Kevin Stallings Game Quotations

Obviously we've got yet another game where we're catching a team at a tough time coming off a tough loss and it seems like we've made a habit of that so far in the league season. Florida is always one of the most difficult places to play in the league. ... It will be a difficult task.

I don't get too worked up, but coaching in an SEC game and watching your son play in a big game are pretty comparable (on the nerves). But I want him to do well, that's for sure.

Last year we were a game or two away. This year we're a game or two away.

Every game is a game unto itself. Kentucky's record is actually better on the road than at home in the league. We know it is going to be a difficult game. It was a difficult game last time. Both teams fought hard and played good defense and had trouble scoring. We were fortunate a couple things did go our way at the end, but I doubt if that will matter Saturday.

We did a good job of getting back in the game in the second half, but we ran out of gas. You have to play really well on the road to win in this league. We didn't and they did.

As I told them right after the game last night, we won our first two conference games last year, then we proceeded to lose four of six. Our response to that game is more important than the game itself.

In some ways this game felt the game at our place only in reverse. We kind of had the game won a couple different times in Nashville and somehow found a way to not to finish the job. It seemed like they had this one a couple times.

Georgia is probably the most improved team in the league. Dennis (Felton) has done a nice job of bringing the program along. It will be a difficult challenge to get a game back on the road.

I told the guys after the game that I was happiest that they weren't surprised. I could feel a very high level of confidence in that room. It's OK if they're surprised about the big win, but I'm happy they're not.

It was a tale of two halves. We had a chance in the first half to grab control of the game and we didn't finish.

It was a tale of two halves. We had a chance to grab control of the game and we didn't finish the first half well. We kind of let them off the hook a little bit. They came out and dominated the second half. They overpowered us inside.
