Kentucky’s Randall Cobb, just a few days after putting the Twitter/fan controversy to rest, said he expects a good crowd for this weekend’s Georgia game.”I think they’ll be pretty rowdy,” Cobb said. “We can’t wait to get out there and play for them.”With a win, the Wildcats’ preseason goals of making it to a better bowl game and contending for the Southeastern Conference East title both come into sharper focus.”We can’t keep winning seven or six games,” senior defensive tackle Ricky Lumpkin said.  “We have to take that next step and get to nine or 10 wins. Our recruiting will get better with the more games we win. You’ll see a jump in recruiting and all of a sudden, everything gets better. “It happened with Boise State. The next thing you know, they’re not preseason unranked — they’re top 10. They’re beating the teams they’re supposed beat and when they get the opportunity (against big-name opponents), they’re winning those games. We get that opportunity week in and week out (in the SEC). Now, we’ve just got to win those games.”= = =Junior linebacker Danny Trevathan leads the SEC in tackles and is looking for his fourth consecutive double-figure tackle game. He said former UK linebacker Micah Johnson always set the benchmark for his position at 100 tackles and that’s what Trevathan is shooting for (he’s at 70 through seven games), but he also tries to avoid looking at the stat sheet.”I think it impacts me when I think about stuff like that so I try not to think about that,” Trevathan said. Another former standout in UK’s linebacker corps, Braxton Kelley, attended last week’s game and Trevathan said his former teammate gave him a motivational boost with a short pregame visit.= = =Mike Hartline’s emergence as one of the top quarterbacks in the SEC is getting noticed. Read what ESPN.com’s SEC blogger, Chris Low, had to say in a recent interview with tomleachky.com:”The thing I like the best is that he has kept his head down, played within himself and been a leader,” Low said. “I think a lot of times he leads by example. Mike isn’t a real flashy guy; never has been and maybe that is part of the reason why he fell out of favor with the fans. As Joker has said, he has never made a whole lot of plays. He was just kind of a guy who ran the offense. That has sort of changed now. Not only is he more confident, but everyone around him is confident with him.”Hartline comes off a career-high 349 passing yards and four touchdowns in the upset of 10th-ranked South Carolina.= = =Kentucky now has its first win over Steve Spurrier. It was a sweet achievement for UK fans who despise the Ol’ Ball Coach, but head coach Joker Phillips said he really likes Spurrier.”I got a chance to spend some time with coach Spurrier in Destin, Florida, and I really like the guy,” Phillips said. “How can you not like a guy who speaks his mind? When people speak their mind, it’s telling you the truth so you never have to wonder what they’re thinking.”= = =The start of a new basketball season inches closer next week with the annual Blue-White game on Tuesday night at Rupp Arena.Coach John Calipari said he won’t expand his rotation just to get more depth. If it means playing just six players, he’ll be fine with that. In one of our postgame interviews during the exhibition games in Canada, Calipari laid down a challenge to his veterans.”Some of the returning players, if they’re not more competitive, they’re not going to get minutes,” Calipari said. “We can play seven guys if we need to.” = = =Kentucky was picked second in the SEC East this week by the media members at the league’s annual preseason publicity bash. And ESPN’s Jimmy Dykes would not be surprised if the Cats slip even further if Enes Kanter fails to gain his eligibility.”If Enes Kanter plays, Kentucky is probably the best team in the SEC East,” Dykes said. “If he doesn’t play, I could see them finishing as low as fifth. He’s that much of a difference. He just makes Kentucky a complete team. So many other players are better when a guy like Kanter is on the floor with them. He’s going to be an automatic double-double guy and that’ s a constant that you really like to have.”
