September 2, 201115 yr Western should have led at least 10-7 going into the 4th. UK has athletes, but IMHO Joker is going to live up to his moniker.
September 2, 201115 yr UK converted on a couple of big plays and WKU didn't. Strange at it may sound, WKU may feel better about the loss than UK does about the win!
September 2, 201115 yr I didn't get to watch all of the game. I am however glad UK won 14-3 instead of 35-24. Most improvement comes between games 1-2. Hopefully the switch will be turned on with this UK team. I don't see any legitimate offensive playmakers and that is very scary.
September 2, 201115 yr I was at UK during a bunch of 2 win seasons, but that may have been the worst game I've ever seen. Joker better pull it together quick.
September 2, 201115 yr The worst thing that happened in my opinion was the players mouthing back at Joker after being reprimanded....saw this from several players....Joker better get a hold on this team real quick!!
September 2, 201115 yr Despite replacing Locke and Cobb, based on what I'd seen in the past, Morgan Newton was my biggest concern heading into this season. I'm not concerned any longer. My worst fears have been realized. I'll try not to overreact to one game, but it is hard. To go to the wire with a team that has won 4 games in the last 3 seasons (4-32 in that span) is pretty discouraging, even for a fan that had lower expectations for this season to begin with. Newton was 7 of 18 with 3 picks. UK averaged 2.8 yards per carry and ended with less than 200 yards of total offense. WKU won this game everywhere but the scoreboard...more first downs, more total yards, 8 minute advantage in TOP. The Hilltopper QB missed two easy TD passes that would have likely doomed UK had he hit on them. Exclude Newton's 58 yards run late in the game and UK had 35 yards on 32 carries. Ouch. I really don't know what else to say. Maybe they had a bad game? Even so, I expected a bad game to look significantly better than that.
September 2, 201115 yr I was at UK during a bunch of 2 win seasons, but that may have been the worst game I've ever seen. Joker better pull it together quick. Based on last night, I'd say you'll be lucky to see another 2 win season in 2011.
September 2, 201115 yr maybe Joker shouldnt have run Mossokoski off now!!!!! Newton is a flop and has been since the 1st game he played, way to many ranking stars for him out of HS.

Yeah......what was E.J. Fields suspended for? The paper said "violation of team rules."
