With the announced transfer of QB Matt Sims, it is now official. You will continue to suck. Don’t backtalk me. I don’t care about the other five quarterbacks on your roster. That NC State transfer? So garbage he couldn’t start for a crappy ACC team. The others? A JC transfer, a Trinity walk-on and that [...]

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8Gs2EqcIRw&hl=en&fs=1] 27-2. Just let that sink in for a minute, people. 27-2. Doesn’t it just sound swell? It’s as if Kentucky gave Louisville the safety out of sympathy. “Well, we at least want to make it look like you earned a score, so let’s call a play action pass when we’re inside our own 5. [...]

Why is Louisville still the favorite?

Posted: 30th August 2008 by Kenny Colston in Kentucky Football, Louisville, UK football

It’s a question I ask myself every morning. The only thing I can think of is home field advantage. But when Syracuse, who was whooped by Northwestern earlier today, upsets a team at home is there really an advantage? I’m not a betting man and the NCAA will castrate anyone who promotes college football betting. [...]

I see the game going like this. Defense will set the tone for the day, and I expect a low scoring affair. I think that both defenses will come out with guns blazing, but eventually, Louisville’s lack of depth in the trenches will come back to bite them. It has to, because it will be [...]

It’s about that time. I’m not content to wait any longer. I must do this. I must make my prediction for the annual Governor’s Cup game be known right now. So here they are, numbered, but not in any specific order. Just treat it as a catch-all. 1. UK’s running backs will have their day [...]

Louisville’s offense is significantly better than its defense. Hunter Cantwell has backed up Brian Brohm for three years, and it is his time to shine. I’m not as high on him as some of the Louisville fans who say he’s even better than Brohm and use some weird Mel Kiper formula to make that deduction, [...]

Kentucky will not be as good on offense as they were in 2007. This is a given. Andre Woodson, Rafael Little, Keenan Burton, Steve Johnson and Jacob Tamme are all trying to cut their teeth in the NFL. Mike Hartline emerged as the starting quarterback after Curtis Pulley was dismissed from the team, though I [...]

Seeing Red

Posted: 28th August 2008 by Kenny Colston in Kentucky Football, Louisville, Micah Johnson, UK football

So Louisville wants to “Red-Out” the UK game. Cool concept. Stolen a long time ago, but everyone steals it, even UK. Oh and it’s also about time Louisville actually did a “color-out” with their actual primary color. Football stole a few of Maryland’s black outs. Too bad neither the Terps nor Cards do a blackout [...]

The Most Important Game Series

Posted: 27th August 2008 by Kenny Colston in Louisville, Rich Brooks, UK football

In view of the changing tide of UK football, WC has pegged this season as a very important year in terms of taking another step. National media calls the Cats “down and out” if only due to losing a few star players. The future is looking bright with many good young guys set to climb [...]

Now I know what you’re thinking – Why do this game? Louisville beat us in 2007. It wasn’t even close. They shot 46 free throws. It was the worst game of Patrick Patterson’s young career. All of this is true, but of all the weeks of the year, this is the one where basketball is [...]
