With 4 wins under our belt, our best chance to hit the magical No6 is probably against our next two opponents. Eastern and Vandy. I would think we would have to take these next two or it may be a bad year for the Cats. We probably should have beaten Miss St. Didn't really expect us to lose that one, but we did, so I really wouldn't want to rely on the Cats Beating Georgia, nor Tenn for us to go to a Bowl game. I think we could definately knock either Georgia and Tenn off, just don't want to rely on it.

JMO, but I think UK may have a better chance of beating Georgia than Vanderbilt.

Coming into the season I thought UK would be either 5-7 or 6-6 depending on the outcome of the UGA game (I just had UK losing to Auburn and beating Miss. State).

If we get everyone back healthy we should be able to compete against Ga.
But as I eluded to before the season started, we aint beating Tn.

UNC, i think you nailed the problem when you mention the physical condition of our players.. We as a team do not have the back-ups as most all other SEC teams and it does cause us problems every year. When we do dont have injuries, especially key injuries we do all right, not to say we would win the league title because we still don't have near the players to do that but we would do much better if we did have enough back-up players to still be competitive. Until this stituation changes we can pretty much look at 5-7, 6-6 or 7-5 seasons.

I thought that we had made gains in depth in recruiting the last few years, or so they said. What's going on? I've always contended that Brooks' staff was never very good at looking out for potential injuries, especially when ACL's are involved.
