Despite the fact we are up 13, this was an awful half. Again, we've gotten lucky in a couple of cases. One of our long receptions was a lucky-as-hell circus catch after the Kentucky defender tipped what should have been an incompletion or an INT. Plus, Kentucky had some drops . . . until that last drive where they scored the TD. At that point, the Tennessee defense that has been so putrid the rest of the year finally showed up and made UK look incredible.
Dobbs still doesn't look worth a darn in the passing game. He looks BETTER in some ways, but still not much reason to have optimism about the future. Might be due to wide receivers (or lack thereof) or maybe not. I guess we'll have to wait and see next season how it plays out. At this point, I sure hope that Furgeson is good because everything else looks depressing. Dobbs won't take us anywhere with just his legs. He'll have to be able to pass to win and, let's face it, that's the one thing that he has shown that he can't do up to now.
Overall, very disappointing. Let's see if the team comes out in the second half and puts this away or - far more likely - makes this a close game and finds a way to lose in the end. Maybe I'm just too scarred from the garbage that I've watched this year (and for the last five seasons) to be objective, but this game has me hitting the whisky hard already.
