Eric Crawford sadz - really sad

I also truly believe Crawford is a kitty but not solely on what I observe in his writing. I base it mostly on his background and where he grew up in Shelby County. I’ve never lived in Shelby County but I’ve spent plenty of time out there attending high school sporting events.

I’d say the kitty to Card ratio is at least 80:20 and it could be much higher. When Eric grew up out there years ago I bet the ratio was more like 90:10 or higher. The influx of Jefferson County residents moving to Shelby County has brought more Card fans to that area but it is still heavily populated with kitty fans.

Anyway, I just base my opinion of his allegiance solely on that alone. The odds are with me being correct.
 
One of the announcers last night said that Kentucky didn’t have to rebuild after losing the talent from last year, he said that they just retooled. Lol
 
It’s gonna be a long season in Lexington if they are stuck depending on Bowden to quarterback. The guy is a good athlete but an SEC quarterback he ain’t.

I haven’t asked for anything from Santa yet. If I get my wish Coach Brown and our defense will be facing a banged up WR that’s played quarterback in the SEC for over half a season come the Saturday after Thanksgiving.
 
The Louisville media has always had a soft spot for the "bad news bears"

They so want UofL's sustained success, translated to the SECs practice dummy.

A loss to Ar-Kansas, and the Metro Media will transition to big blew basketball.

"Despite some major losses to the NFL Draft, this was a team that coach Mark Stoops expected to prove that his program had reached a cruising level in the upper half of the SEC’s Eastern Division."

He deserves a ton of shit for the entire article, but this carved out gem is just hilarious.

Being a "sports journalist" is tricky - they want access, and sometimes they just bend over.

Crawford's framing of "expectations" for UK football in this article is embarassing.

Then again, his willingness to offer fanboy solutions might be worse than his silly, completely out of touch expectations, it's hard to say which is more incriminating.

Somebody just arrest that man and figure out what to do with him after 30 days.
 
They are really lucky the SEC East is way down outside of UGA and Florida. Miss St and South Carolina aren’t good. They got smoked by both of them. With that said Vandy, UT and Arkansas are terrible even as bad as UK is playing I can envision them losing to any of those teams.
 
They catch Arky @ home with the Hogs coming off a tough loss against A&M, a ranked team they have a historical rivalry against, in front of a good crowd. So there's a for sure motivational/timing of game edge for UK in that one - but this can probably be said most weeks.

Most SEC teams play UK following a game or prior to a game against a ranked opponent - the Cats traditionally catch their opponents with low motivation.

I think every game other than Georgia and the small TN school out of conference is a toss-up for UK until further notice. They will probably find their 6/7 wins, but they don't have to pull it off.

Their season is probably on the line next week.

Arkansas should have beat A&M.
Arky and SuCkS are both on bye weeks before they meet. Im guessing Arky will be +1 dog or a -3 road favorite in 13 days.

Vandy put up 31 on LSU. That is not a penciled in win.

Tennessee may SuCk, but theyll beat SuCkS. They smashed them last year despite SuCkS FINALLY winning 10 games.

SuCkS football is on life support.
Arkansas will pull the plug.

Both the kitties and Hogs have a bye next week. So both have two weeks to prepare for their matchup. I watched a portion of the Arkansas-A&M game yesterday. The Hogs are capable of beating the kitties. I think they’re catching the Doughboy troops at a good time. I think the crowd will be down and if the Hogs get off to a good start I like their chances. I think the spread will be a pick’em game or maybe kitties -2 due to playing at home.

I like the way you think!
 
What headline should have read regarding the Mildcats:

No ins, outs or what have yous.
 
half of the people who live in louisville are kentucky fans so hard to see bias in any local reporting considering half of their audience likes the other school
