So- basically like Georgia the last 5 years?  

Last year they had to play two top 10 teams in Ole Miss & Missouri and top 20 Tennessee which automatically puts them at a tougher schedule than we will have by years end with only 2 ranked teams on the schedule.

Attempts to polish the turd will not work but to be fair Tennessee got the exact same schedule (we have 7 common opponents) just swap Aggy for Bama.

Why do you think I have any interest in being fair to these cousin-fucking, meth-slinging, losers in this bullshit digs we now live in?

All I’ve heard forever is about how hard it is to win there because the teams in the conference are so awesome- so we went in and gave the biggest bully in the conference, Saban, the biggest buttfucking of his Bama career.

After that all I heard was, but Wulaw- it’s about the meat grinder. Won’t somebody think of the meat grinder?  

1 year in and I am as unimpressed with that meat grinder as I ever was with Bama.
 

These fucking assholes are all hat/no cattle and our default position to any interaction with them should be mockery and ridicule.

We’re going to roll aggy at home this year.  Mark it down!

By the end of the year we will have played  and beat between 5-6 teams with winning records. And unlike many of the teams in the SEC, half of our wins against winning teams will be because of the FBS teams we scheduled OOC. The SEC put rivalries in front of SOS, as they should.

It's basketball season at UK and nobdoy gives a flying fuck about UK football once the first game tips off.  Horns roll against an unmotivated, unsupported, and checked out UK football team.  I echo the shutout predictions.

My daughter (no pics) went to UK and lives in Lexington. She works in the thoroughbred racing industry, so she didn't go to UT although accepted. Still a UT fan, though.

Anywho, she says American and Delta have both added non-stop LEX-AUS flights. She usually wears a TEXAS hat while at horse auctions and farms and most people she meets say they are coming to Austin for the game. All this to say Kentucky does care and should have a decent turnout. But no one is predicting a UK victory, which terrifies me. 😳

But UK can't win this game. Only Texas can beat themselves with more penalties, turnovers and busted coverages than the Vandy game.

Agree it's more about Texas preparation and how the Horns play.  If we limit mistakes and execute, Texas wins.

Because of IBM being in Austin there used to be a decent UK representation in Austin, always a good so!I'd turnout for UK watch parties at Showplace Lanes, Mexican restaurant up north off I35 and then eventually to some pub near Pluckers off Burnet.  Plus, Austin is Austin so that should bring in some folks for the experience.

Kentucky feels like an old Big XII K-State matchup where, regardless of their record, you know they’re going to be prepared and should be a tough out.  Their 4-6 , 1-6 vs SEC record might not suggest it, but a 13-12 loss to Georgia, 20-17 win over Ole Miss, 28-18 loss to Tenn suggest they get up for, and bring it against headlining competition, a trait of their historically bottom-feeder football program throughout The Stoops era.  They are 1 loss away from practically being eliminated from bowl eligibility so will come into Austin with something to play for.  At least that’s what I’m telling the players all week if I’m Sark ; ).

These guys scored 6 against SC, 12 against UGA, 13 against Vandy, and 10 against Auburn.

 

So, I'm gonna do something I've never done before and predict a shutout.  

 

Kentucky -- 0

Texas -- 42

If we score 42 we aren't shutting them out.  Our 2s and 3s will be in and will give up garbage points.

Aggy only a 1 point favorite versus Auburn.  

This a tricky game, IMO.

It's on the road. Auburn has a solid D and a RB that can go off. Auburn needs to feed Jarquez Hunter. I'm not surprised by that line. 

This feels like a 20-17 type game in any direction.

I was at that game and I was more confused than the announcers.  Crazy play 

I knew it was a safety but didn't know it was one point but made sense because the play was for only one point.  I had the same basic thing happen on a 2 point conversion in high school and it was a 2 point safety.

So one of these? 

 

I was watching that game in a pub in London and thus didn't have an audio feed or closed captions. Had to go read LFZ to figure out WTF once we got back to my mate's flat because this was still in the dumb phone era.

I'm convinced Kentucky will absolutely come out flat and this game will be over at half. 

 

 

Hey man, it was a little chilly yesterday.

This. I've been offered tickets to the rest of the games by both neighbors. We already have them and aren't using them. UK fans are done with football.
