Damn
Watching Florida show the ball down Kentucky’s throat. I can only hope we play better tonight.
I am still predicting good things.
Florida is going to town.
But to be honest, the Cayuts are really helping. They’re playing tight and scared, making mistakes all over the place. These are mistakes they weren’t making the past few weeks. I mean, we’re 12.5 minutes into the game, and UK has, what, 6 or 7 penalties for like 60 yards?
It is fun to watch.....
…..but makes me afraid.
Although, with college football, especially this year, it is so hard to compare week to week and team to team with the transitive stuff. Lots of weird stuff in college football this year.
So...
..I’m officially really looking forward to our game. Watching other games, checking the clock every 5 minutes. I even broke out the black #7 jersey, which is still awesome.
Prediction: UL 21-38 Utah.
Hope: UL 27 – 23 Utah.
Holy crap UK...
What is that feeling I’m feeling?? Could it be that I am feeling a bit empathetic for the Cats? I’m at work and not able to watch either game…but looking at the score and the stats…my god…they are being completely dominated.
As I said...
they’re mostly doing it to themselves. They’re playing scared, like they don’t really think they have a chance or even a right to win.
Case in point:
They just got their first first down of the game, with 8:21 left in the 2nd.
Also… 6 penalties.
and the crowd reacts like they did when UK took the lead last week
after a meaningless touchdown. Hey they outscored themselves from last year against Florida
If you were watching...
…you’d feel nothing but blood lust. It’s awesome. They are getting completely dominated. Just got their first stop and first first down – took them until the 2nd quarter.
Alllllright...almost kick-off...
…sucks going from ESPN HD to whatever this is….not fun. Makes it much harder to identify our players, who I had a somewhat difficult time identifying in the first place.
you know you're not getting the announcer A-team when...
the #2 guy is named Ahkbar
don't like the all white
should’ve gone with black pants
Well this couldn't have started
much better.

I have been very annoyed with these dudes about 10 times.
It would be a much better broadcast to bring back the college announcers from basketball season.
man
that blocked fg was huge, hope we can rebound
ohhh 3rd downs...
we really are awful at stopping someone on 3rd down
that tackling...
…looks like the first half of the uk game.
that last series, yes
we started strong though…damnit

can't believe i'm the one that's positive here
but we can move the ball on this defense.
don’t start freaking out just yet.
Okay...
…soooo….still a lot of game left. That Trent Guy fumble was seriously the flukiest of fluke plays.
Not the fumble itself...
…the guy saving it from going out of bounds. Guy’s confidence has to be shaken, you are right.
i'm sorry
but if the ball is out of bounds in mid-air, you should not be able to save it back in bounds.
this is not the and-1 tour.

i will see you a stupid penalty

That last angle...
…he looked down. I’m just glad they didn’t review it, was really close and the way things have been going….
That's actually a really good time for a timeout.
Two left, 2nd quarter waning, you need to convert this third down.
they did snap in time
Koopthorpe called the TO
by twistedwedge on Sep 26, 2009 8:48 PM EDT up reply actions
I wasn't looking at the screen,
the announcers said we had a problem getting plays in, so I assumed. My bad for listening to them
That's not why the timeout was called.
We had the play ready to snap on time, but we need to make sure we get the first down here. I think Krag took the time to read the defense.
route short of the first down marker out of a timeout?
krags does it to himself sometimes.
What are the chances...

Remember he hurt his knee and sat out in 2006....
…his RS year. I really hope that’s something he can come back from.
what makes this game especially frustrating
is that utah looks almost as bad.
offense? yes
defense? at least they look a little better

we are doing everything...
not to stay in this game. did you see the offensive stat. blocked fg, int, fumble, punt, punt. geez dude its sick. and long fumbled. that should be four turnovers. thank you defense. seriously we are only down 17-0 with those offensive stats. the defense is doing a great job excluding the long pass play after the fumble. krag will fire em up for the 2nd. i think we will get back in this game

I could see him..
….wowing at the combine and being a first-day pick.
Or never being heard from again.
Even if he tears it up at the combine
I fear the combination of his relative anonymity and injury history will prevent any tam from taking a shot on him on the first day.

Play action pass to Tronzo..

6pts
and I guarantee it wasnt one of our eight plays
by twistedwedge on Sep 26, 2009 9:39 PM EDT up reply actions
I would argue..
..it is our most common play so far this year. Burke drops back, nothing is there, Burke scrambles. I’ve seen that run at least 4 times tonight.
that one actually tends to work out pretty well
compared to the actual designs of the 8 plays
Have my expectations been lowered...
…I used to expect to win…now I’m happy that we’re not shutout.
The Kragthorpe era..I will always remeber it fondly..NOT!

Chug is budding up to Schnellenberger so he can transfer down to Florida next year if Krapthorpe is still around.

As awful as that quarter was....

8 plays?
Are you sure?
1) Run up the middle
2) Burke drops back, nothing there, scrambles
3) Screen to RB
4) 3-step drop, quick jump ball to Long
5) Play action rollout, Tronzo underneath, Beaumont one level up
6) Whatever play that results in an open CamGraham in the flat
7) Reverse
8) -????

I was just gonna watch you guys tonight
Until I just actually witnessed Krapthorpe kick a fucking extra point when every pee wee league coach in the nation knows you go for 2 there. WHY IS THIS MAN STILL THE COACH????
Some guy on justin.tv just said...
“But if you miss the 2pt you’re down 2 possessions.”
Good thing we sidestepped that landmine, Einstein.
You know things are bad...
…when we just score the craziest touchdown I’ve ever seen, then Krag goes for 1, and I haven’t even clicked back to watch the play again. Nor do I care.
two things on the utah qb...
his nickname could be t. cain, quite naturally
is it just me, or does he seem completely bored by this game?
Did the announcers call out the coach for that decision?
If so, I missed it….. but I was thinking about the Perfect Brownie, so I might’ve.
that's what I don't get
seriously, with the absurdly stupid mistakes, I don’t see how he could win at the high school level much less any college program. He obviously couldn’t have been this bad…
if we lose this 23-22 or 23-21, or 23-20
fire him on monday.
i am not kidding.
I think Krag's plan here
was to hold them to a field goal so we’d be down 12 and not 13

I created this account right now so I could vent. Fagthorpe is officially the worst coach in the world. Thats right the WORLD. I can’t believe I am so mad at a college football game but I am. How do u not go for 2. He doesn’t give these kids a chance to win at all. JURICH FIX THIS!!!!!! Sorry for the length of the post. U do a good job Mike.
To be honest...
I was part of the “Give Krags a chance” after the close loss last week.
After that not going for the 2, I’m with you all. F this guy.
As far as I’m concerned, his job is wide-smokin-open.

Did Trent Guy get pulled for letting that first punt bounce? I need to know this
one more comment
I really feel like Kragthorpe killed all momentum by settling for the xtra point and defense played uninspired.
Agreed.
We need to get rid of this guy ASAP.
I firmly believe that a better coach with this talent would get 8 wins.
Rumor has it that if he lost UK and Utah then they firing him mid season
I really doubt this, but my source also knew about the Pitino stuff before it broke.

Doug Beaumont is having a sophomore slump

I feel really bad for JB.
The kid deserves better. They all deserve better, and it’s so hard to watch.
BTW, in case you hadn’t noticed, beer makes me refer to everyone by their initials.
So do I
I really like him and this isn’t his fault.

I was a Uof l fan when we were the Homecoming team of choice for elite programs...
I enoyed the uphill struggle to make it to the top 10. I hate the downward spiral of a bad coaching decision. It now seems that the athletic program has come to accept that it’s OK to be mediocre. I don’t have the will to fight TJ over this. I will not be joining you for anymore U of L football games. This season has lost it’s luster for me.
Steve Kragthorpe is a life ruiner
he ruins people’s lives.
Yeah, I’m drunk and quoting Mean Girls…this is where we are.

I wish I was in Japan.
Course, I’m drunk, so I could really go for anything right now.
But Japan sounds tight.
Only Crappy thing is
we are +13 hours ahead of EST, so sometimes I work during the games. I would be able to watch it on TV if it wasn’t for jackasses screwing it up for everyone in my section.

I figured Kadena was likely.
I have a buddy who does security for the F-15 flight simulators down there….he loves it over there.

I just got here in August and it is amazing. I love it here!

How much worse can it get ??
Kragthorpe is not a real football coach, he only plays one on TV
For what it's worth, and that's not much,
I had last night’s game TIVOed and watched following a dinner engagment. Watched it speeded up and was still amazed at how slow Bilal Powell seems to be this year.
Really and truly one of the most dull, uninspired, insipid football games I’ve been subjected to in ages. Utah won, but isn’t very good I don’t think. U of L showed up to play in those insipid jerseys with the circle on the sleeves that makes everybody look sloop-shouldered. And that’s the best thing I can say about their performance.
And Kragthorpe? Don’t get me started…
