Our team is starting to show signs of potential elite tendencies
I know it's Kentucky and as Dan likes to say "we don't lose to Kentucky" but when was the last time we beat them 45-7? Try 1994 when we beat them 47-7 in Lexington. And let's be honest that 7 was a fluke. Just a total team effort in every phase and on all sides of the ball- offense, defense, special teams and even Hevesy's group is playing well.
The team we beat in 1994 lost to Louisiana-Monroe and went 1-10. This Kentucky team will go to a bowl and win between 7-9 games this year. That was a good team that we destroyed today. They could be a top 25 team but we'll see how the year shakes out.
But when a team is solid in all phases like we are becoming- and it's still a work in progress- that's how you take that next step to 9-10 wins a year. And it looks like we are improving by the week. The secondary is playing much better. We're working in taller WR's like Couch. Heck, I saw Peters on the first series of the game and be played a lot.
We've learned how to dominate at home but now we have to see if we have learned how to win on the road. We'll find out next weekend.
