Coach Talk

Come Get Some
Well Come Get Some, the good news is that we won this matchup by 11.56 points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this... in fact, our team's scoring average through 14 weeks was 128.26. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also get back up to where we know we can be!
Kentucky Zombie
Kentucky Zombie will find it tough to gripe about lack of opportunities this past week. Our pass-catching corps (two WR, one TE) were targeted a healthy 19 times in Week 15. With only 10 total catches, that group may be showing signs of chemistry issues.
