September 2, 201115 yr I said this a few months ago that I was worried about this years UK team. I said this year could very easily be a 4 win season, and ending our bowl appearance streak. Obviously this is just the first quarter of the first game, they very well can end up blowing WKU out. I hope they end up doing great and prove me wrong, I just have a lot questions about this years team, especially the offense.
September 2, 201115 yr I see Newton has not improved. I'm sure I'll see all the "It's the first game", "Potential to...", blah, blah, blah comments. I just don't think that he is the guy. He may be the guy by default, but he is not going to lead UK to much at all.
September 2, 201115 yr This team is really bad. Really really bad. They may not win 2 games. If the 1st quarter against Western is a indication.
September 2, 201115 yr Looks like that box office bath I was talking about came true. Hope this is the end of stupid decisions such as two Kentucky teams meeting in another state by choice.

I didn't think this year would be a good year at all before this game. However it is way to early to be basing how the team will do just on how it played in the 1st quarter of the first game. Newton could have improved, and this team could be better and just had a horrible 1st quarter. Teams do have that happen sometimes, we will see how the respond the rest of the game now.

I think it would have been a lot more successful had it been on a Saturday. I think they traded attendance for national exposure. Of course, even though the stadium is less than half full, it still will pull up WKU's attendance.

Let me be up front in saying that I have never liked Newton. I have made comments to that effect before, and was usually shouted down about how we were giving up on him early. I look at his performance in all his opportunities, and I just don't see it. He has an entire year to change that, and should he, I will gladly be wrong. There is just something off about him.
