Kentucky Wildcats @ Georgia Bulldogs -- Open Game Thread

Btn_football_medium Btn_chat_medium

This is the official A Sea of Blue Open Game Thread for the Kentucky Wildcats @ Georgia Bulldogs.  Game particulars are as follows, courtesy of UKAthletics.com:

Date & Time Saturday, Nov. 21 7:45 p.m
Coverage TV: ESPN2 Radio: BBSN
Live Stats
Online Audio listen
Online Video via ESPN360
Location Sanford Stadium Athens, Ga.

This game represents a chance for Kentucky to do something it has not done in along while -- win three road games in the SEC.  Also, unlike last season, seven wins in the regular season would certainly be much more impressive than six, and even if three wins in the SEC East isn't exactly impressive, it is better than two.  Plus, beating a national power like Georgia, even in a down year, would be a terrific notch on Kentucky's belt.

But all that is much easier said than done.

This is a team that is shooting the ball ridiculously well from three with the exception of the last game versus the Virginia Cavaliers.  Virginia handled them easily, and you would think Kentucky could, too.  But this is just the type of team that has given UK fits this season.

This is the official A Sea of Blue Open Game Thread for the Sam Houston St. Bearkats @ Kentucky Wildcats in this first round game of the Cancun Challenge tournament.

Kentucky @ Vanderbilt: Pre-game and Open Game Thread

We need a little Cobb today.

by Ed Reinke - AP

We need a little Cobb today.

This is the official A Sea of Blue Open Game Thread for the Kentucky Wildcats @ Vanderbilt Commodores football game.  This thread will also serve as the pre-game, since neither Ken nor I have had the chance to do a separate one.

Game particulars are as follows, courtesy of UKAthletics.com:

Date & Time Saturday, Nov. 14 12:21 p.m
Coverage
TV: SEC Network * Radio: BBSN
GameTracker GameTracker
Online Audio listen
Online Video via ESPN360
Location Vanderbilt Stadium Nashville, Tenn.
Gameday Information

It goes without saying that any game where bowl eligibility is on the line is a big game for Kentucky, and this is such a game.  Without the unfortunate home loss to Mississippi St., Kentucky would be looking at this game being the icing on an improved season over last year.  Now, this is a pivotal contest upon which the football Wildcats' post-season hopes could easily be riding.

If UK fails to win this game, it's bowl hopes will ride on defeating either Georgia in Athens or a rising Tennessee squad in Commonwealth Stadium.  Both those games present significantly more obstacles to success than Vanderbilt does.  Bottom line -- win this game, Wildcats, or the odds are your post-season hopes go up in a cloud of gold and black smoke.

First of all, a quick note:  I will be at Churchill Downs today enjoying the Breeder's Cup simulcast.  I expect to be able to watch some of the game, and comment from time to time via the iPhone, but the post-game comment may be late (it depends upon whether or not Ken has time to put up post-game commentary).

Kentucky @ Auburn: Open Game Thread

We can't let this guy, Ben Tate, get loose today.

We can't let this guy, Ben Tate, get loose today.

This is the official A Sea of Blue Open Game Thread for the Kentucky at Auburn game.  Particulars are as follows:

Location
Jordan-Hare Stadium Auburn, Ala.
Gameday Information

This game is exceptional because of the fact that UK will have a new starter at quarterback, be it Morgan Newton or Will Fidler.  That is enough to get all of us excited to see what Brooks can do under the duress of having his starting quarterback down, something that has rarely happened under his tenure.
