Drink clarifies what happened on the go-ahead touchdown for LSU. He said he misspoke. It wasn't on Daylan Carnell. He said it was a miscommunication on the back line and that LSU made a play in a busted situation.
He's happy about the atmosphere from what happened on Saturday.
Proud of the effort the team displayed and said the team just came up short. He mentioned that the team didn't play complementary football. The second and third quarters were the biggest problem as far offense, defense and special teams not playing together and complementary.
Kentucky is good in all three phases of the ball and he believes RB Ray Davis is on of the best RBs in the league. Thinks their O-line is what makes the offense go.
Kentucky is a multiple defense that is good at simulating pressures and coverages.
Says team is disappointed in the loss but not devastated (which is good).
Drink coached Devin Leary for a year at NCST. He calls him talented with an elite arm and great pocket toughness and command.
Said Ray Davis has good vision and may be faster than he was last season. He's also running behind a better O-line.
They've got to be gap-disciplined when rushing the passer. He said that was evident during the LSU game.
The team has been made more than aware to limit penalties. Mizzou is 111th in penalties per game at 7.5.
The team also has to be better in turnover margin and limit explosive plays while also making their own explosive plays.
The two missed FGs and 17-yard punt is exactly what Drink was talking about when he said complementary football. There's fundamental issues on those plays.
Calls UK a difficult environment to play in along with talented football team. Said UK doesn't beat themselves.
Jokes and says they don't have to play the officials. But says its going to be a good game.
Says there isn't a quick fix for the safety plays. He said it starts with coaches and the meetings then goes to practice. He said the coaches look at themselves first. He says they're winning in spite of some of the coaching that isn't going well.
Brady Cook is going to make mistakes. The turnovers were the issues but complementary football is about the defense getting takeaways back for him. He really isn't putting to much blame on Cook for those TOs. There are things to fix but it's not like Cook will never turn the ball over. It happens.
Ennis Rakestraw has been battling a groin injury. That's what held him out of Memphis and it has flared up on the other side. He will be OUT this week.
He thought D-Rob played his most dominant game because he got a chance to sit out vs. Vandy.
Cody Schrader is one of the toughest young men he's coached. He will be QUESTIONABLE at best this week.
Mekhi MIller is also QUESTIONABLE but it's trending in right direction.
