kudos to 420grover for the wallpaper
Back in Louisville and it simply doesnt get much better. The last 48 hours have been crazy, but wonderful and are exactly why being a fan of a college sports program like Kentucky is so great. For me personally, the past 48 hours have seen my bar exam results, Basketball Media Day, Midnight Madness, White Castle Challenge….and oh yeah, only the best Kentucky football win of my lifetime. It simply doesnt get any better. Rarely do weekends live up to the hype….this one exceeded it.
Know what else is amazing? Next week might even be better. ESPN College Gameday is coming to town, an event I thought I would never see in my lifetime and will create a scene unlike any other in the program’s history. But that is next week. For now, bask in the glory of realizing that your football team….the one that you have followed for your entire life as it struggled, lost game after game in painful, agonizing ways and nearly always broke your heart….has just won a game of our lifetime. I thought it couldnt get better than a few weeks ago when “Stevie Got Loose” against the Cards….well he got loose again against the Tigers…..and this one is even better.

I’m still drunk… actually, still getting more drunk. UK rules!
Any word on the bb recruits who saw this amazing feat? Are they ready to sign on the dotted line?
October 14th, 2007 at 2:48 am
2nd.
This win means a chance at a better bowl, better recruits, bragging rights,
and so many positives. Basketball recruits were there too.
October 14th, 2007 at 2:53 am
Congratulations on passing, counselor. I got my own good news letter this morning from the Bar Association as well. Greatest day of my life.
October 14th, 2007 at 2:53 am
anyone know what that thing that stevie johnson does after he scores means? the thing with his hands?
October 14th, 2007 at 2:53 am
Recruiting has to be the result of this new found UK Football Glory.
EJ Fields is a great start. Now UK needs to lock up Dexter Heyman.
This weekend isn’t over yet. I was just going to watch the horses run
tomorrow then fly out Monday morning but with all the luck that I am having
in Lexington, my wife and I are going to thrown down a grand or two tomorrow.
Things are going to well to stop now.
Looks like I will be flying back next weekend to go to the UF game and boo Corso.
I hope UK wins, I just hope the next weekend isn’t as crazy as this weekend. I can’t
handle another weekend like this, it would kill me. Oh Screw it, lets do it all over
again next weekend, why not?
GO BIG BLUE
October 14th, 2007 at 2:59 am
WHAT IF, TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What if Singleton committs next week, along with John Wall?
Then what if some top football recruits committ?
Then what if Terrence Jennings gets arrested for doing crack with Bud Mackey?
What if Tipton on, lets say Wed, gets fired from LHL
What if then on Thursday the SEC sits Tyson Jackson out for a few games?
Then what if UK beats UF?
I would be the best 10 days ever
IT will be the greatest 10 days of my life.
October 14th, 2007 at 3:28 am
Amen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a week what a week. Kentucky beat the #1 team….
In football.
Holy @#!%!!!!!!! Go big blue! bring on the gators!
October 14th, 2007 at 4:24 am
joker needs to be the new head coach,because that win was all because of his offsive calling….number 9 again sunday.
October 14th, 2007 at 4:38 am
my dick is as big as this upset wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
October 14th, 2007 at 5:07 am
It has been a perfect sports weekend. We had BBM with a bunch of quality recruits present. We won the biggest game perhaps in the history of UK football today. We immediately received a verbal from a key instate recruit afterward. And to top it all off, my NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon won for the second straight weekend in a row! And that doesn’t even include Keeneland or this gorgeous weather we are having. The sun definately shined bright on our old Kentucky home this weekend!
October 14th, 2007 at 5:10 am
Rich Brooks for president.
October 14th, 2007 at 5:47 am
why brooks get all the love? All i do is help put 43 points on the board againist the number 1 team…
October 14th, 2007 at 5:49 am
were going to be #10
October 14th, 2007 at 7:02 am
I wonder why the win LSU had over UK a few years back is called the “Bluegrass Miracle?” Wouldn’t that imply UK did something amazing. This is THE Bluegrass Miracle. The other is something I want to file in the place where I have Laettner’s miracle shot in 1992.
GO CATS!!!!!!

Biography: E.J. Fields
Despite his high school not having a track, Fields was the Class A 400 Meter Champion as a sophomore and is arguably the fastest player in the state of Kentucky.
Junior Year (2006): In 12 games, Fields ran for 1147 and 14 touchdowns
Coach Comments: “Obviously his speed is his best asset, but he is also a physical guy and most people don’t think that he is. He will not hesitate while on defense from coming up and laying a hit on you and he doesn’t shy away from contact when running the ball.” - Frankfort head coach Craig Foley
Fields runs a 10.7 100-yard dash, 48.7 400, and 20.7 200.
October 14th, 2007 at 7:55 am
This senior class in football is the equal to the basketball Unforgettables! They are special.
October 14th, 2007 at 7:58 am
Can you imagine the recruiting weekend that all UK sports had? Midnight madness, beautiful ladies at keeneland and maybe the greatest football game in our history! This weekend helps all UK sports.
October 14th, 2007 at 8:39 am
Matt, congrats on the bar! I will be 40 in 3 mths and I can’t remember a time when we(UofK) were the sweethearts of the entire country! Although a lot of pride comes from being so “hated” over the generations, its nice being Cinderella for now. Its the BeachBoys “Good Vibrations” all week………maybe all year?
October 14th, 2007 at 8:40 am
Econ Prof, if you read this, tell your father thanks! Divine intervention is most definitely playing a role this season. I’m as giddy as a schoolboy!
October 14th, 2007 at 8:58 am
What a weekend. My beloved Cats beat LSU. My beloved USF Bulls destroy UFC (Rob, what an ignorant article that UCF could beat USF; care to eat crow?) and are on there way to a #1 ranking. Awesome to be me this year. (ok, i don’t expect USF to go undefeated, but right now it is all sooo good!).
October 14th, 2007 at 9:22 am
Go Cats…what a weekend!…Does anyone have any idea when the game might be
rebroadcast on ESPN Classic, etc?
October 14th, 2007 at 9:22 am
i agree with 16!!!
October 14th, 2007 at 9:37 am
I think the crowd did great last night… I was proud of the older folks that usually sit on their tails the whole game. Go CATS!!! Lets win em all baby!
October 14th, 2007 at 9:47 am
lones seiber performance last night was HUGE!!
October 14th, 2007 at 10:10 am
Sports reporters giving huge props, too. This is great.
October 14th, 2007 at 10:18 am
That was a helluva win guys unreal! Now I am not sure what else
the basketball recruits want but I am 100% sure they will not
get anything close to this anywhere else. What a freakin weekend
wow!! Go Cats!!! I would expect at least 1 to 2 committs after
this weekend. On the football side this is going to start a pipeline
of recruits very nice. Powerhouse in Basketball and Football??:)
October 14th, 2007 at 10:19 am
Wow! Just wow! I love this team. Lost the turnover battle. Didn’t have our starting RB, stong side LB, FS and we still won. WOW!
October 14th, 2007 at 10:43 am
Foxsports has declared UK as stepping up to elite status. I don’t know about that, but I sure am enjoyng the glow of this win. Let’s see how the season unfolds before we declare our greatness. We have a very tough game next week and I hope they start working on Florida tomorrow. I am glad the Cards won and helped out strength of schedule. It was a good day througout the state.
October 14th, 2007 at 10:48 am
6. I don’t know. It is probably something like what Bradley’s diamond season is. But you can get a good looks at it…on the front page of ESPN.com
October 14th, 2007 at 10:48 am
Season? LOL. *sign
October 14th, 2007 at 10:53 am
LSU # 5……. USF #1…….. PER ESPN
October 14th, 2007 at 11:12 am
If Kentucky would have beat South Carolina last week they would have went into the LSU game as the #5 team in the country (moving up from #8 the previous week because #5 Wisconsin, #1 USC, and #7 Florida all lost that week) and after beating #1 LSU they would have then likely gone ahead of LSU b/c they beat them, ahead of #2 Cal b/c they lost, ahead of #3 Ohio St. and #4 BC b/c Kentucky beat the #1 team. So if Kentucky would have beat SC they likely would be ranked number one right now but top ten is still great.
October 14th, 2007 at 11:20 am
The greatest UK football wins in my sports lifetime … #3, Penn St in 1977, #2, beating #1 Ole MS in 1964, and my new #1, LSU in 2007! Go Cats!
October 14th, 2007 at 11:21 am
34. Yeah, but would have beaten LSU if we had beaten USC? You can never tell. Hindsight is best avoided.
Has everyone else noticed how much publicity UK is getting right now? First, we have front page articles Friday for BBM, and now we have front page articles for beating LSU.
October 14th, 2007 at 11:22 am
New Ap Poll, We’re ranked higher than USC,Get the **** outta here!!!!

October 14th, 2007 at 11:33 am
Quote of the night from Dicky Lyons Jr. post-game: “If I died right now I’d be happy for the rest of my life.” LOL — he said this to Dick Gabriel on post game interview.
October 14th, 2007 at 11:38 am
#6 - My first thought was that Stevie Johnson’s gesture was something related to the “Birdman” gesture, from the rapper Baby. Here’s a pic - http://www.mtv.com/shared/media/news/images/b/Baby/sq-baby-oh-yeah-uni .jpg
Not sure how that ties into Stevie, though, haha.
October 14th, 2007 at 11:46 am
Congrats on the big win Cats. Hope you help us Vols out again by beating UF. See you after Turkey Day.
October 14th, 2007 at 11:53 am
any news on the basketball recruits??? Marc you out there?
October 14th, 2007 at 11:55 am
Legend of the “Lou Holtz curse” gets even stronger…..Go Cats!!
October 14th, 2007 at 11:58 am
Monroe commits to G-Town per cbs sports, and oh yeah.. LETS GO GATOR HUNTIN!!!
October 14th, 2007 at 12:00 pm
ALSO, its crazy to see UK on the front page of all the college football and college basketball pages! Its a new era. Shake the world.
October 14th, 2007 at 12:02 pm
The name comes from the team that wins.
I begged the entire first half for Locke to play. Dixon and the gang were very timid going into the line, and we needed someone that would take on those big boys full speed. Locke is that guy.
The kid has got IT and is gonna be a superstar! Write it down, Locke will win the Heisman before he graduates, so long as he can stay healthy! The kid is a stud!

Lets stop calling this the “miracle” in the bluegrass! Coach Brooks had this team prepared, and combined that preparation with what I can only assume were flawless adjustments at halftime (how else could we beat them 13-3 in the 2nd half?). Congrat Coach Brooks and to the team…you deserve that pride you are feeling right now!! GO CATS, NOW IN THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIOP PICTURE!!
October 14th, 2007 at 12:28 pm
cbssportsline has a good 7 minute vid praising the cats

Last night was Unreal, it still hasn’t sunk in yet. In the 11 years of having season tickets, that was the most exciting game I’ve ever seen. GO CATS!!!!!
No. 6 I think it’s a “W” for Wildcats, but I could be wrong.
October 14th, 2007 at 12:51 pm
WOODSON is a HERO
OL proved me WRONG
DEFENSE has HEART
LOCKE is the FUTURE
STEVE FREAKIN JOHNSON IS THE MAIN MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 14th, 2007 at 12:51 pm
I live in the middle of Pac-10 country and have to deal with Cal and USC fans on a regular basis. This is the best football weekend of my 37 years! I remember tearing up three times in sports. 1. Satan Laettner’s shot. 2. 1996 3. yesterday.
I LOVE Locke! He is our secret weapon. We will need him next weekend, Big Time. You have to match speed with speed. Go Cats!
Thank God this happened on a recruiting weekend. Who wouldn’t want to be a Cat after yesterday.
October 14th, 2007 at 1:03 pm
now we are going to get everything from the gators,they are despert for a win..
October 14th, 2007 at 1:12 pm
Thanks for using my wallpaper Matt. For anyone who wants a widescreen version there is one posted on that “other” website.
October 14th, 2007 at 1:34 pm
Let’s also not skim over the fact that Kentucky scored FORTY-THREE points on one of the best defenses in the country!
October 14th, 2007 at 1:46 pm
Stevie Johnson on the “sluggo” play working this time - “It was lovely.” My thought exactly.
October 14th, 2007 at 2:23 pm
52–that article at msn.foxsports was AWESOME!!
October 14th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
JacobAB/6) The hand signals that Johnson is doing is a fraternity sign– I think its for the Q dogs (or something like that)– I think the hands are like dog’s ears. I could be way off base, but there were several b-ball players back in the mid-90s that did that & would often “bark” too.
October 14th, 2007 at 3:31 pm
[...] LSWho. I kept waiting for them to implode like they usually do, but it never happened. It’s a great win for UK’s program. Les Miles goes from hero to zero in a single [...]
October 14th, 2007 at 4:11 pm
Everyone go vote for the ESPN U poll where we vote. So lets all go vote UK #1 in that as they should be
October 16th, 2007 at 7:11 pm
actually the sign stevie does is for the sigmas… it represents the dove… the ques throw the hooks, like jd craigman, woodyard and burton do..
