Hopefully Hartline came of age in the Arkansas game and hope he improves even more in future games.
I feel for him having to play Tebow and the Gators in the swamp as they are clicking on all cylinders and will be out to impress the polls.
This game could really get ugly..
Kentucky quarterback Mike Hartline was one of six players from across the nation who received an ESPN helmet sticker on the network’s "College Football Final" show on Sunday morning.
Hartline completed 17 of 32 passes for 239 yards and a career-high three touchdowns in Kentucky’s 21-20 comeback victory over Arkansas. Trailing 20-7 in the fourth quarter, Hartline tossed touchdown passes of 32 and 21 yards to wide receiver Randall Cobb in the final five minutes of the game.
The rally tied the school record for the biggest fourth-quarter comeback in school history. In 2004, UK trailed Vanderbilt 13-0 in the final period before rallying to a 14-13 triumph.
It was the second time this season that Hartline has led a fourth-quarter victory. The Wildcats trailed Middle Tennessee 14-10 in the last stanza before coming back for a 20-14 win.

Imho. the coaches need to quit jacking with Hartline's grip on the ball and turn him into a gunslinger. He can be effective, if he can kep the ball chest high and catchable. Hartline needs to quit thinking about making mistakes and just go out and make plays. It would be nice if they let him take off on a run once in awhile, to keep the all out rush in check.
Oh yeah, I would still like to see Cobb play at least a quarter at qb in each game. [ 10-20-2008, 07:28 PM: Message edited by: boomdaddy ]
