I feel privileged to have been in Sanford Stadium to witness Kentucky’s epic fourth quarter drive that allowed them to go 6-1.
I’ll never see its like again. If I’m lucky…
****************************************************************
UPDATE: Guys, I think some of y’all are missing the forest for the trees here, at least a little bit. Of course there’s nothing wrong with Stoops chasing points. But the idea of being down 23 points in the fourth quarter and choosing to embark on an 11-minute drive to close out a game… I dunno, but isn’t a coach, especially one who’s got an undefeated team that’s ranked eleventh in the country, also supposed to be trying to win the game?

Fuck Mark Stoops.

Mark Stoops and his football team came into the game with a primary DNA trait of “never quit”… they were going to work their tails off for the full 60 and try to score every point they could. It doesn’t matter if those points don’t help them win the game. If they get down there and just let the clock die while they have a Timeout in their pocket, then they aren’t being who they are.
They have 5 more games. At some point, they may need a long scoring drive to win a game, and they will be able to look back and remember that they drove the ball for 11 minutes against the best defense in the country, and paid it off with a touchdown. The coaches will be able to look at plays they used that allowed that drive to continue and to score, and they will use them again.
Did it piss me off that the Dawgs gave up 13? Yep. But… the Dawgs gave up 13. If they didn’t wanna give up 13, they shoulda made the stop.
Still… they went out there and blocked the PAT, showing that to them it wasn’t over, either. Play to a standard. That’s what they do… even when they have let downs along the way.
Go Dawgs. 7-0. Fuck Florida.

However, that final drive had a heinous motivation. It was about the point spread, nothing more. All the delusional Big Blue boosters were about to lose their ass on a conceited and ill thought out bet. I’m not a believer in conspiracy plots; but, I recognize malfeasance when I see it. Stoops’ connection with Crimetown, USA simply can’t be ignored. It ain’t a coincidence that Stoops risked the health of his players and the success of the remainder of the season on a futile scoring drive.

I’m with you. If I were a Kentucky player I’d have a hard time if Stoops decided to let the clock run out when we had an opportunity to score. It doesn’t matter if you’re down by 100, you fight until the clock hits zero.
As for the idea of protecting the spread, why wouldn’t he line up and kick a field goal? It’s typically the higher percentage though yesterday’s attempts would state otherwise. (For the record, no one will ever be able to convince me that the second half officiating of the 2017-2018 National Championship by big10 officials wasn’t heavily influenced by Midwest Remo Gaggi types to just keep Alabama in the game for a puncher’s chance.)

Here’s Kirby’s take:
On the 22 play TD drive by Kentucky…
“I was talking to Dan during the drive, we’re eating clock, we’re fine, be patient. It wasn’t like it was strategy. They were doing a good job. They were keeping us off balance, they were nickeling and dime-ing us. It’s different when you have four downs. I don’t know how many times they used four downs, but you have to play third down differently because in reality its second down and fourth down becomes third down. We didn’t get them to fourth down maybe once, and it was real short, but I love the way our guys played. They take so much pride. They started a saying on the defense, not in our end zone. They fought tooth ad nail, but give Kentucky credit. They got in there twice.”
On Stoops calling timeout…
“I had a problem with our players. A player runs on the field undisciplined; we blocked in the back on the return there. We could have returned that kick for two points and that would have been great for the defense if we had scored, because we take pride in it. My problem was our reaction to the moment and not keeping a good level head on our shoulders. Mark’s got a job to do, he’s trying to compete and score. Why not? That’s what he came here to do, to win the game and score points. I respect that.”
Is he wrong?
