15 turnovers on the season so far doesn't help productivity much!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 06:12 PM:

Make that 16 turnovers now! Good grief!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 06:13 PM:

Not real sure about the penalty after the play!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 06:14 PM:

Defense has to step up here only up 7 now after 2nd consecutive turnover!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 06:16 PM:

Terrible spot there!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 06:17 PM:

Review in KY favor

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 06:19 PM:

Daniel makes a huge stop on 4th down to stop Vandy after the KY turnover!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 06:19 PM:

KY will take over on their own 36 yard line!

17-10 cats

Vandy on a big drive deep in UK territory

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 06:43 PM:

F/G makes it 17-13 Cats

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 06:44 PM:

We are going to have to make a move and soon.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 06:46 PM:

We had this game well in hand but are starting to lose our advantage.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 06:48 PM:

Cats have to make a move if they want the victory,

Posted by EnterpriseCat (Member # 2881) on 10-08-2016, 06:53 PM:

We've been living on the edge with Jonhson's inability to pass. It's catching up to us. Defense will have to hold Vandy because the offense won't score again I'm afraid.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 06:55 PM:

need a stop 3rd and 4 for Vandy.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 06:56 PM:

Good stop by the Cats.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 06:57 PM:

Vandy has to punt deep in our territory.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:01 PM:

Cats get a first down just past the 50 yard line

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:02 PM:

4 yards right up the middle for the Cats.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:03 PM:

Nice play down to their 29 yard line.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:04 PM:

Not much of a hole but we are down to the 27 yard line.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:06 PM:

4th and one and Johnson dives for the first down inside the 30 yard line.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:07 PM:

2:42 left in the game and we have the ball, 1st and 10.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:09 PM:

Time out on the field and if we can get one more first down we win the game.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:10 PM:

Snell runs for 8 yards and is over 80 yards for the game.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:11 PM:

Second and 2 and looking good!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:12 PM:

Vandy using their t/o'a to stop the clock.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:14 PM:

No yards on first down but Vandy had to use their last t/o.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:17 PM:

Cats with a time-out and will kick a 12 yard f/g on the next play.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:18 PM:

If the kick is good we have 7 point lead.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:19 PM:

Vandy takes over on the 20 yard line.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:20 PM:

Looks like Vandy got a first down and stopped the clock.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:21 PM:

It's going to be a nail biter for sure.

Posted by EnterpriseCat (Member # 2881) on 10-08-2016, 07:23 PM:

Why call a timeout and give Vandy an opportunity to set up a play. Stoops is not a smart coach

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:23 PM:

It's going down to the end and Vandy needs a TD to win.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:24 PM:

3rd and 6 inside our 20!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:28 PM:

Scary times for sure!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:30 PM:

Delay of game 5 yard penalty and 4th down.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:31 PM:

Incomplete and the Cats survive!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 07:33 PM:

I wasn't sure wether you even had power or not, CMD

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:33 PM:

What a game, they just don't get any closer than that.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:35 PM:

MH, had power but didn't want to jinx them.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:37 PM:

We outgained them 307 to 282!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:37 PM:

We had 20 first down to their 18

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 07:38 PM:

We're going to have to learn to get the ball up in the air!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:39 PM:

WE had the ball 32:44 to their 27:16.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:40 PM:

They had 2 fumbles to our 1!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 07:40 PM:

KY now back to 3-3 on the season.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 07:41 PM:

KY gets a bye week this next weekend giving them time to heal and prep for Mississippi State!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:41 PM:

Penalties were about the same, 42 yards for the Cads 35 for Vandy.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:42 PM:

WE can beat MSU if we play solid and keep the miscues to a minimum,

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:43 PM:

They passed for 141 yards to our 49 yards.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 07:43 PM:

KY is also 2-2 in the SEC as well!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:43 PM:

Passing is a stat we have to improve on.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 07:44 PM:

Passing game has to get untracked to balance the field a little bit!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:44 PM:

50-50 in the SEC isn't bad for us.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 07:45 PM:

We can't continue to depend on the Wildcat formation to bail us out!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:45 PM:

49 yards passing isn't going to get it done.

Posted by boomdaddy (Member # 2644) on 10-08-2016, 07:45 PM:

QB lost his confidence in the 2nd half. That is not good and the coach refused to put in the 2nd string QB. I fault the HC on that decision. UK is now a one QB team and he doesn't have to worry about having a bad game to get benched. I hate that mentality.

Yes, they won the game. But, I hate it when a coach doesn't pull a QB, when he is scared in the pocket.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:46 PM:

We had 258 yards on the ground.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:46 PM:

That is a solid stat and will help win games like it did today.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:47 PM:

When a UK QB wins a game it's great!~

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:48 PM:

Our QB was never sacked which doesn't happen very often.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:49 PM:

It's a big part why we won the game.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 10-08-2016, 07:51 PM:

KY defense didn't yield any touchdowns today!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:52 PM:

We had 4 players who gained over 50 yards on the ground today.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:52 PM:

Vandy has a decent offense too.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:53 PM:

Kemp and Johnson gained over 55 yards and Snell went for for 94!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:54 PM:

Our D played great the whole game.!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:54 PM:

The longest run from scrimmage was 31 yards.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:56 PM:

The only 2 Cats to score a TD was Kemp and our quarterback Johnson!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 07:59 PM:

Our defense carried us allowing only 1 TD and one Field Goal.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 08:07 PM:

The scarry part is that we only scored 3 points in the second half.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 08:09 PM:

Mike Edwards had 8 tackles and 5 of them were solo tackles.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 10-08-2016, 08:12 PM:

To beat Vandy like we did will only help us and give us some much needed confidence.

Posted by Bama Cat (Member # 153) on 10-09-2016, 08:56 AM:

After watching this game from sections 33-34 my only comment is we are going to have a tough time getting to a bowl. We made way too many mistakes both on offense and defense. We still don't know how to tackle and the offensive line doesn't make many holes for our runners. Watching Boom's dad the second half you could tell he wasn't happy. His son got very little playing time after he fumbled the ball. Even when the fans around him were yelled for Snell he sat quietly in his seat. He dresses up in the craziest football uniform and normally is jumping and yelling. I'm sure he sees the emergence of Snell as the primary running back soon.

The other point is the officials for the game, if that's what you want to call them. There were 3 head tackles in the game, 1 in each of the 1st, 3rd and 4th quarters. The first one in the 1st quarter was the worse when Vandy wrapped his arms around the UK player neck and slammed him to the ground. Also the standing whistle that was called in the 4th quarter left everyone around me amazed. One defensive player holding an offensive player still on his feet?

My thoughts of a 4-8 season are close to being true. We just don't score much in the second half. Maybe the depth is starting to show after halftime. I see Austin Peay as the only game left that we may win. MS St, GA and MO should be winable but I just don't think this team can do it.

Snell did play in the first half this game, mainly because Boom dropped the ball. Look for him to maybe start next game, if the coach really wants to win the game.
