UK-Murray State Game Prediction Thread

[Matt Dillon]

I expect a combination of emotional letdown and overconfidence. Still, the Cats should dominate MS. My prediction is UK 45 Murray State 10.

[KevinHall]

While there may be letdown UK should roll in this game. I read that the last 8 or 9 games Murray has played an FBS team they haven't given up less than 48 points in any of those games. They are 0-2 so far this season and haven't been much of a match in either game. UK will win easily in this one and then looks towards the bulk of the SEC Schedule

UK 56
Murray 13
The game is at noon on Saturday and will be televised by the SEC Network alternate channel.

UK 31, Murray State 13 in a real flat emotional let down ugly game

[Matt Dillon]

I hope we build up a nice lead, in the first half, and coach Stoops uses a lot of second and third stringers in the second half.

Agree with you there.

Hope to get to see SMOKE in the backfield and some more of Square and Oats at Line backer. Plus the big freshman nose guard and such. KENTUCKY 56 Murray 6

I think this is pretty accurate. I'm glad this game is between the Florida and Mississippi State games.

Just for differentiation, I'm gonna say Cats 38, Racers 17 with most of the differentiation coming in the 2nd half.

[Brasslock]

Stoops isn't inclined to run up scores and that's alright by me. I think this is a really important game to develop defensive and offensive reads on both sides of the ball (experience), and take another developmental step in our passing game. It's not wise to look too far past any team. I recall us being 4 touchdown underdogs against a "loaded" Louisville team. I would be surprised if we come out with the same emotional "high" we did against Florida. I do expect a motivated team that executes. I guess we win by 4 touchdowns. Just win!

[Jload]

UK 38 ——MSU 3

[Lighthouse]

I also think we will have 3 Backs with over 100 yards rushing.

I also think we will have 3 Backs with over 100 yards rushing.

Benny will have to get his early
Likely won't play much (or at all ) in second half
Not worth risking injury to pad stats

I expect Gunnar to get some playing time too, Hopefully Clark also gets some snaps

[kr24]

Murray State gave up 49pts against Southern Illinois. So with that said, I say:

UK-56
MSU- 13
