The Cats take on the Tigers this Saturday night. The Cats are again in bad need of a win.

Mizzu coming off a horrific lose to Vandy, who’s a notch better than Arkansas. Cats pull it off.

Mizzou 31

Cats 21

Kentucky 31-27.

What are the chances Smith starts this game?

For Cats to beat anybody other than UT Martin and Vandy Smith will need to play.

Sounds like it was a 50/50 split today. Bowden wants the stage but you are 100% correct, rainbow throws to Wagner ain’t gonna cut it against real teams.

I think Smith starts Saturday.

Agreed, Bowden already sounds upset so I guess he can see the writing on the wall.

Got to get back to running a regular offense. I think this game is the one they were pointing to, to get Smith back in the lineup.

Stoops is turning over a new leaf, or Peters isn’t as good as advertised.

 

“Xavier didn’t make the trip with us this past week. I left him at home,” Stoops said at Monday’s press conference. “It’s our job to teach Xavier what our expectations are and how to handle your business here. He has a hard time getting to things on time and doing things we ask him to do. Until he gets that straightened out, he won’t play

In all honesty UK as a triple option team doesn’t bother me, and Bowden would be a great guy for that, BUT the rest of the supporting cast isn’t there to run that type of offense. Most notably a few guys up front that help keep the offense behind the sticks or out of the end zone.

 

A good mixture this week would be great. Take some punishment off of Bowden and get Smith back in to rhythm slowly.

 

I have my doubts though Stoops and Gran have the coaching philosophy of overreaction.

Mizzou hasn't won a road game and are giving an okay UK team 10 points? That seems like a lot.

 

UK is much better at home, and great ATS at home, and I'm riding that here. Mizzou may win the game, but I love UK getting 10.

Going to be a cold, wet, windy game according to the forecast. It will be my first game at Kroger Field. Looking forward to it.

The weather tonight is a great night for a running offense. I think Missouri will struggle to put any points on the board. I like UK 14 7.

21-17 Cats.
