Tennessee 30 - Kentucky 24 (OT)
#61
FBALL Wrote:Just to play Devil's advocate:

Was it joker's fault that Newton tried to get the corner on that last play? If he cuts inside the kickout block by Locke he at the very least gives UK first and goal and may have scored. That's just a freshman mistake.

Was the play calling the reason UK didn't score in OT? The first down play should have been good for big yardage and maybe even a TD if the pass is caught. There was nobody in front of Allen going down that sideline. The option play should have been checked out of at the LOS or cut back up the field. You can't run laterally against that kind of pressure.

For those who wanted Cobb handling the ball more. Was it all right when he missed wide open recievers or even on the one completion didn't get the ball to Matthews in stride. If that happens that play is a TD. I'm not blaming Cobb either. He was hurting and at the end was completely gassed. These guys are not super human. Cobb can't do everything.

I'm not going to blame Cobb or Newton or Phillips or anyone else. There were mistakes by both teams players and coaches. In the end UK was just physically beat up and Tennesee took it to them.

1. Its jokers fault that Newton had the ball!
2. Its jokers fault we went away from running the ball once we got in scoring position.
3. Why not ride your 2 horses (cobb,Locke,) On into victory. They marched us down the field after the fumble and then we tell them they have done enough lets go with the freshmen QB?
4. We shouldn't have been in overtime. It was jokers conservative play calling in the last series that got us beat.
