Pitt driving down the field at will. Did UK's defense get off the bus? I have money on UK.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Interception UK. Woohoo! Needed that.

[Mr Handicapable]

On Kentucky too....Newton doesn't look too bad early! I think their speed will be too much for Pitt! Pitt is a mess right now....kids de-committing, etc. Newton fumble they were really moving it well?

[PORKCHOP44]

mac4lyfe are you trust me @covers

[Mac4Lyfe]

Fuk - hold onto the dam ball Fig Newton.

[Dirty Bay Player]

I'm on UK +3 and under 26 1H parlayed. Damn fumble.

[Mac4Lyfe]

mac4lyfe are you trust me @covers

Nope, does he sound like me?

[PORKCHOP44]

lets goooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!! kentucky

[PORKCHOP44]

same avatar and is pretty good at college bball just wondering

[Mac4Lyfe]

UK's defense is better than this. They need to settle down.

[Mac4Lyfe]

FUMBLEeeeeeee.... Scoop and score dammitt.

[Dirty Bay Player]

Wow - sloppy game. This looks like a JV scrimmage.

[Mac4Lyfe]

This might be close. Looked like a forward pass there. Come on refs, give us an early break here.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Oh no, that's a backwards lateral. UK's ball. Wootie woot!!!

[Mr Handicapable]

Backwards pass I think if Kentucky gets a decent lead...Pitt will quit....crowd is all blue too!

[Mr Handicapable]

Bull$hit

[Mac4Lyfe]

Backwards pass I think if Kentucky gets a decent lead...Pitt will quit....crowd is all blue too!

Are you fuking kidding me? They call it a forward pass. That is horseshit.

I can't tell if there's a big crowd or not. Doesn't seem like it.

[Mac4Lyfe]

ACC refs... No wonder. Bitches have penis envy for the SEC. That was a huge reversal. How did they get enough evidence to reverse that? Bullshit.

Thankfully, Pitt didn't move the ball.

[Mr Handicapable]

Not a big crowd but its 90% blue....only people there for Pitt are family/friends! I don't see how they overturn calls on the field when its so borderline? Got screwed like that w/Missouri in their bowl game?

[falconticket]

Refs on Pitt. Im on Kentucky. Damn

[Mr Handicapable]

Get the rock to Cobb now...WR screen...reverse or something!!

[Mac4Lyfe]

4th and 1... What does UK do here? Newton is a big boy. Looks like CamShaft.

They're going.

[Mac4Lyfe]

First down on a finger biting play. Nice stiff arm there. Wow.

[Mr Handicapable]

Wow...thought they had him on 4th down

[Dirty Bay Player]

Sick stiffarm.

[Mr Handicapable]

What a kick...didn't think he had a chance

Kentucky isn't really getting stopped....stopping themselves!

[ukbro00]

How much did Mississippi State offer to pay this Newton?

[ukbro00]

And that was a pretty nice kick

[ukbsktbll]

Finally some points

[Mac4Lyfe]

UK 1st quarter... Cash money Keep it up

[Mr Handicapable]

These guys look like 2 teams that should be playing in the "Shouldn't really be here" bowl but as long as Kentucky wins by 1 then I'm happy! Unwatchable if you're not betting it!

[zoso11871]

This game is awful.

[Mac4Lyfe]

UK employing the bend don't break defense... Unfortunately, it's not on purpose.

[Dirty Bay Player]

Pitt kicker heck of a lot of celebration for a 23 yard field goal.
