......but UK was 5-1 when they played and beat LSU and I think they had cracked the top 25 then also.

What does it matter what they ended up?

It hurts their strength of schedule a bit but evidently that didnt keep them out of the title game.

UK was ranked and playing well when they knocked off the #1 team.

Little went down after that, so did the #2 RB also and WR Keenan Burton and their starting DE or was it a DT did as well.

We all know what injuries and suspensions can do to a team (ie: Stripling, Spillman, Urrutia, O-Line, Peanut, Allen, Bolen, Douglass, Willia WIlliams).
