    Key in this game is our oline. We have to somehow control the UK front 7, especially front 4. Austin Barber's staying healthy and playing effectively are imperative.

    Dirty, IMO. Too frequent for "coincidence." Also didn't one of their players go after AR's knee when he was already out of bounds?

    Yes, I agree. I showed undeserved kindness to Stoops.
    I think the two years as offensive coordinator at FSU under slimy Jimbo rubbed off on Stoops. I don’t recall his brother Bob being that way at all. I remember him as passionate but principled.

    Pessimism can easily trump logic. These are trying times

    Very true. Nobody wants to look for anything positive right now. Coach’s job has become almost impossible

    Barber is questionable for the game.

    I think the team will play with more effort with DJ being the starting QB. They will rally around him. Gators win...

    Lets hope the OL protects. Move DJ out of the pocket if our OL cannot deal with pressure.

    well Jake Slaughter better have the game of his life because Deon Walker can cause PROBLEMS at defensive tackle.

    Do you really think Napier is going to deviate from his offensive plan? His MO is to go even more conservative with the back-up in.

    Prolly been mentioned, but this is THE must-win game of the season to this point. Win and they might still make a bowl game/salvage a .500 season. Lose and the noise becomes amplified x1000. Simply can't afford a loss here.

    He's athletic enough to line up anywhere on the DL, so he could be picking on any of them.

    I’m sorry. This is the most apathetic I’ve ever been as a Gator fan in 35 years. I understand that our defense showed up for the first time in 3 years. I also understand that Lagway starting is a good thing for the future of the team. I’ll root for us tomorrow and I do think we will win, but it wouldn’t surprise me if somehow we manage to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.

    I think the strategy is roll DJ out early and hit some shots. In the 2nd half Kentucky will adjust and then pound them with a conservative run game.

    We have a St coach this year. How Houston. Former nfl guy with patriots. We have covered much better and have returned much better. Everything has been significantly better.
