I think I'll stay up until after midnight and beat him to 93. Not gonna happen.

93 days until kickoff.

That's in honor of the 1993 Peach Bowl team that beat LSU and a ranked Ole Miss team, and won road games at South Carolina and Mississippi State, along with losing to Florida on an end of game TD. They also lost at Georgia by less than a TD. It was the second year in a row that UK beat LSU.

Is the time based on the Eastern time zone?

Apparently not.

I'm fine, LG, thanks for asking. I was on here early (the time you see for my posts is the time I actually make them as I'm in the Eastern Time Zone) but had some things to do. This is my first opportunity to get back since about 8:00 (EST) this morning.

I saw Coach Stoops being quoted as saying the team will be "significantly better" this year. I've heard him talk about getting better, and cautiously saying all of this is a process. I'm sure he'll probably add something like "we aren't where we want to be," but this is the first time I've heard this kind of optimism and I'm encouraged.

What do say we spice this up a little bit. Let's see if we can find a player with that number each day. I have no idea who this is?

[Matt Dillon]

Current players only, or anyone that has ever played for UK?

Doesn't matter. They do this every year on Redszone for a countdown to baseball season. I thought it would be good for this thread since its been going a while and we are now into numbers of actual players, past and present.

Love it.

That's Christian Coleman tackling Ole Miss' Randall Mackey. I think that's Mister Cobble behind him. Freshman QB Maxwell Smith, in his first career start, had a great game (especially in the second half) and led UK to a 4th quarter comeback and win in that game. CoShik Williams broke 100 yards in that game.
