Notes from Rich Brooks’ teleconference:
* UK is “coming off a tough loss to Mississippi State.” Derrick Locke hasn’t practiced this week and is doubtful for this weekend. Seven guys were out with the flu yesterday — not the swine flu — but three were back today.
* Kentucky has never won 18 consecutive non-conference games before… and they can do that on Saturday against Eastern Kentucky. UK has the second longest non-conference winning streak in the country behind LSU.
* Asked about MSU, Brooks said they are a more productive offensive team than they have been in recent years. He was impressed by State’s offensive line play.
* Asked about Chris Todd and stopping Auburn’s offense, Brooks said his defense played “sounder” than it has all year. Last week, against State, they gave up a lot of yards on some of the same plays that they stuffed against Auburn. UK didn’t allow Todd to complete any deep balls. The weather also helped defend the passing game on that night as well.
* That’s it. Very few questions for Brooks.
