I’m in a bit of a gloom and doom mood because my beloved Chicago White Sox have a one game playoff tonight to determine the AL Central winner, and I think they’ll get crushed. So I don’t feel like writing a sunshine and lollipops piece of fluff about UK football. Instead, I want to focus [...]

South Carolina televised? Boooooo

That’s right, I’m booing a televised game. Why? Simple. It’s going to be on Raycom. Worst announcing ever. Bad start time too. A 12:30 p.m. game on the second weekend of Keeneland is not cool. Not at all. Big Blue Madness is the Friday night before the game. Then, people are suppose to go to Keeneland, [...]

ALABAMA IS SCARY, BUT…

I want to preface this by saying that I am in awe of what Alabama did this past weekend against #3 Georgia. I am not surprised that they won, as I thought that one could go either way. But I am surprised that they scored the game’s first 31 points. I’ve never seen a good [...]

Oh-em-gee! This weekend is going to be a barnburner folks. Just make sure it’s not your barn that’s burning! Enough with the jokes. This weekend is serious. What’s the game plan? The defense is good, but so is Bama’s offense? Can the run game work? Can Hartline lead us to victory? Let’s see what Al [...]

First off, what a great crowd.  Western had a great turnout considering they are not one of the major colleges in the state.  I applaud the WKU fans for their showing and for not being obnoxious like so many other small schools that have come through Commonwealth.  The only thing I have to gripe about [...]

Now that is more like it. Maybe Kentucky just plays better when the live TV cameras are rolling. I thought this was by far the best offensive performance of the year, and the defense wasn’t too shabby either. The most satisfying thing about this win was the improved play of the running game. I saw [...]

This is not good. No, no, no, no. Stalking, terroristic threatening and more, according to the Herald-Leader, is not something you do, Ashton Cobb. The promising junior strong safety has really messed up, if what everyone is reporting is true. Using “why so serious,” a reference to the Joker in the Dark Knight for those [...]

That’s right, we talkin’ bout practice when it sells out in 40 minutes. If you were looking for Big Blue Madness tickets, pray your buddy got some. They sold out in 40 minutes today, through direct sales at the Memorial Coliseum ticket office and online at ukathletics.com and ticketmaster.com. I guess some people really like [...]

WEEKEND QUICK HITTERS

* I am torn about this Alabama/Georgia game. On one hand, I like Georgia and I want the SEC to be represented in the BCS title game, and Georgia is one of three teams than can get there. On the other hand, if Georgia wins like I think they will (black jerseys = magic), how [...]

It’s another week of college football and like every week, there are some intriguing matchups in the SEC.  The one I am looking most forward to, besides the UK-WKU game of course, is the Alabama at Georgia game.  The lineup this week is once again top notch and will provide plenty of entertainment for fans.
