The novelty of the passing game has worn off, certainly. The biggest problems for Kentucky defense. It hasn't been able to stop anyone in the four years Mumme has been there. I don't think Mumme is on thin ice at this point, but I don't expect Kentucky to ever break more than six or seven wins without some better recruiting. A player who is in his second year of college, but sat out the first season.
Students have four years of playing eligibility to use within a five-year period.
Often, schools will let freshman absorb the system and get bigger and stronger for one season before playing them in their second year. It looks as though they've found their QB of the future. Clausen played solid, but not spectacularly. I m not ready to make a judgment on whether he is going to be the answer. Tennessee is definitely set up for a better season next year.
