'21 Recruiting Forum: Official Kentucky Pregame/Game Thread

[Volnut]

Chizik just said that there are teams (Pitt/uf) that are really glad that they got UT early in the season before we had it figured out

Had Hooker started the PItt game, we would have won.

Hey, It’s great to be a Tennessee Volunteer

 

[Jackcrevol]

Chizik: they’re in crisis mode in Gainesville… defcon1

 

[Ten_Titans]

It didn't take that long for South Carolina fans to think they were better than Spurrier, and Kentucky fans think they are better than Stoops.

Hope they fire him. Vandy needs some competition at the bottom of the barrel.

That was gut check win, just kept swinging and gashed them.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

So glad we won...but what the heck happened to our defense? If you had told me pre-game we would score 45 I would have thought we won by three TDs.

I mean...crap happens and sometimes you just get a teams best shot..but..

 

[VOLSONLY]

He wants to get fired. There's no other explanation.

Yep I think so too. Daydreaming of a big buy out check?

This game went just like you called it.

Attrition.Playing with what,75 players on scholarship?And some of our best players from last year jumping ship on us? I’m proud of the ones we have left!

Not really...it was a tossup, but I did not think UK could score that much..like I said, if you told me we would score 45, I would have assumed a blowout. I thought if we won it would be a 31ish-24ish kind of score.

I really don't care though, I am just super excited we won...I feel extremely relieved and I think this staff can do great things down the road if a few great HS kids would just take a chance on us.

I don't understand why they can not see what is happening and the massive opportunity here.

Oh well...Heupel is just going to have to do it the hard way, and I really hope it doesn't burn him and the staff out getting us there.

 

[TennSam]

And I don’t care what Ty Chandler did for North Carolina today.He could have stuck it out here and had a brilliant game for us tonight!

71 scholarship players. Our defense is put together with duct tape and chewing gum. Get depth and keep Banks and we are going to be nasty.

I agree, but I didn't see that team scoring 42 on us...that is nuts.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

A badass Evan Engram style TE would be awesome in this offense with everything else we have going with it. Freeze Ole Miss offense used to be similiar scheme wise and it was a killer. Layers on Layers.

They played to their strength and our weakness, running in the trenches. They went away from it after halftime, and it cost them. That was by far one of worse defensive games.

 

[xtremevolfan]

Was it ever confirmed that Hyatt stepped out? Not sure espn ever showed a replay. Our tempo may have cost us one.

But our team still had the will to win.That’s heart man!

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

No but they showed Payton’s knee down about 15 times on a 2 yard gain. The DA color guy broke it down like the damn Bigfoot footage.

No. I say he did not step out but the refs whistled it dead so it wouldn't have been reviewable anyway.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Their first TD...dude literally was holding Banks by the throat. So far watching replay they have committed egregious holds on 3-4 plays right in front of the refs.

I went back on replay and he did at 30. Way out and was before he made move on defender.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Jeez...UK is holding or blocking in the back on every freaking play. Refs did their job well...
