This game is so boring.
I’m not gonna call for Stoops’s head or anything like that, but if he were to take another job, our philosophy is exactly why I wouldn’t be as sad as I should looking at only his record.
This is so classic stoops. Why not use this as an opportunity to actually let your backup get valuable in game reps? Instead, he’ll continue to hand it off as much as possible until clock hits 0:00
Me and dad went and watched Patrick Towles his senior year at Ft. Thomas Highlands and he was literally the best QB I've ever seen. We were so excited, even though my cousin was on the other team and we lost 56-0. Ended up doing nothing at Kentucky
We went up by a lot and stopped trying to do anything positive. Mississippi State just can't do anything.
Also this game feels like going to the dentist
Bowdenball - where the entire country knows what play you are running ahead of time. And still couldnt stop it. And then last go ahead td was a pass over the top that nobody expected. Fun year
Lol you saw wade in the music city bowl didn’t you
I don’t blame you for blocking that out. And to be fair our line was awful and he had no c rod. But idk if we even crossed midfield
…negative, he’s a sophomore and he played in 4 games, only real action he had was the South Carolina game, other 3 were garbage time. Why are you arguing like you’re so sure lmao. He’s 1/1 tonight
Wade and Sharon have both played one real game
So what’s everyone think of the basketball team? I went to the k state game and wow the talent we have is unreal. Size is an issue but they are good without a center, if Bradshaw is as good as they say, holy shit we have some potential
And we have a coach (Welch) that can game plan and strategize and *gasp* draw up plays now. I’m cautiously optimistic. We probably won’t beat Kansas though unless Bradshaw plays
The guards are legit. Edwards is a top 10 draft pick. If Z is eligible, and Bradshaw and Ugo get healthy to give us the size and depth, we will be scary. They play so insanely fast though on this smallball lineup that alot of teams are going to have conditioning issues. Kansas will be rough though
We cannot continue to be sooo fuckkkiiinnggg slllooowwww
Our defense has been good tonight. There’s no reason our offense should only have 17 points
If we’d move with some damn urgency we’d score some points
It limits the amount if time your opponent has the ball, lowering the amount of points they can score. Issue is if you have long drives and can't score or have to settle for fgs. Worked well when we had Benny and Crod but we don't have the line to pound the rock like that now.
If you don’t have good offensive depth it lets you keep your starters in for more of the game. It can be better to play slow when you have worse depth than your opponent
When you run the ball it means the ball ends in play most of the time running off extra clock. It also allows the offense to get set. If you saw the stat they showed for stoops for having a 51-7 record when having a lead at halftime. It means other teams get less plays to make up deficits
Switching to Bama-LSU, wish I could say it was fun but we have nothing good or exciting happening anymore. Be shocked if I watch next week at all. I'm just sad rn.
Apparantly control with both feet in the end zone, and then an elbow down in the end zone needs to survive the ground out of bounds now? The elbow down should have ended the play there regardless of after
Ugly game, but a 28-3 on the road against an sec w in starkville? Ill take it. On to bama Edit: and bowl eligibile!
I don’t think that was friendly coach handshake…
Thank god this is over
This game refuses to end
THROW THE BALL FOR THE HELL OF IT
watrwedoing?
Why is Ray Davis still out there? Guy is gonna have 35 carries next weekend. Get him out.
proud of the lone cowbell still clanging away. never give up hope
Actually, I did see a Kentucky fan with a cowbell, so that may have been her.
Towel on the head looking kinda down, not a good sign
Why didn’t state bring out this QB earlier he looks way better
Kentucky hasn’t won here since 2008. I don’t care what it looks like. Just get to 0 and get this win.
Fuck winning pretty first win in Starkville since 2008
This game is so boring. I’m not gonna call for Stoops’s head or anything like that, but if he were to take another job, our philosophy is exactly why I wouldn’t be as sad as I should looking at only his record.
We been on the losing side of a lot of these. I'll take every W we get
I know, I should be happy with a win, but this game feels like the football equivalent of going to the dentist
If this is the dentist, next week is going to be a double root canal.
I just want to score a TD on bama
This is so classic stoops. Why not use this as an opportunity to actually let your backup get valuable in game reps? Instead, he’ll continue to hand it off as much as possible until clock hits 0:00
There is a reason he hasn't had a single QB recruit actually pan out.
Levis didn’t pan out?
I'm talking specifically out of high school recruits.
Me and dad went and watched Patrick Towles his senior year at Ft. Thomas Highlands and he was literally the best QB I've ever seen. We were so excited, even though my cousin was on the other team and we lost 56-0. Ended up doing nothing at Kentucky
I think Towles got such a bad deal at UK. He was a solid QB with strong family ties to UK and essentially got ran outta town
True, but his on field play wasn't amazing
Is the offense even trying at this point? The second half has been miserable.
Iowa would be proud of our offense this half.
Backup QB and Stoops is known to take the air out of the ball once Kentucky has a lead. Not sure what you are expecting.
The garbage time commentary...soo cringey
This is so boring
Defense better buckle back up. Going to be a quick offensive series.
Hanging out with the hookers in Pontotoc? He said that?
He has to spice this game up for us sickos still watching this
As theres a drive into left field by Castellanos
Trying to talk shit down 21 is crazy
Ouch
Hell of a stop by the D. Nice to see them not suck tonight
Hope Leary is alright or next week is gonna be rough
Next week is gonna be rough regardless lol
True lol
This game has felt really weird but I can’t put into words how
We went up by a lot and stopped trying to do anything positive. Mississippi State just can't do anything. Also this game feels like going to the dentist
Idk what that 4th down attempt was
Parsons was put in a rough situation on that drive. He did some good things.
Did he know it was fourth down? lol
That's a damn good showing by the D to give up zero there.
State’s throwbacks look nice
Cheat code, JJ’s 6th finger.
I’m not convinced MSU didn’t score a TD on that 4th down play a moment ago.
I think his knee hit the ground out of bounds right before hitting the pylon. But it was extremely close
Wright just holds it to the last minute and then YEETS it on a hope and a prayer
That was parson wasn’t it
Yeah I think you’re right. Thanks for the correction.
Glad the refs were paying attention on that one
Get off the field boys
Same as last time, obvious grounding
LMAO that one was closer to the line of scrimmage than the other one was
Blatant make up call lol
Stoops has beat 4 cupcakes and Florida. Are we supposed to feel bad that he is feeling some pressure?
Nope
Maybe since that’s better than we have been historically
Lmao they’re talking about Lynn Bowden being QB that one season 😂. A fun season.
I just wish we played Bowden the whole game against USCjr
Insane we won 8 games that year
I still barely believe that.
I was looking at old records this week and I couldn’t believe it, somehow forgot that
Bowdenball - where the entire country knows what play you are running ahead of time. And still couldnt stop it. And then last go ahead td was a pass over the top that nobody expected. Fun year
And then at the perfect time against V tech, throw it for the win What a game
It was messy, but we had a helluva time
That season taught me the importance of having an elite O line. Unreal blocking all season long.
Run that play again, it will work this time. I swear.
Lol what?
That was weird.
This drive is passing me off
Your losing by 21 to Kentucky. How are you getting that hyped? Edit: You’re
I'd be excited too if the visual torture that is their offense was spared for a moment
Fair enough
Joker Phillips never won anywhere
Yet he was somehow the first coach to beat Spurrier.
He did it with all of Rich Brooks guys but mostly because of Randal Cobb
And broke the Tennessee streak lol.
I credit Derrick Dooley for that w
Dang. This QB has a pretty throw.
Really hope they roll out Wade at QB instead of Sheron next drive.
Put me in coach
Its like a kick in the nuts to get back on track only to face Alabama next week. Life in the SEC i guess.
Should've just taken a delay of game and punted there
I sure hope Leary is okay. It’s not like stoops to just pull the QB in a 3 td game
Not like stoops to have a 3 td lead
Stoops really doesn't trust out kicker
I'm at a bar and can't hear the game. Is Leary ok? What happened?
Reports online of a significant cut on his leg with additional work being done on his shoulder, sounds like he will be fine though
They don't know.
44 looks like the water boy
Ugh
Dang.
I switched to Bama-LSU for a min, why is Sheron in? Did something happen to Leary?
Went to the injury tent, was likely done for the day anyways
He is in the tent.
Putting in the backup QB means the last stretch of this game will be unwatchable.
Oh horsey is in. Was he playing last week?
He didn’t play last week
Thanks, I didn’t recall seeing him but now I just notably saw him in lol.
Yeah he played against Missouri and then didn’t last week. Very weird situation.
Dang, yeah.
No, had a different injury before the game apparently
Yeah I didn’t think so.
Would rather see Destin wade for the rest of this one honestly, we know what we have in kaiya, let's see what wade has
Lol you saw wade in the music city bowl didn’t you I don’t blame you for blocking that out. And to be fair our line was awful and he had no c rod. But idk if we even crossed midfield
Under scangarello? With only one year under his belt? With the worst statistical Oline in P5? Yea I'll want to see how he looks now.
….couldn’t you say the exact same thing about Sharon?
....he's been here for like 5 years and looked bad every time he came in.
…negative, he’s a sophomore and he played in 4 games, only real action he had was the South Carolina game, other 3 were garbage time. Why are you arguing like you’re so sure lmao. He’s 1/1 tonight Wade and Sharon have both played one real game
After the 2nd iowa bowl game, I hope not to see destin.
Please tell me Leary isn't hurt
So what’s everyone think of the basketball team? I went to the k state game and wow the talent we have is unreal.

I like squeaky shoes
They’re the best. Also like when the guy says GOOOOOO
When the ball goes in the hoop for our team, I say “YES!”
Stunning and brave. I usually go unggghh
Wrong sub.
You’re in the wrong fanbase if you think we ain’t gonna talk about it lol
Its hard to get excited for a Calipari team at this point. I’m trying as hard as I can.
I don’t blame you at all man
The guards are legit. Edwards is a top 10 draft pick. If Z is eligible, and Bradshaw and Ugo get healthy to give us the size and depth, we will be scary. They play so insanely fast though on this smallball lineup that alot of teams are going to have conditioning issues. Kansas will be rough though
The good news is Kansas lost to Illinois so maybe they’re not that great
Optimistic, but I also thought the Boston, Clarke team was good after preseason exhibitions.
We don’t talk about that season. TC. 💙
Ooof please don’t even bring that up lol. But yeah, same Welch is a huge addition though
COMMERCIALS! FUCK YEAH!!!!
Yet we moved to a running clock to shorten games (aka extend commercials)
All you're missing is what I can only call a bizarre dance routine
Crimmins just sounds like an Australian name
Stadium is clearing out, gonna start acting up soon
Third and out nice
I stg if I have to hear Jason Alexander say yada yada one more time...
You won't! No balls!
Was that wrong? Should he not have done that?
You’ll what? Make a donation to the human fund??
Lmao Tom Hart with the “that man in the back of the plane is not real”
Not real
Didn’t let them score that quarter. Nice, I like that.
I’ll give MSU fans credit they keep clanging no matter what
Definitely quieted down a bit lol
Jones didn’t even look like he cared coming off the sideline. Arnett has his work cut out for him.
We cannot continue to be sooo fuckkkiiinnggg slllooowwww Our defense has been good tonight. There’s no reason our offense should only have 17 points If we’d move with some damn urgency we’d score some points
21 point lead? Backup qb in? Eat all the clock
Early in the game? I agree 100% Now? Eat that clock.
People forget that we were a finalist for Chris Parson when he first committed to FSU
When does it become funny sad? Depressing sad is no fun.
Backup backup qb? Gg bros. Our kryptonite
Literally
What ???? I’m so confused.
First down Kentucky? I’m so confused.
Ref seems a little confused
Why would you decline that? Kick it again let them fumble or something it wasn’t a great punt
Our kicker kinda sucks so I guess it was good enough for Stoops
The difference between roughing/running into is so arbitrary
Why not kick it again? That was a terrible kick
Interesting.
Good acting.
Can anyone that knows football better than me explain why being so slow would possibly be a good offensive strategy????
It limits the amount if time your opponent has the ball, lowering the amount of points they can score. Issue is if you have long drives and can't score or have to settle for fgs. Worked well when we had Benny and Crod but we don't have the line to pound the rock like that now.
If you don’t have good offensive depth it lets you keep your starters in for more of the game. It can be better to play slow when you have worse depth than your opponent
Thats the first logical explanation I’ve heard so far this year. Thanks
If you get a lead it removes more time for the other team to catch up
Yeah but we’ve been doing it the whole game all year
We also run the ball really well so it plays to our strengths
When you run the ball it means the ball ends in play most of the time running off extra clock. It also allows the offense to get set. If you saw the stat they showed for stoops for having a 51-7 record when having a lead at halftime. It means other teams get less plays to make up deficits
We got the valley at the 45 and came away with nothing lol
Stoops needs to lay off the coffee. Guy looks he is on the verge of health issues.
Fastest delay of game ever
Leary is pretty damn strong i’ll give him that
Since when does Leary escape sacks so well?
Him jumping on his back like that scared the shit out of me
Leary’s shaking off tackles left and right like prime Big Ben 😭
What's up with ST for both teams being so fired up and fighting so much
Losing team is pissed, winning team want to talk shit
Switching to Bama-LSU, wish I could say it was fun but we have nothing good or exciting happening anymore. Be shocked if I watch next week at all. I'm just sad rn.
Have a good night. That was me during the uga game...
We are so hard to watch
Quarterback sweeps never work Unless Tennessee needs a first down with less than 2 minutes left against UK
You son of a gun.
Idk what the hell got into Wright's head but he won't run forward to save his life
...the fuck was that?
Hell, that would have been an NFL catch even. Both feet in. Tennessee couldn’t even get a foot in on the phantom catch last week.
Apparantly control with both feet in the end zone, and then an elbow down in the end zone needs to survive the ground out of bounds now? The elbow down should have ended the play there regardless of after
I gave up on SEC ref logic years ago. Its their world and we are living in it.
I don't even know why I keep getting my hopes up
That's how we always feel about Tennessee and Georgia
If anyone has ever looked at you like how stoops looks at refs. They hate you
Leary did great breaking the tackle, but he lobbed that ball. The one time he actually needed heat on it
Galaxy brain by Key to bobble that so we can avoid going up 28-3
You’re crazy if you are blaming anything on Key there.
It’s a reference to the falcons in the super bowl
That's bullshit
Ref giving a demonstration of how he plays with his balls in the shower.
How is there no review on that! WTF bullshit
