Rankings:
UofL Total Defense: 21st
UK Total Offense: 98th
UK Total Defense: 40th
UofL Total Offense: 22nd
UK hasn't beaten a team with a winning record all season. The composite record of the opponents they've beaten: 23-43.
Stepping away from the numbers, UK has a solid run game. They are aggressive and play pretty good defense (at times.) And, as we know, they've had our number. They took full advantage of UofL being down and having a clueless HC, and have claimed supremacy because of it. They'll be confident.
That said, Jeff clearly gets it. He knows the rivalry. Plus, the pendulum has to swing back in our favor at some time. This is the perfect time. Look at those rankings above. The Cards are one hell of a good football team. UK, not so much.
Go Cards!
