In the past at this time of the year we always seemed to be so banged up that we had no chance of a win especially if those games were Georgia and Tennessee like we have to play this year. This year however even though we have a couple of injuries we have some adequate back-ups and we truly have a legitiment chance to beat eiher Georgia or Tennessee.
If we can win one of the remaining games we can make it to one of the more desireable bowls maybe even to the Chick-fil-A bowl in Atlanta or even one in the state of Florida.
We have a chance to change a couple of nagging records as we haven't beat Georgia between the hedges since 1977 and haven't beat Tennessee since 1984 period. This could be the year or at least to beat one them and if we did beat both of them we would finish in second place in the tough Eastern division of the SEC. Is it likely we win both games, heck no but it is possible and we do have a shot to do it which hasn't been there for a long, long time.

This team continues to surprise me.
While Georgia is certainly down this year, those SEC road games make for scarce 'W's. My best hope is to end the season at 7-5, with a close loss to Georgia and a win (FINALLY!!!!) against Tennessee.

I think we can win out, but our BIGGEST, OBVIOUS WEAKNESS is our passing game. If we had a passing game to go with our running game we could win both of these games easily!!
We're so one demensional it is scary!

Georgia and Tennesse are a combined 11-9, on the year, not the powers they usually are. I'd love to see Kentucky come out saturday and right out of the box hit LeRon King for a twenty yard pass
and follow it up with one to Matthews. Now wouldn't that shake up Georgia's gameplan?.

I hate to say it but we aint beating TN.
We have a shot against Ga but will have to have our offense put up at least 21 points.

Newton seems to be progressing nicely and each game he learns and gains confidence. Hopefully he can have a breakout game against Georgia and if he does our chance of winning increases greatly.
