Sam break your leg already!
Kentucky came into the contest at 4-5 and needing a win to try to get to bowl elibility. Mission accomplished.
Kentucky became a ruthless, souless team. 48 points scored and not taking a kneel down on the final play to deliberately run up the score. Afterwards, Kentucky's head coach, Johnny Brooks, did not even bother to shake hands with Tennessee's head coach or walk out to the 50 yard line.
During the game, Tennessee's Sam Riley did not help matters by fumbling 4 times and losing the fumble 2 times. If any Vol fans want to throw darts, get a picture of Riley and fire away.
"I feel like throwing up after this game. Kentucky has a bunch of classless people that need to learn what the word class means. I guess, however, they can't stand the thought that we have beaten the wildkittens the past two times with a worse talent than they have ever had, and by far the worst Tennessee teams in years. 8-2 in the worst decade of Volunteer football ever is not something to brag about. They should be sad at the thought they lost two times to this scrappy bunch of players. They want a rivalry, they have one." Vowed an angry Coach Batten
