September 16, 200719 yr RRR is already wanting to fire Kragthorpe. :laugh: I guess the shine is off of Jurich then for the hire?
September 16, 200719 yr RRR is already wanting to fire Kragthorpe. :laugh: I guess the shine is off of Jurich then for the hire? Jurich was justified in the hire, Kragthorpe built a team. Problem is he isn't showing the ability to coach a top 25 team.
September 16, 200719 yr Point? Point being any talk about what would've happened week 1 is moot... Any talk about week 3 being the right move is validated…
September 16, 200719 yr Point being any talk about what would've happened week 1 is moot... Any talk about week 3 being the right move is validated… Minus the added national exposure UK would have gained by winning with the game on ESPN Varsity and zero other games shadowing the result. How many more potential recruits would have been tuned in? How much more revenue would it have created? Beating a UL team after the D had already been exposed twice hurts the perception as well. The win alone doesn't not change my views on the decision. In fact it makes them stronger...

September 16, 200719 yr Exactly. As a UofL fan, I think I'm glad now that the game was played in week 3. :lol: You guys are missing the main point which is the FACT that UK won in Week 3. There is no way to measure if it actually had an impact on the game but if in fact it did, then UK may have lost in Week 1. I'll take the W and I'm sure not one UK player or fan said "Gee I wish this would have happened in Week 1".

The only thing that’s fact is the week 3 result is in the books and it went UK's way... The "WIN" is all UK was after everything else will work itself out...

I'm just saying that I think UK would have won easier and in better fashion in week 1 and it would have boded well for them on the national stage. I'm not saying that it took anything away from UK's win, I'm saying that I think it could have been bigger.
September 16, 200719 yr I actually think the defense played well enough to win last night...did they play great? No...but they were playing an exceptional offense, they had two blown coverages, and kudos to Woodson for recognizing it at the right times....I hate that Louisville fans are so sudden to want to hang someone out. So giving up 40 and almost 500 yards is good defense?

September 16, 200719 yr So giving up 40 and almost 500 yards is good defense? Where did he say they played good? There is a difference between good and good enough to win.

UK has plenty of opportunities on the national stage starting next week... exposure won't be a problem for the cats...
September 16, 200719 yr OK then good enough to win, if thats what it's going to take for UL to win is score more than 40 every game it's going to be a long season.
September 16, 200719 yr UK has plenty of opportunities on the national stage starting next week... exposure won't be a problem for the cats... That isn't the point either. Breaking a 4 game losing streak to your in state rivals who are ranked in the top 10 and playing an unranked Arkansas are hardly the same thing.
September 16, 200719 yr OK then good enough to win, if thats what it's going to take for UL to win is score more than 40 every game it's going to be a long season. Well we won't be seeing many more offenses as good as UK's so I think they'll be alright.
