Think about last year when we played UK. We were number one and had been really hot. We were pretty sloppy against UK, 1A/1B reared it's ugly head at times and we made Towles look like Andrew Luck 2.0. Yeah we still had moments of dominance like Robinson going crazy on them- but in hindsight we had peaked at the Auburn game last year.
This year we really haven't played up to our potential thus far and have been kind of in a funk- even though we certainly have had some flashes at times. UNTIL tonight. Dak played his best game of the year so far- UK has to be tired of our superstars like Dixon, Robinson, and Dak going completely off on them every year- we are seeing more of the young freshmen RB's in Williams, Lee and Dear. The o-line is getting better every week. And the defense is starting to be even more aggressive and nasty. Remember a few weeks ago when some of us were wondering why we weren't getting any turnovers on defense? We had at least two tonight and we were a senseless penalty from having a pick six. And the special teams continues to be solid.
It will be interesting to see going forward if this game was the turning point. We'll find out for sure in about a month for now.
