For UK fans, the Citrus Bowl should be re-named the Irony Bowl. The last major Bowl UK got was the Outback Bowl against, guess who? Penn State. Tim Couch and UK came out hot and put up 14 but that lead shrank to a single point at the half. Penn State controlled the 2nd half while UK couldn't muster much on the offensive end.
I'm sure the Penn State people aren't all that excited to be facing upstart UK and we can hope their football team feels the same way. I wouldn't mind seeing a sleepy bunch of Nits on game day. That being said, UK better be focused and play hungry. Making a New Years Bowl game is terrific; getting embarrassed on New Years day would not be.
UK is also riding a decent wave in recruiting; partially due to the teams success this year and Louavulls implosion. A Bowl win keeps that momentum moving.....
Congrats to the Team on the accomplishment!

I'm optimistic that the mindset for this game is different than that in the past two bowl games. We were just glad to be there and have some extra practice time. This team has a chance to win 10 games, which is a historic season for this program, and that has to be a big motivator.
