Vanderbilt were regularly taking us to the woodshed even worse. We ain’t where we want to be, but we ain’t where we were. We are moving in the right direction. Now let’s have Kentucky be who they always are and accept a comfortable 24-7 win.

Weird to have Kentucky week in October!

Keys to victory: Limit penalties, Max protect if we have to, and give Eric freaking Gray eleventy-billion touches please.

Play a different QB?

 

[gordonr24]

I don’t think Kentucky will score a lot on our defense. I like our offense more, which is weird to say after our performance against Georgia. If we score more than 20, we certainly win.

2 can win this game. He needs to get back on the horse and beat a good opponent. If he can’t beat Kentucky, I agree. We may need to move on.

 

[SSVol]

So no different uni’s and the same horseshit Qb... got it. Sounds exciting

If your basis for excitement is a special uniform, that's already kinda sad. Just sayin.

It’s not my excitement that’s needed, it’s the recruiting aspect. Thanks though, opinionated old guy.

you just can't let GA beat us twice.

i think this week it's probably a good thing we play at noon.

i think we come out a bit pissed off and frustrated, and smack UK around a bit....not always pretty, but defense makes a couple of big plays....we come out and get physical offensively....and it think somebody has a break out game offensively.....may not be a ball carrier/skill guy...but somebody asserts themselves on offense, and makes an impact.

I almost feel bad about the beat down UK is about to receive. JK. UK hasn’t impressed me at all this season. They’re a 4-6 football team, at best.

you feelin ok?

Don’t really care about the score. I think we’ll win by a TD or so.

Anyway, we HAVE to see another QB in this game. Someone needs to be ready. The fact no other QB has gotten snaps - even if you think JG has been good - is baffling.

Sounds unlikely judging by Pruitt's comments and the way he kept in JG vs Missouri.

Especially when this year is a gimme.

Especially when this year is a gimme.

There is a little leeway, but this year is far from a gimme.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I mean in terms of playing younger players, doesnt affect eligibility.

look we did it last year.

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

A little concerned Kentucky will follow UGA’s blueprint and blitz the hell out of JG. They won’t be as successful at it, but they don’t need to be in order to force a turnover or two and swing the game. I’m back in see it to believe it mode with our QB, so I think we see a lot of close, low scoring games from here on out, as JG has only put more than 24pts on the board once in his career vs SEC opponents.

Kentucky doesn't have 5* secondary like Georgia, so if they load the box against the run, then they risk the long ball.

I noticed Maurer moved up to #2 on the depth chart, so he must be doing better and getting healthier. I believe Strout was the #2.

They didn’t have a 5 star secondary last year either and we struggled plenty.

Yes its Kentucky but I have a bad feeling.

BVS, take bofa deez and call me in the morning.

Don't think we will. We had that same chance vs mizzou after a late emotional week 1 win and came out firing.

This doesn't seem to be a team that will let emotions get in the way week to week. We are veteran in the right spots and will take care of business, though maybe it's a bit ugly.
