Tennessee 33 Kentucky 27

[16thBBall Fan]

Final. A tough loss the offense looked the best all season. The defense has not stopped anyone for 7 quarters now. On to Mississippi State.

Won’t win another game. I hope I’m wrong but I don’t see it, especially with three of final four being on road and Alabama last home game. MS and SC are both down but I think they still beat Kentucky.

Another limp to the finish line, get pummeled by a Big 10 team in a bowl kind of year.    Exactly what UK shelled out big money for.

Tough loss that could've been a win.  Lack of discipline has been this teams biggest issue thus far.  Too many dumb penalties.

I thought UK was pretty competitive tonight and I enjoyed the game.

Really fun game to watch

Leary is finally on fire and you call the Wildcat and haven’t been able to run the ball all night, c’mon Cohen, you’re better than that!!!

will finish 7-5 or 6-6, go to a bowl and most people will be happy with that, sad

I figured Kentucky would lose by 20 or 30 so I’m somewhat surprised.

Leary played great, crisp throws and poised in pocket, had several dropped passes, Tenn up tempo offense was the difference and a few more athletes on the field, great atmosphere and Ky fans were awesome once again.

The ability to wrap up on a tackle seems to be a lost art not just in the NCAA but in the NFL.  UK couldn't wrap a present against Tennessee.

This is exactly what people are talking about when they say Stoops’ teams are undisciplined and play dirty. How is this allowed to happen?

If that wasn't completely pathetic, it would be funny.

I just don't get it. With the strides Stoops has made elevating the program, I don't know why they would allow this to happen. It completely tarnishes everything else. 

It's a reputation they have built. I remember seeing a quote from Kirby Smart the week they played Georgia about how they knew how UK played and to expect that kind of thing.

This is bad.  Asking for a fight to start, which if it would have happened, it would have been Tennessee's fault somehow.  I think Mark Stoops has made some really good strides with this program but boy this is a really bad look.  IF this is indeed the reputation and this is one example of many its an issue the AD should address asap.

“Our team had great discipline tonight to not get cheap penalties,” Smart said. “And we told them. We said, ‘Hey, look, Kentucky’s going to have some penalties. They’ll have guys push you, shove you, or do something to you. Just don’t respond to it.’ I thought our guys were really good. You know, it really cost them on a drive. They stopped us, and then they had a kid hit Sed. And that converts a 3rd down that we didn’t convert, and we go down and score that drive.”

The AD isn’t going to address anything, he’s let the Head basketball coach hang around for years longer than he should, how could he say anything to the Head football coach?
