Riverside 157

Im sure the Manual Stadium ground crew will lay new sod this am and have helicopters flying over to air out the field......

Congrats Tigers on the nice win...

If I was not going to the X - Male game and had a car load for a road trip.... This would be a great game..... I would think WC might be the favorite, althought playing at Marshall C0. is no small feat... Good luck to both teams...

I hear you Bama Larrry.... I say Jody is going to say H by score of 34 - 24.... Im hoping for a good game. Not absolutly convinced the Tigers are where we need to be to truly compete in this game..... It will take an effort like St. X has not shown thus far this year to end up with the W...... Stay warm and stay dry.... All in fun.... the real marbles are 11/10....

Im serious guys, If you are a avid UK supporter of Rich Brooks, Why should UK KEEP him??? Give me his positive attributes and contributions to the program..... I think it is so easy to jump on the Negative band wagon (myself included) and stir up all kinds of stuff.... Lets look at it from the Positive side..... What are the positives from Coach Brooks? It can be anything that is tangible to UK Football.

^ Thanks,... I sit corrected... I had my regions mixed up.... Not the first or last time that can happen...

^ Ive heard 10K from a couple of different places yet I think the weather will really effect the numbers. Im looking for 8 - 8.5 K at best....

I know the field at Manual Stadium has undergone several renovations over the last 10 years and it is in as good a shape as I can remember (30 years..), however, I think we are in for a mud fest tomorrow night. I can only imagine that the soccer games have loosened it up abit... I see very wet and slick conditions which will worsen throughout the game. Good footing will be non existent...... It should be a classic, a truly great game between two historic rivals at the historic stadium.... nuff said... GO TIGERS

Why should UK keep Coach Brooks???? Identify the qualities he brings to the table to move the UK football program forward, this year, next year and 5 years down the road.......??????????????????????????????????????????? I know he is taking a lot of heat, justifable so.... but, all negative aside, getting true answers to the above question will help Mitch see the light of what has to happen.....

Its Thursday afternoon and it rained most of the day yesterday, most of today, forecasted to stop mid Friday morning...... What do you think the field conditions will be and how will this influence the game plan from both sides of the specturm...? Keep in mind that the 7th region scoccer championship is scheduled for 7:00 pm tonight at Manual Stadium...... ;)

To follow along with a lot of Big Blue Posters and the Big Blue Nation..... Give him a contract extention.... everything is great.... Hey we have won 3 games.... We were supposed to lose at LSU... Need a couple more recruiting classes to beef up the D...... Lack of scollys has been a detriment to the program..... We will be "improved".... "we will win 6 games minimum"..... We still get 40 + K for home games in attendance.... We were not ready to play but we will be Sat 10/21.... We have to learn how to crawl befor we learn how to walk.... We don't have goals to run, walking is good enough...... We are imnproving..... everything is just fine ..... and we support our coach 110%..... He is our man....... If there was ever a no brainer in a coaching decision, this has to be it..... I just cant see what Mitch sees........ What has changed over the last year..... In all reality .........Nothing......... Same ole, same ole... When I think about a plot of the program it is definitely DOWNHILL AND NEGATIVE SLOPE...........

Check out the scores from 1986..... St. X lost 40 - 0 to Male....Only to rebound and win the State Championship later that same season......

I hear that this game is going to be such a sleeper that T will be giving out complementry sleeping bags to the first 3,000 paid admissions...... Rocks Win with no struggle...............

^ supporting brooks and providing financial support to the UK program does not sound like a wise investment or much fun..... I applaud your reasoning and support for UK.... Just don't see how this can be fun for the average fan??? After all, what is there to get excited about???? Ok, the band sounds nice, one can watch people (45,000 or so), tailgate in the parking lot befor the game and after the first half.... Keeneland.....UK has a lot of things to offer from a entertainment perspective, its just a shame that the football program is NOT one of them.....

All the Big Blue Nation and Die Hards should show your support by buying your season tickets for next year with the stipulation that if "Rich Stays"... If he is let go, voice your concerns to Mich, if he is still around..... WAKE UP PEOPLE...... What part of the equation are you missing????? The UK program is continuing to REGRESS and is not moving forward in any quantifiable category. If you accept this, REMAIN HAPPY...........

What explaination, bunch of excuses etc. can justify this ranking.....? Everything has already been said and printed....... and UK and its fans still support it.......UNBELIEVEABLE......................

Of those that are part of the Big Blue Nation, are you still convinced that this UK football program is headed in the right direction....... I just can not see any progress in this.... On to the remaining schedule...I see 4 very "winnable" games: Miss St., GA, Vandy, and LA-Monroe.... Lets just count TN as a big L (coaching staff already has...... Just like they thought So. Carolina was going to be a L....) If UK cant win three of the four games ID'd above, then UK President should interveine and fire Rich and Mich..... This is so bad, its not worth wasting my electons on (in typing the same ole case....) I just find it incredible that their are actually fans that say Brooks is doing a good job and that he needs more time........... If UK football had anykind of a national presence, that would be the best joke on SNL...... Its bad....Its real....Its over..... It is a Disaster: Make no mistake about it.....

Good W for Manual.......

St. X is not playing as well as they should be at this time of year. The defense is not tackling as they should. The offense is not playing with a lot of consistency or momentum.... special teams continue to be an issue as well..... having said all of this, I know the Tigers are 7 - 1 but just dont have the focus to win the big game(s) .... Small things make a big difference. I look for a Male W on Friday 10/20..... Would not be surprised if it is approaching three touchdowns........... Yes, you read that correctly..... Lots of work to do on the Tigers side of the ball.....Go Tigers..!!!!! :eek: :argue: :scared: :confused: :confused: :confused:

Final: St. X 49 - Iroquois 0

At the end of three: St. X 42 - Iroquois 0 ..... Iroquois threatning inside the 5.....

Half Time: X 30 - Iroquois 0

With less than a minute remaining in first half: St. X 30 Iroquois 0...

Is this game on the radio, Trinity Radio network????

I would imagine that the only "upset" will be the Ballard AD given that the Trinity turnout may be on the small side given the cool weather..... Thats my only "Rolaids Upset Pick"......
