KY leads at beginning of 2nd half 21-10

KY already with 55 yards in penalties

KY'S defense is winning the line of scrimmage today!

I'm having to log out and log back in in order to place a single post on this site now.

Leary fumbles it away, but Lovette interception gets the ball back for KY.

Davis picks up 7 yards on 1st down

Leary intercepted at the KY 35 yard line.

KY leads 21-19 with exactly 7 minutes to play in the game and recieving the kickoff. Offense needs to do something this time if we want to hang on for the win!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-29-2023, 03:01 PM:

Ever see such a pitiful display in all of your life?

3 turnovers on consecutive drives. KY's 11 point lead is now a 6 point deficit!

Brown with a rushing touchdown, a recieving touchdown and a kickoff return for a touchdown.

We sure don't seem to be playing with fire today.

Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 12-29-2023, 03:19 PM:

Wow! Great slant pass to the TE. The the 29th TD for Davis.

Up by 5... 2:39 to go.

Can we hold on?

Hope our 2-minute defense is up to the challenge.

Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 12-29-2023, 03:32 PM:

Nope.

UK down by 3 points with 17 seconds to go.

Oh well.

Unbelievable finish to the football game.
Not sure who the defensive coordinator is, but I'd have to have a huge discussion with him.

Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 12-29-2023, 03:34 PM:

Well, that's what happens when your D coordinator plays to not lose the game instead of winning it. Rushed 3 every play and gave them huge cushions all the way down the field. Absolutely ridiculous defensive play calling on that last drive. Been getting pressure all day and then you decide to just sit there and do nothing. Way to give the game away.

Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 12-29-2023, 03:36 PM:

Leary waaaay overshot his receiver, leading to the 4th turnover of the FOURTH QUARTER...

Game over.

Glad to see our players all show up for the final bowl game. That in itself was meaningful.

But, ouch. What a sh*tty ending.

I'm so pissed right now. Sums up this team all season. They suck you in by playing good at times and then tear your heart out by terrible play, self inflicted wounds, and awful calling by the defense, and then 4 turnovers in the 4th quarter, counting the last atrocious overthrow by Leary. They got me all excited for a win despite the turnovers, and then the defense just rips your cuts out by playing completely passive the whole last drive. I still thought we were going to win on a field goal at the end. How stupid am I to have any belief. Just freaking gave the game away. At least this season is over and we can hope that we actually fulfill the promising outlook for next year.

Brad White kills me with the soft defense that allows them to nickel and dime you all the way to the end zone. I’d rather blitz and take a chance on applying pressure. If they beat you deep at least you get the ball back with some time on the clock. How many times have we seen this movie?
