Kentucky hosts Tennessee this weekend so we welcomed in Evan Pierce, co-host of The Vol Bros, to preview the game. Tennessee is even more potent offensively than ever. Not good news for us, but could they be without one of their pillars on defense? The Vols defense has been pretty generous all season long. Will that be enough to help Kentucky's sputtering offense? Something has to give, right? Hope y'all enjoy this episode! Go Cats! Follow, like, subscribe! To promote your product of business on the show click here.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Kentucky had Texas and let 'em off the hook. Why in the world did the Cats continue to try to challenge Texas up the gut on the goal line? That clearly wasn't working. Maybe nothing would have worked, but at least try something else anyway. Special teams breakdowns were killers. Up next, Tennessee. Go Cats! Follow, subscribe, comment!

Critical, critical, critical. This game is critical for Kentucky. They need to regain control of the South Carolina series and get last year's taste out of their mouths. South Carolina feels the same way especially since they're riding a two-game losing streak and have a monster second half schedule. Rixon Lane of Bleav In South Carolina stopped by to give us some insights on the Gamecocks and the reason why they have been on the struggle bus. Rate, review, subscribe!
