Morgan Newton may see playing time today, depending on Maxwell Smith's shoulder.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
Also, will be live-tweeting much of the game as well--so glance at the Twitter feed, or better yet, follow at @MyKSR1 if you will.
Five minutes to kickoff.
Injuries/illnesses/replacements:
Tristan Johnson will be in place of Mister Cobble at DT, who did not make the trip. Some sort of infection.
Cartier Rice also did not make the trip. True freshman Cody Quinn will play in his stead.

Hope it doesn't come to that but Florida will bang him up a great deal today, IMO. Maybe a question of playing through pain.

Interestingly, Morgan Newton chose Kentucky over Florida, as you may remember (I didn't immediately recall that myself).

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
Weird start to the game. UK's defense holds Gators to two straight 3-and-outs.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
UK said today Morgan Newton may get snaps today because of Smith's shoulder, but did not explain he may start.

Another first-quarter boycott of the end zone by the Cats - simply incredible.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
Time to try another QB. What wideout should we use. Worked last time.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
Wow...Morgan Newton is absolutely useless. Misses a WIDE OPEN receiver then looks at his intended receiver for about four seconds and throws a pick six. Joker may love the kid and Smith is hurt but they have to sit him and never put him back in at QB.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
This game was winnable and then Newton trots onto field. Does the Newton family have pictures of Joker in a compromising poistion or what? I hate the other players busting their butts with zero shot of winning. I put it own Joker 100%.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
Smith or Newton or whatever, all this game has done so far is piss me off. The defense has played well, gotten after the QB and stopped the run for the most part and the offense has ran well. If they had done just those three things earlier UK would be 3 -0 whether we could pass the damn ball or not. And Smith would be healthy because we would not have been throwing the ball a zillion times a game with him getting hit a dozen times. How in the world could UK be in Floridas backfield all quarter and not be able to put pressure on Bridgewater?
I'm glad I don't have a cat in the house. I would have punted him by now.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
It makes no sense. Why would they spend so much time talking about Jalen Whitlow in the pre-season and then not play him now? If Newton's back under center in the second half, Joker has given up, which would be a shame because his players haven't.

So limited what you can do with Newton under center.

And some outsiders, say potential coaches are looking at UK and going "what a waste of personnel".

If this weren't so sad it would be laughable.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
Given the situation, what other call is there for Joker to make? Smith is hurt, Newton does give us real game experience, but honestly, what else could we expect with Smith being hurt? Yes, now Whitlow's redshirt is burned as well.
We all knew this was going to happen. But I didn't see Smith getting hurt by WKU, of all teams, although injuries can and will happen at any time. What we're witnessing now is pretty much the sum total of most of what most of us have experienced as Kentucky football fans. Sad, sad state of affairs.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
Game over. Kentucky loses to Florida big, yet again. This time 38-0. But what else can we expect with Morgan Newton at QB for us. No other real choice though, so I guess it's on to play South Carolina next week.
I am just way beyond discouraged right now, as I would guess many other Kentucky fans are as well.

Re: Kentucky v Florida GAME THREAD
I hate it for Joker and am very upset (to say the least) at those who put him in this position. Sadly, that includes even Coach Brooks.
Other than that I am just not interested in UK football anymore. I want success for them but until there is some inkling that hints the Wildcats are becoming a decent division one program, I have no interest. i would be more interested if they dropped to a lower division and tried to compete there.
If it were just football (as it is for some SEC programs) a two team expansion was not needed...the replacement of UK would have sufficedLast edited by kingcat; 09-22-2012 at 03:07 PM.
