Lipscomb Head Coach Lennie Acuff says he had never met Mark Pope until tonight, but had great things to say about him and Kentucky:
“I can tell you that I am tremendously impressed… That’s the best offensive power-four team we’ve played in my six years at Lipscomb.”
“I know what basketball means in the state of Kentucky and you’re going to have a team that’s fun to cheer for I’ll tell you that.”
Vanderbilt DB CJ Taylor on Kentucky WR Dane Key:
“I don’t know if we can stop him when he is confident , he’s a monster. I mean last year he walked into our locker room went straight up to me and said “Lace em up tight, you’re in for a long one tonight. Welcome to the fucking show.” And then he proceeded to head tap our CB. “I was in shambles.” Taylor added.
Key has 250 yards in his last 2 games.
