Denard finally played a team that could play some defense and he struggled with 3 turnovers.

If it were Mike Hartline with these stats and 3 turnovers, UK fans would be calling for his head.

Those short passes cannot be put on Hartline. Heck, he hit Cobb between the numbers a few times in the past two games and Cobb drops them. But our play-calling is just so conservative on 3rd down that it makes Hartline out to be the bad guy. He's threaded the needle this season and has improved A LOT since last season and the year before. He's also one of the most efficient QB's in the SEC.

The man has deserved his starting position this season and rightfully so.

Totally agree 100% At the beginning of the year, I was saying put Newton in there. But as this season progresses. Hartline make me eat my words. And now I have become a Hartline backer.
