November 14, 200619 yr Not too bad. Imagine where they could be with wins the next two weeks.

November 14, 200619 yr Someone asked on another thread where UK would go bowling. Several teams ranked close to the Cats would make for an entertaining and well attended game - Penn State, Nebraska, Va Tech come to mind. If UC qualified, a UC-UK matchup would be interesting.
November 14, 200619 yr UK football has a pretty tough schedule mixed in with a few cupcakes and SEC West bottom feeders.
November 14, 200619 yr UK football has a pretty tough schedule mixed in with a few cupcakes and SEC West bottom feeders. SOS of 14.
November 15, 200619 yr This helps both UK and UL to see them both getting points. It helps both schools SOS and when is the last time they helped each other? Good to see!!! I am confused on Ohio State, .. I would assume that when, .... er I mean IF they beat Michigan that they should jump up considerably. If I am not missing anyone, UK has 6 of the top 36 teams in this ranking on their schedule (UL, LSU, UT, UGA, USC, & UF). That really helps their SOS.
November 15, 200619 yr Awesome..this really helps Louisville...this week should help as well. I think the computers do a better job of looking at strength of schedule than the voters do. Louisville's problem is not with the computers--its with the humans that vote in the polls. But, given the fact that a strong UK finish might help the Cards, ON, ON, U of K! da da da da da da da dum!
November 15, 200619 yr The Massey ratings, towards the end of the year, IMHO are the most accurate. Not perfect by any means, but more accurate.
November 15, 200619 yr If I had posted before the season that Kentucky would at any point be ranked ahead of Nebraska, BYU, Georgia, Texas A&M, Kansas ST. & Washington, in any poll or computer ranking what would the reaction have been? Granted, this is just one ranking system, and we have to just take it for what it is. No need for us (UK fans) to go around thumping our chests or making challenges, but I think we can celebrate this in a a small way. This is another indicator that UK is taking baby steps in the right direction. (OK, maybe big boy steps)
