Bleav in Kentucky

Kentucky would have to lose four in a row to finish 7-5. They have blown all of the preseason expectations out of the water. Will Stein has been a head coach for eight games and has put things into place amazingly.

The fellas had also been teasing a giveaway and they let you know what they're up to in this episode.

Kentucky wrapped up the exhibition season with a win over UCF in overtime. Up next, the Manhattan Jaspers out of the MAAC.

Kentucky has beaten all of these teams that they aren't "supposed" to be beating. They finally get Vandy, a team they are supposed to beat and they beat 'em like they were supposed to beat 'em. They roll into the bye week 7-1 and atop the SEC. Time to rest, refine and get ready for Tennessee on Nov. 7.

Our friend Taylor Davis is going to be in Lexington this weekend to work the Kentucky-Vandy game. She took some time to join Vinny and Cole to talk about being a Will Stein supporter early on. What he's doing as a first-year head coach is unbelievable!

We talked about her Auburn Tigers and how her and Jason Campbell remain objective now that they host SEC State of Mind which covers the entire conference, not just Auburn.

Vinny also had a bone to pick with Taylor, but it was all love.

Kentucky jumped on the Oklahoma defense early and then got smothered until the fourth quarter. The defense kept them in striking distance and then they struck with a TD off of a turnover and then capped it with a pick six to ice the win over Oklahoma. 6-1 baby!!!

Historic quarters and come from behind wins. Bold two-point conversions for the win(s)! Cole's strategy for getting to the media room after the LSU game and much more. Replays going Kentucky's way. Forgetting name and affliation and more!

Unreal. Deja Blue for real!

Joe Sloan gets the last laugh. How resilient is this team? Brock Coffman's punt return house call was huge! The replay review office in Birmingham got all of the reviewable replays correct. Kentucky manages the middle eight great.

Had chances to knock them out sooner. How fun is this!?! Thanks for listening and watching!

How often have we been on the wrong side of these kinds of games? We know that feeling of having our hearts ripped out way too often. Kentucky got down 17-0 to South Carolina. That just set the stage for a historic comeback and it couldn't have happened against a better opposing head coach. Cats did Beamer dirty.

Scott Hamilton covers South Carolina for 107.5 The Game in Columbia. But he has deep Kentucky ties. We get into all of that on this episode. We also get into some food conversation and restaurants in Lexington.

Will the Gamecocks rally or will they fold? Shane Beamer is on the thinnest of ice. How will they respond? The Cats need to strike early.

Vinny and Scott have a mutual friend, Terry Hanson, who they gave love to for all of his amazing media contributions. His impact is truly unbelievable. Y'all will enjoy this one!

Corey Price's contributions to BBN are both unique and very much appreciated. We talk about his radio appearances and trivia segments and how they have grown over the years. We also talk about his experiences in the press box with Tom Leach and Jeff Piecoro.

After Kentucky lost to Texas A&M in basketball last March Corey's customary post game tweets were nowhere to be found. Vinny had an idea as to why they were missing and just had to ask Corey about it for confirmation.

Y'all remember how frustrated Rixon Lane was the last time he was on the podcast? That was last year and South Carolina thrashed the Cats in Columbia. It's hard to believe but the frustration level is even higher now. Could Kentucky end the Shane Beamer era?

Rixon listed ranked all of the Gamecocks ills, discussed the latest with the Dylan Stewart situation. How did South Carolina put themselves in position to really contend in 2024 and waste all of the momentum since then?

We also talked about something we agree on, the Atlanta Braves. Plus Rixon's new book!

We look back at the win against Texas A&M. The dominant third quarter. The 28 unanswered points. The Jay Bateman homecoming. Refusing to eat the cheese. Beat South Alabama like they're supposed to. Hayden Thacker joined us to talk about all the cool things he's doing at Big Blue Saturday

No doubt y'all noticed that Cole hadn't been on the last couple of episodes. Well he's back for this one and we get into all the stuff he was doing these last few days - being on TV, hoopin, catching planes. That sort of thing.

Two SEC games. Two solid first halves. We saw it slip away last week at home against Alabama. How would Kentucky respond after going to the locker room all tied at 7-7? They came and out and ran off 21 straight points and controlled the game the rest of the way.

Huge dub! Signature win already for Will Stein! Let's Go!!

Things snowballed, the Cats ran out of gas. Alabama is Alabama. The fake punt wasn't a bad idea. Can the Cats put together 60 minutes worth of good stuff on the road down in College Station?

Is Kenny Minchey as "dual threaty" as we or the coaching staff had hoped?

Friend of the podcast and co-host of Tide Talk Live, Jake Thomas, joined us to share his knowledge of Alabama. The Tide defeated East Carolina 48-10. How will Keelon Russell fare in his first SEC road game? Can Kentucky take advantage as he attempts to settle in? Can the Cats new, competent, up-tempo offense catch Alabama's defense napping?

How does everyone feel about Ryan Coleman-Williams? We also talked about the upcoming Saban documentary. Plus a little Braves talk.

Will Stein's head coaching debut is almost here. Vinny and Cole give their season predictions for the 2026 Kentucky Wildcats. We know the depth isn't where they want it to be in some areas but how will the product on the field look? Will we be able to tell that the program is heading in the right direction.

Mark Mitchell, Alex Afari. Will we see them play for Kentucky? One moment it looks promising for them, the next, who knows? We talked about all of this 5 fof 5 stuff a couple of weeks ago. It's only gotten crazier since then. Whew!
