The Cats have one more practice today in Lexington before heading to Nashville. Rich Brooks was very disappointed with the team's effort yesterday in practice. Bowl games always scare me as teams have so much time to prepare. This is a prime time game for UK on Sunday night, so the Cats must play well.
Based on ESPN's Bowl Mania Fantasy Game, 88% of the entries have picked Clemson to win the Music City Bowl. I'm sure most of America is picking because of C.J. Spiller. However, as one Clemson fan told me, "C.J. has to get ready for the NFL combine too". I like the Cats chances against Clemson. It will be a home game for UK and I still believe UK controls the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. UK has to avoid giving up the big play on defense.
UK received three football commitments over the weekend. The first coming from Brandon Dunn (Louisville, KY) who will play defensive tackle at UK. The second commitment came from Kenarious Gates (Greenville, GA) who is a three star offensive linemen. Gate's commitment is huge for the Cats as they missed out on Skyler Schofner earlier this season. The third commitment came from Darrian Miller for the 2011 class. Miller is a big time recruit who could have played at several SEC schools.
Who's left on the recruiting "big board" now? My guess is that UK still wants to sign another running back and one receiver. Potential running back recruits would be; DJ Howard, Rajaan Bennett, Miles Simpson and Joseph Byrd. Potential receivers would be; Dyjuan Lewis, Maudrecus Humphrey and Duncan McGriff.
