Out of all the games on the schedule this season, which game do you feel will be this years major upset (a win obviously)?
My pick is Alabama. I think the Cats catch the Tide napping and pull off the upset in Lexington.

I'd really like to see how they play tomorrow first, but for some reason I think it will be Florida. I guess I'm feeling overly optimistic today. Let's hope I'm right.
Go Cats!!!

I think UK will finally beat the orange stain this year, but Vegas might have that game as a toss up.
My pick would be USC.
As a Cat fan, I hope they knock some big boys off the mountain this season. But, in college football, those big boys are hard to match up with.

Not to sound like a pessimist but no way we come close to beating Bama or Fla. Tn's defense is pretty good but I still am not sure we are there yet. Right now, beating Auburn would be an upset to me.

If we don't play better than we did today, beating Vandy will be an upset. UT is playing a very hard fought, even game with UF.
I was very disappointed with both our defense and our offense today. It looked like the offense decided to take the 3rd quarter off today and the defense, even though it had some great plays, it also gave up way too much.

6-6. No big SEC upset unless we can play better than today. We were outplayed by Louisville in a lot of areas today.

Unless there's dramatic improvement there will be zero upsets and zero SEC wins. I watched all the SEC games yesterday and the talent gap between UK and the rest - Vandy might be the exception - is huge.

The only good thing about yesterday is that those are the types of games we used to lose in the final minute. It's not beating the top echelon of the SEC, but it's a win and an ugly win is better than a pretty loss.

I agree Bayer. This year could be the beginning of Joker Phillips starting to move up. I feel this will be the worst year for us in the past 4 years.

No matter what year Phillips steps up it will be a step down for the program. With the exception of the continuity factor I can see no positive aspect of the coach-in-waiting decision.
