Joker is a joke....Horrible!!!!:madman::madman:

Did you watch the game?

 

Kentucky's D gave them a shot to win at the end. UK's inability to get the ball into the endzone at crunch time cost them the game.

You think Fidler would have made those plays? He didn't do it any other time this year. Newton is the correct choice, but he wasn't playing well tonight (against a pretty good defensive team/coordinator), and the staff should be smart enough to see that.

 

Locke rushed the ball 4 times in the 2nd half and OT.

 

Honest to God, I trust Will more throwing than I trust Morgan at this point. And Fidler was not given nearly the chance Morgan was given.

UT did not make the same mistake UK did..............they put the ball in the hands of their best player and he did what playmakers do.

I maintain if your defense is on the field constantly, they're probably not the problem. They held UT to 10 points in the second half despite being on the field for about 22 minutes of it. They were responsible for one of UK's three TDs. They made the play to set up the game tying field goal. I don't see how the defense can be blamed, or at least receive the lion's share of it.

Tough loss for the Cats. It almost makes me sick. I think Joker is a fine person and really do like him, but I sure hope Barnhart realizes he is not SEC head coach material. Go out and pay for a top notch coach and recruiter when Papaw retires.

Exactly!!!!!!

I agree. UT ran it down their throat most of the night.

The best defender in the game tonight was Joker. He was the only person in the stadium who could stop Cobb and he did. I will refer to Joker Phillips as Rocky Top Phillips from now on.

Defense actually made some great plays...INT for a TD...Stop 4th and 1 on the goal line...But The Defense did mess up maybe the biggest play of the game by giving up a first down on a 3rd and 18 play...That is flat out terrible...

UK offense's longest drive of the day was 54 yards. Their longest of the second half? The 31 yards they drove on their final possession in regulation. After the first two drives of the second half, UK didn't allow UT to gain more than 30 yards on a single drive.

The UT receiver coughed the ball up on a routine hit... UK's defense was soft most of the night and UT made them pay for it. Hardesty did what he wanted.

Terrible decisions and play-calling by the UK coaching staff. There's really nothing more to say about it.

Look at the bright spot, UK got outgained 446 to 261 and had a chance to win the game. UK got badly outgained the last two weeks, and nearly won both games. That's hard to do.
