Just as Pink Panther said, I expect a better season as well.
Look at the SEC:
Auburn without Cam Newton or Fairley, etc...
Alabama without the Heisman winner etc...
Florida without Urban Meyer and etc....
Arkansas without Mallett, etc...
Tennessee will be better
South Carolina loses the starting QB and the main reciever, right?
Miss. State loses the QB, etc...

The list goes on and on. If Cobb comes back, UK might be able to get back to a bowl game. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and this season's record could be the same as next season, but I will not have the expectations for next seasons unit, as I did for this one.

With that said, If UK has the same record next season, as it did this season, I will consider it an accomplishment.

Those teams might lose a lot but they recruit better than Kentucky and most of them will just reload. Gotta keep in mind UK is losing a lot, Cobb is almost for sure gone. I just can't see this team becoming bowl eligible next year.
