July 23, 201412 yr I should be working. Instead I'm watching the 2004 UofL/UK game. I could either research the point at which improperly held bailments become conversion... or I could watch Stefan LeFors bomb long passes to Joshua Tinch. This is not going to be a terribly productive morning. I'm jonesing for college football pretty bad right now...
July 23, 201412 yr Author And in the spirit of preparing for the Sept. 1 opener, I watched a good bit of this one last night: I still remember tailgating before that game and I KNEW the Cardinals were going to run them out of the stadium.
July 30, 201412 yr I watched the UK v. UofL 2006 game earlier this morning. What a beat-down that was!
July 30, 201412 yr Author I watched the UK v. UofL 2006 game earlier this morning. What a beat-down that was! The 2005 epic that Louisville won 31-24 recently went up as well. That username is awesome... no doubt about where you stand. :lol2: Welcome to BluegrassPreps.

July 30, 201412 yr Stevie Got Loose is still probably my single most favorite/exciting play . I still get jacked when I watch that one. UL has certainly had UK's number though. Need to get that going in a new way. I, too, am ready for some college ball.
July 30, 201412 yr Stevie Got Loose is still probably my single most favorite/exciting play . I still get jacked when I watch that one. I wasn't necessarily mad that UL lost that game, I was just mad that they lost it in the fashion they did. The end of that game was brutal.
July 30, 201412 yr I wasn't necessarily mad that UL lost that game, I was just mad that they lost it in the fashion they did. The end of that game was brutal. I bet it was for all UL fans.
July 30, 201412 yr Author This one is awesome too: 22 seconds into the game Jeff Brohm completes one to Ralph Dawkins who goes 80 yards for the score... and then David Akers knocks through the extra point. It also features one of my favorite Cardinals from when I was a kid: offensive lineman Roman Oben, who would go on to a 12-year NFL career. He was a two-sport athlete who also lettered three years in track and field, finishing (I believe) second in the shotput at the Metro Conference Championships his senior year. Earned his degree in Economics from UofL and took graduate classes during summers while in the NFL and eventually got his masters degree. Served as a team rep to the NFLPA for seven seasons. Cool dude. Now a broadcaster with the Giants. Oh, and the Cardinals PUMMELED Texas 41-10. Schnellenberger was the man. Edited July 30, 201412 yr by Getslow
July 30, 201412 yr Author I bet it was for all UL fans. I'm glad no one took a picture of me in those first few seconds after that play. I can't imagine what my face must have looked like.
July 30, 201412 yr Some of those beat downs by UofL really do bring back those days when everyone, UK fans or not, were trashing Mitch Barnhart for not firing Rich Brooks. I do have to give Barnhart credit for having the foresight to give Brooks more time to recover and build a decent program. Granted, Mitch lost much of that credibility when he offered Joker the coach in waiting position, LOL. Oh well, hopefully Stoops can start building again. I'm not one of the fans who expect SEC titles, I just want a day to come where teams like Tenn, So Carolina and Georgia cannot just assume W's automatically when playing Kentucky and if they do beat KY, it is by a TD or so, not numerous TD's. Brooks was knocking on that door but not quite there.

Brooks was knocking on that door but not quite there. I think Vanderbilt over the past couple seasons was the perfect example of what's possible in the SEC East, even for a team that's not a traditional powerhouse, with the right guy at the helm. Back-to-back 9-4 seasons in Nashville is unheard-of. Stoops could be that guy. I was really impressed with him last year; the defense he put in place against UofL's offense last year was as close to perfect as could be designed.
July 30, 201412 yr This one is awesome too: 22 seconds into the game Jeff Brohm completes one to Ralph Dawkins who goes 80 yards for the score... . Related to the Dawkins that played at T?
July 30, 201412 yr I was really impressed with him last year; the defense he put in place against UofL's offense last year was as close to perfect as could be designed. Not perfect enough to win the game though LOL. I don't remember the details but I think most of the defensive breakdowns last season dealt more with having to play superior, much faster athletes more so than break downs in the defensive system.
