FB: Kentucky 20, Iowa 17

[@wadephipps5239]

Gutsy win by a ton of backup players. 33 wins for this senior class. Amazing.

[@teller1290]

I bet this game and didn't hear about the "ton of backups" til a short time ago! Lucky to escape with a push. Heard just after halftime Iowa coaches told team they were gonna "impose their will" on KY in 2d half. And they did. I was so pissed off I couldn't talk...thinking if it's that easy, why not just do that when you played Michigan and you would've win the conference instead of getting blown out of one end of the stadium. At least they have some kind of excuse for getting pushed around all over the field until last 3 min. TN and KY biggest disappointments of my bowls season: one-loss, one tie and thought both were easy against slow, one-dimensional opponent.

I’ve been waiting for this since the game ended

Lmao same here! Tom leach is the best at what he does

Yep

I keep watching it over and over this is what college football is all about pure smash mouth football one of the best game's you could ask for good BBN

[@thadiatorgaming]

What a game and what a finish! Hard fought especially with star players out. Proud of this team! GO BIG BLUE!!!

[@jeremysnow9034]

Stoops has a career here until he retires if he wants it!!! This is a great win!!!! What heart!!!!

[@emeraldenthusiast]

Four bowl wins in a row. What a magical time to be part of BBN.

[@teller1290]

Can't figure out why the let-up in 2d half that required such drama at end. Loss line of scrimmage 27 min of 2d half.

[@emeraldenthusiast]

@@teller1290 It looked like Iowa's lighter linemen handled the intense heat better than UK's bigger guys. UK was pushing them around in the first half, but there was some noticeable fatigue in the 2nd half.

[@teller1290]

@@emeraldenthusiast I heard they had a fair number of players out, as well. Naturally, I don't learn of it til weeks after the game. I laid three and at least didn't lose money in what should've been easy win.

[@emeraldenthusiast]

@@teller1290 They did have several key players out, especially on D.

[@giantslayer473]

6 bowl games in a row! What a job Stoops has done here, looking forward to next year's top 10 recruiting class

[@BBNTrashtalker]

Had to rewatch highlights from my favorite commentator

[@spinblackcircles]

Best game I’ve seen in person since 2014 South Carolina. Maybe the best ever, I was sure we were beat. Never stopped cheering though GO BIG BLUE

[@MrBleedsBlue]

i def thought it was over...... what a comeback #CardiacCats

[@Sinister_Six]

Finally. I was starting to wonder whether youd post it

[@Sinister_Six]

Alright guys... This team or the 2018 team. Who are you taking?

[@Jearbear-zs8lc]

This team has a much better offense for sure

[@Sinister_Six]

@@Jearbear-zs8lc for sure. But that 2018 defense was something special. Remember holding Mizzou to zero first downs in the second half

[@stephentichenor3024]

Completely healthy? This team.

[@thomasgordonjr.2208]

2018 played a tougher schedule and had better wins imo

[@greatkentuckian9032]

Healthy on both sides, it would be a tough fight. 2018 had the better defense while the 2021 team had the better offense. I would day the 2021 team, but they would take on a lot of sacks. Just like this game

[@Shortyd17]

Didn’t think people could come close to Lynn, Benny and Josh Allen as my favorite cats to ever dawn the uniform. But god damn. Will and Wandale have entered that tier. What a fun season.

[@chrismurphy4021]

There were plenty of legends before them as well

[@Shortyd17]

@@chrismurphy4021 yeah but I’m talking about my personal experience as a Kentucky fan.

[@KYBlueJedi]

Thanks for another Christmas present Cats!

[@TiltingT]

Way to go Cats! Great gritty win today!.. Already excited for next year just hope Wandale and a few more come back for one more year!

[@dougmanor1988]

I was wanting Levis to hurdle an Iowa player so bad........

[@chrismurphy4021]

Shoot not me! While it's exciting, that's a recipe for injury so scares me every time!

[@RS-tg2rm]

I was very upset when Wan'dale Robinson chose Nebraska over his upstart, instate Wildcats. Now, after just one season, he's leaving for the greener pastures of the NFL. I simply hate this guy and wish nothing but total failure on his part. He was never, ever a Wildcat and shouldn't be treated as such!

[@cyrus.7499]

He did alot for UK this season.
