The weekly awards are already starting to roll in for the Cats this week as Chris Low of ESPN.com has given helmet stickers to Mike Hartline and Joker Phillips. I wonder when Joker wears his helmet?

[B]Kentucky quarterback [/B][URL=”http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=188612″][COLOR=#225db7][B]Mike Hartline[/B][/COLOR][/URL][B]:[/B] Making a strong bid as the SEC’s most improved player this season, Hartline was also long on courage Saturday night. He stood in there repeatedly against a fierce South Carolina rush and completed 32 of 42 passes for 349 yards, for four touchdowns and no interceptions. His 24-yard scoring pass to [URL=”http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=382886″][COLOR=#225db7]Randall Cobb[/COLOR][/URL] on a fourth-and-7 play was the game-winner for the Wildcats in their [URL=”http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/recap?gameId=302890096″][COLOR=#225db7]31-28 victory[/COLOR][/URL] over the Gamecocks. Hartline, who’s been through the ringer during his career at Kentucky, threw three of his touchdowns in the second half to rally the Wildcats from a 28-10 halftime deficit.

[B]Kentucky coach Joker Phillips: [/B]A lot of teams would have folded their tents after getting down 28-10, especially coming off three straight losses. But there’s a toughness and a resilience about the Wildcats that reflects their head coach. Their 31-28 comeback win over South Carolina was Kentucky’s first ever over a Steve Spurrier-coached team, and props go out to Phillips for keeping his team in tune mentally and emotionally during a very difficult stretch.

This is the signature win Joker has been looking for, and hopefully it will be the beginning of a memorable first season for Operation:Win. Georgia is next, and is another must win for the Cats to make another bowl game. Go Cats!!
