Can LF7 run all over them? Can true SEC smash mouth football win this?

I think they give up something around 190 rushing yards per game

Not good enough, IMO.

We should be able to run and take up most of the TOP. I can't imagine the team falling flat after the W in Gainesville, and knowing they need the win at home on Saturday night to keep the momentum up.

We will need to score points because their offense is actually pretty good this year.

Yes LF7 will have success. Kentucky does scare me a bit though. They are vastly improved and will be amped for this game. I do not want to see LSU come out flat and spot them early points.

If we pound, pound, pound the ball (as CLM usually does) we will win. Just look at the S.C. game, at first they were ramming it down UK's throat, then for some reason went to a passing game and wound up losing.

That will not happen to us!!!!

He'll do okay but he won't "run all over them."

I think it can, but the O Line has to come to work this game. Kentucky will not have to worry about the pass unless a calm and settled Harris is in the game. That means they will load up the box to stop the run. Will be an interesting game, and nowhere near an easy win that some might think.

They want us to pass. Expect 8 men in the box every down.

After six games, Kentucky ranks:
62 - Rushing Defense
20 - Passing Defense
32 - Total Defense
15 - Scoring Defense

After three SEC games [UF (L), VU (W), USC (W)], Kentucky's defense has given up:
191 (Y/GM) - Rushing
199 (Y/GM) - Passing

They have given up some rushing yards but I can guarantee that Stoops is going to put 8 in the box.
