Game Week 11: Kentucky at Texas

[fellside 1089]

Last year we looked really bad against Houston. Nearly lost to KState. Needed an AD miracle catch to close out TCU.

After all that frustration, we absolutely handled business against Tech and Oklahoma State, looking like a top team to end the season.

I'm predicting the same for this year. The team is going to peak at the right time and curb stomp Kentucky and A&M.

Did IBM recruit a lot of Wildcat grads or something? Feels like a random company/school connection.

There was an IBM plant in Lexington so many transferred down to Austin when it opened mid/late 60s. Dad transferred winter of ‘78. 

Lexington was the hq of the IBM printing division. This was spun off into Lexmark, which is still a major employer in Lexington.

Texas not only nearly lost to K State last year, but K State really should have won the game. It took their galaxy brain OC a whole half to realize running right into T'Vondre Sweat and Byron Murphy was a poor choice and that he should instead utilize his veteran QB to pick on Texas's horrid secondary. He never quit the QB power into the pair of NFL DTs on the other side, even in big moments late in the game.

Guess who calls the plays for Texas A&M this year?

As far as Kentucky goes, should be a snoozer even if clunky. Texas is just a significantly better version of their good defense and lacking offense. Unless Texas turns it over and gives Kentucky a short field multiple times I doubt the outcome is ever in doubt. I'd be surprised if Kentucky got past 10 unless it's garbage time.

Fuck aggy, but I’m pounding that line.

1-10 FCS Murray State sacked Brock Vandagriff 3 times on Saturday in a game where he only played the first half.

The only thing that gives me slight pause in this game is the fact that Kentucky played Murray State last week and had a bye the week before. So they will have been prepping Texas for 3 weeks.

It shouldn’t matter, but I’m sure they will have us well scouted with a few curveballs ready to go.

Kentucky hasn't scored more than 20 points on offense against any SEC team this year. Our defense is going to feast.

Why some of yall are saying this is a trap game is beyond me. These players aren’t looking ahead to the aggy game. It’s not a rival game like OU. All they know is that they are weird. Might as well be mizzou or Auburn to them.

Not the least bit concerned by this game. Not going to try to create something out of nothing here.
