  1. Stay away from the west end. It really is a lot like Austin when I was growing up in the 90s. Bardstown road, Cherokee Park and Frankfort Ave are all great areas centrally located with lots of great food and activities!! NuLu downtown is great too!
  2. Honestly, don’t mess with staying in Lexington. It’s easier and cheaper to stay in the east end in Louisville or in Cincinnati. It is a bit of a drive but it’ll be cheaper and have more to do than you would in Lex. I lived in Louisville and love it up there just not in the cards to get back up there this year.
  3. Oh I think he’ll be on the field against Texas. Not sure what game the criminals are playing but they are up to something.
  4. This is our best year yet haha!! Seriously though, I think part of it does have to do with the pre-snap movement and motion that forces o-line to be in stances longer than others and with teammates moving around in their peripheral vision plus defensive adjustments. The holding is just lack of awareness IMO, these guys (DJ Campbell I’m looking at you) need to learn to let go and take a shorter gain or even a loss rather than setting us back so far behind the chains. Special teams on return specifically is to just leave it alone if there’s ANY chance of a block in the back or a hold. I think it is a lot about teaching these guys to trust their technique AND athleticism as well as the guys around them. Also, maturity, knowing that making fewer mistakes in critical moments sets you up for success AND the added benefit of forcing your opponent to have to perform without making a mistake. As a baseball player we took pride in the teams that were successful at committing the fewest errors and making all the fundamental plays. THAT takes a team from good to great and makes those tough games come out in your favor.
  5. Damn skippy
  6. Not against us but against the Aggies maybe.
  7. That was a hell of a catch too even though he was beat he hustled and more often than not that ball gets dropped
  8. Love this!! Talk about a real DUDE!!
  9. Agree!! I have watched the UTEP game and Stroh was atrocious on run blocking and liked absolutely lost out there more often than not. It’s good we’ve gotten him experience, but I think we need to get Neto’s mean streak out there and push some B’s around!!
  10. No he’ll be grandfathered in 😂😂😂
  11. Haha! I’m confident he will and be the first manning to win both a natty and Heisman!!
  12. The road to the SWC championship runs through Lubbock. They’re still waiting to see who’s on the road and when anyone is coming…but it’s in Lubbock lol
  13. The stache has to go
  14. Agree he got smoked on the goal line run in the first quarter by #7 that stuffed Gibson for a loss.
  15. It could be worse look at ND and Clemson with their struggles. It is a long season and I’d rather be slumping now than at the end of the season. Let TAMU and OU have their flowers now. We just need to focus on getting better offensively and we’ll start gelling and hitting on all cylinders. Would like to see some anger, intensity, and fight on the o-line.
  16. I agree with this. I think Arch will be ok ultimately once he stops thinking and starts playing.
  17. 63-7, CJ Baxter 2 TDS with tough inside runs inside the red zone. Wingo had 3 tds on deep 50+ yards. Gibson and Clark both have 2 TDS as well.
  18. Damn straight! What’re we paying these guys for if not perfection!!
  19. Where are Wilson and JJR in the secondary rotation the next few weeks? Are there any receivers that aren’t the freshman class or the usual suspects that we might be on the lookout for too?
  20. Definitely 5) all but 4 haha!
  21. I’ll take arch over Sayin this year all day. Sayin didn’t beat Texas. Texas beat Texas.
  22. That seems about where we should be honestly. We’re a great defensive team with a ton of upside. Arch will get better just look at his growth from ULM to MSU last season. He learned from his mistakes improved dramatically and if not for fumbles and drops we probably win that game by 50.
  23. H8rz gunna H8. I have faith, we played a good team at home the first game of the season and lost because we aren’t executing at the level we will at the end of the year. Let’s get them back if/when we see them in the playoffs
  24. Tough loss, but it was a tall task to go in there and win even with Arch. I line looked pretty good. Arch was seeing ghosts especially on that throw to Wingo on 3&5. Good experience for the team and the defense was pretty much lights out it took a double catch by Tate to win that for them. I think this sets us up nicely to be ready for FL and GA games when it matters. Running game looks decent at times. Lots to build on.
