JoJo will more than make up for Saturday's miscues.
Kentucky coach Mark Stoops joked Saturday that it wouldn’t “be a problem now” getting running back JoJo Kemp’s attention after he threw an interception and fumbled out of the Wildcat formation in the win over Louisiana-Monroe following his breakout performance a week earlier against South Carolina.
“We love Jojo. Like he told me coming out, he said, ‘I’m sorry, Coach.’ I said, ‘For what? You’re not perfect. You’re going to make mistakes.’ That’s why we had to get him some touches there in the (second) half to get him back out there doing it and operating and everything. He’ll need it, and he’ll play well,” Stoops said.
No running back got significant carries against ULM but Stoops said that was due to the offense only running 59 plays in the 48-14 win.
“That’s not what we want to do, obviously. So what we have, that’s two possessions on pick 6s, right? And then the one short field on the kickoff return. That basically takes about three possessions away from the offense right there. And we didn’t do as good a job of getting off the field (defensively) real quick early in that game,” Stoops said.
“Later, I felt like we got some stops. The ball controlled it a little bit and moved it on us, and that shortened up the game, 59 snaps. We were struggling. Nobody offensively got the touches they probably wanted to.”
