UK goes to 3-1, after a tough loss, that the offense did not show up last game.

 

UK 27

Mizzouri 17

....

 

UK by 2-3 points. The comments that Mizzou stinks, or this is two bad teams, are over-the-top. These are top 50 teams, not great, but not bad.

 

UK's kicker hits a game-winner in the last 5 minutes.

...

 

I will say that I think Mizzou needs this win for a bowl game, and they know that, so I think you'll see their best on Saturday night. They have a fairly rough schedule the rest of the way, so they really need a win in Commonwealth.

Let's get one thing straight, Florida isn't awful. They have been poorly coached for the past three seasons but they are very talented. Both corners were top 10 in their class, not at their position but overall. Two years ago they had 11 recruits in the Rivals 250, UK would celebrate having 1. Their quarterback was the #2 QB in his class that included Drew Barker, the same Drew Barker that was hailed the savior of UK football and the biggest recruit since Couch. Furthermore, UK has one of the youngest offenses in America. It's also an offense that scored 64 points in their first game and a half so it's not the same old UK. Sorry to let the facts get in the way of a good bashing but it is what it is.

 

It's striking how short sighted fans can become.

Agreed on UF. Offense still struggles but their D is legit when their full complement of DBs are available like Saturday.

And people don't realize they didn't have half of those guys against ECU.

 

Don't get me wrong I was disappointed in the loss because it was a winnable game but people are acting like UK lost to EKU. It's just plain silly

 

Missouri is much closer to UK's talent level than Florida.

Just like SC game was a measuring stick for this program, this Mizzou game is as well. Have to be able to beat SC and Mizzou on a consistent basis for UK to no longer be the bottom of the East.

I agree and there is no way coming off a loss Stoops won't have this team ready. Mizzu is mediocre and this will be a "trap" game for them. UK will win by 14.

My only worry is Mizzou always looks bad 3 and a half quarters of a game, then becomes clutch in the 4th. UK has to be up 14 in the 4th or they probably lose.

Missouri has won 11 straight road games.

Missouri has won 11 straight road games.

 

I heard that on KSR the other day. That's pretty impressive.

Aside from Florida State and ohio state, Missouri has been the luckiest team in college football for the past two seasons or so, winning games that they absolutely don't deserve to. It looks like that trend is continuing so far this year. Until Kentucky can put together 4 quarters of play, I think Missouri wins.

UK: 16

Mizz: 12

I'm curious to how Ohio State and FSU have been the luckiest teams the last 2 years? If being the best equates to luckiest, then you could be right.

I guess losing your top 2 QB's is considered lucky these days.
