    I thought those 70,000 just get together and talk basketball while a football game goes on in the backround?

    Boiler up! Michigan and Ohio State are off Purdue's schedule, and we return all our defensive starters and 7 on offense. Plus, our kicker and punter . So we will be pretty good I think. Since I have season tickets they better not choke.

    That's what I like to hear.

    I'd have to agree with you, I think they can be good this year. If Kirsch does enough stupid stuff to make Joe mad, I think Painter could take over and not look back.

    Count me among the ignorant masses in Lexington who will sit through just about anything on a Saturday afternoon resembling collegiate football. My family and I have had twelve UK season football tickets since 1976....

    I'll even take this psychosis one step further. Of the twelve season football tickets I just mentioned, during the late 70's, my father obtained four of them (seven rows up on the 47 yard line) by forfeiting a pair of season UK basketball tickets (albeit upper arena). Don't ask. Let's just say that Pops was never much of a Joe B. Hall fan...

    Between watching hundreds of UK football games over the last nearly thirty years and having graduated from the University of Florida, I don't really know any brand of football other than the SEC. I have been to games at most of the conference stadia (with the exception of Arkansas and Mississippi State). By the way, if you've never taligated at some of these SEC towns...it's hard to describe to you the atmosphere.

    You didn't happen to go to a certain game in 2002 against a certain team from Louisiana, did you? I'll never forget that game as long as I live.

    I bet a lot of people are glad these guys are out of the MAC.

    UK-a team that knows too much about heartbreak in the SEC. They have been somewhat competitive against decent competition in different years, but have never came away with a win.

    I can only take so much, thats why I pull for them in basketball only.

    I bet all those people live in West Virginia too.

    What fun would it be to be the 5th best team in the MAC this year?

    Marshall ran scared. Once they stopped buying the MAC title game life got tough.

    Let's put it this way. Not only was I there, but I was actually on the field as the Hail Mary was caught. Because I only had to walk down a few rows, I thought to myself--What the Hell? And I hopped the wall down onto the field and watched the last 2-3 plays from the UK sideline. I admit that I was far too old to be caught up in the "Goalposts: The Sequel" hype, but we had just been so putrid for so long...I mean, only at UK would would fans go after the goal posts after beating a team that was barely in the Top 25 at the time, right?

    I'll never forget the look on the faces of the students that were situated on the opposite end of the field and had no idea the Cats had lost the game. You've heard of the "Walk of Shame"???--Guys were quickly climbing back down from the uprights and the UK players were just walking around like zombies. The field was like a church it was so quiet. Guy Morriss, who was wearing a white shirt that was completely soaked thru from his Gatorade bath only seconds earlier, looked like he was going to hurl on his State Trooper escort. I walked up to Shane Boyd (QB) and told him to "hang with 'em"...all he kept saying was, "That's boosh*t, man. Boosh*t..."

    No Shane. That's just the latest chapter in the never-ending saga.

    Oh come on Krono, Starkville is a nice town. Very little crime, good restaurants and now with Croom runing the show instead of Jackie Sherrill you migh just see a good team on the field. Bum rap you give the town, yeah I agree it is not Lexington, Nashville or some big city, still a nice little town, other than Oxford, probably the smallest town in the SEC. Watch out for the BullDogs this year, they may just surprise you.
