2006: Trailing 17-12, Kentucky had a 2nd-and-goal at the UT 3-yard line — yet failed to get a play called in from the sideline in a timely manner. The resulting delay-of-game penalty pushed the Cats back to the 8.
UK's attempt at a game-winning score petered out on the 6.
2007: Trailing 31-28, Andre Woodson drove UK to the Tennessee 2-yard-line. On 1st-and-goal, Rafael Little gained a yard. Kentucky had to take its final timeout with 8 seconds left.
On second down, Woodson and Keenan Burton just missed connecting on a game-winning TD. With only one second left, the Kentucky brain trust elected to kick a tying field goal rather than risking a shot at victory.
UK lost in four overtimes.
2009: Down 24-21, Kentucky moved from the UT 37 to the 10 behind four straight Randall Cobb runs from the Wildcat formation.

I hate to be boring through logical repetiveness, but the kids played at least a 9-3 season and the coaches were lucky to coach a 7-5 season. I don't possibly see how this could change next season. Weaker defense, same bone-head playcallers.

If you give the coaches credit for losing to UT and MSU, then u have to give them credit for winning against Auburn and Georgia. I agree the coaches blew the game against UT, by abandoning the running game. But, they also beat some quality teams.
