It's the way of the modern fan.
After Kentucky beat Louisville 31-27 two weeks back, fans regarded Rich Brooks as the coach with three straight bowl wins and three straight triumphs over the school's archrival.
But after Kentucky was crushed 41-7 by Florida last Saturday, in fans' eyes, Brooks was suddenly the coach 1-24 against SEC East foes not named Vanderbilt, a coach in need of a rocking chair back in Oregon.
Message to fans: Just chill.

If you take out the first quarter, the score was 10-7 the rest of the game. I don't know what kind of meltdown happened in the first quarter for UK, but they seemed to get back in line, at least defensively for the remainder of the game...Florida's total rushing yards not withstanding of course... ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

I'm not a fan that was thumping my chest over the UofL win. There was nothing, repeating NOTHING, impressive about it from a team growth stand-point. UK scored one TD less than they should have and allowed 27 points that they should not have.
