Following Kentucky’s first scrimmage, Mark Stoops said the Cats were, “just good enough to be average.” Unsatisfied with the sloppy performance, the stakes are even higher this Saturday at Kroger Field.
“The second scrimmage in training camp is a huge evaluation of where you’re at within the competition of your team,” defensive coordinator Matt House said.
Stoops did not like the energy on either side of the ball. The defense looked to Josh Allen to set the tone, but he struggled to make a big play the could ignite the defense. He does not plan on replicating that performance.
“We just got to play together,” Allen said. “We gotta execute the calls on both sides. We have to make some big plays. There wasn’t a lot of big plays being made. We took that to heart and we’re going to come out with a different mentality this week.”
House saw flashes of greatness in the Cats’ first scrimmage, but they were too infrequent.
“We did some good things, but we didn’t have the energy we needed to have. We didn’t necessarily have the great plays and consistency,” House said. “This scrimmage will tell a lot more.”
Whoever puts the best tape on the field Saturday will move into a position to play this fall.
