Big win despite our efforts to give it away. Defense stepped up there at the end.

[Lighthouse]

We have a lot of work to do, but I really like this team. GO CATS!!!

Big win. Needed that. Also likely shrunk a few egos.

Lot to work on. Offense was all you would want...over 500 yards.
Defense needs a lot of work.
Is Anaele just not able to play? I had thought he was the hope at edge.

[Catsrock]

Said in prediction thread I’d take any win. And I’ll take it.

[Jload]

I need a drink!

[40bill]

And just think....for the bettors out there UK beats the spread two weeks in a row.

[Marooncat79]

Cats should be Undefeated starting in October

That’s the truth. Enough to work on to keep ‘em buddy for awhile but they got the win.

[Los Gatos]

Cats trying to win by not playing defense. Let’s see how it works

pretty risky imo

Stoops stopped running Coen's offense with about five minutes to go in the first half. After Brown, Shannon, and Gran it's not the OC, it's the head coach.

I disagree we had over 250 yards on the ground, hard not Toruń it when you are doing it that well. I think our O Coordinator just ran what was working.

Well, I awoke to find a very pleasant surprise awaiting me. I was happy to see the stadium jam packed and how the crowd was really into the game.

Fantastic crowd and energy

It isn’t often that the second game is the biggest of the regular season, but that may very well prove true of last night’s matchup. More stressful than it needed to be, and I’m officially concerned about the defense, but fortunately we get a couple tune-ups before things get serious against Florida.

And again, as revelatory as Levis has been for our offense, he’s got to start leading his receivers on those short throws. That’s two weeks in a row that those throws have been a little behind his man and resulted in INTs. Most have been quick to shift the blame to the WR — “Gotta help the QB” — but let’s be honest: we’ve been hamstrung at WR for years, so if anything a good QB needs to help the receiver until we bring in guys who can do the opposite.

Finally, I saw a pretty gruesome stat before Jones’ INT: in six quarters, UK’s turnover:takeaway ratio was 5:0. That’ll tank a season in a hurry if we don’t sort it out.

I don't have much of a voice left this AM from screaming...

We have had more intense atmospheres in the Stoops era, but on about three third downs / 4th downs in the 4th quarter, it was as loud as I have ever heard it. Most of my section stood for the entire 4th quarter.

I thought we played sloppy and let a team we were 14 pts better than, hang around. Still, I'll take ANY SEC W.

I was as mad as Stoops about the slow-developing deep shot on second down that got the QB sacked up seven at the seven-minute mark, but then to turn around and drop a 34-yard bomb on third down was pretty epic.
