Oh here we go. Louisville beats a few bad teams last year and now it's not even close. UofL football fans are the most delusional fan base in America and that my friend is not even close.

 

:lol: Says the UK fan.

 

Tell me which skill positions you think UK is better than UofL....

They beat Kent (in a close game), Western, Samford and steal a SEC win.

:lol: Says the UK fan.

 

Tell me which skill positions you think UK is better than UofL....

 

Says the UK fan? Honestly that's just a stupid response. This UK fan picked them to win one game, granted I was being a bit sarcastic, I think 3 or 4 wins is more realistic. How is it delusional to think UK has a great basketball program and a poor football program? UofL football fans on the other hand are complete whack jobs. Everytime you guys beat UCONN you start the "great" talk. Remember 5 years ago when Louisville was a National Championship contender, come on. Face it, every once in a while Louisville gets the upper hand on the Big East and that makes them the best team in a bad conference. It's the "World Tallest Midget" syndrome.

 

To answer question Louisville isn't hands down better than any team in America at the skills positions. The are middle of the pack, period. Come back to reality.

Yawn... Again, tell me which skill positions UK is superior than UofL. It's an honest question.

Maybe I am missing something and if I am correct me but I have only seen UL fans say they'd beat UK(which UK fans agree with) and that UL will be better than what they were last year. Which they should be. I haven't seen anyone claiming UL will win it all and most UL fans are saying they'd be 3rd or 4th best in the SEC East. I see misplaced anger from some UK fans on here.

Heres an honest answer. I don't know squat about Louisville's skill players. All I know is they are the same skill players who barely beat UK last year and lost to Marshall. How friggin good could they be? FWIW, UL didn't beat UK last year due to their superior skill position players. They are not hands down better than anyone.

Crazy thing is I noticed that went back to edit it and forgot to fix it. Maybe I'm delusional, or ADHD.:lol:

UL's skill players were better than UK's skill players last year and they were mostly freshmen if I am not mistaken. UL's skill players were more talented and now they have a year of added experience on top of already being better than UK's skill players. I am lost at how this is an argument.

More than Penn State...:lol:

I will say 4 wins.

I'm looking forwad to it! Thanks!

Well the statement was "it's not even close". I will give you they are better, I guess. But UK returns all of their skill position players and I think they are a year older also. Plus, Maxwell Smith is an upgrade over Morgan Newton.

 

These are the same Louisville skill position players that could beat Marshall, correct?
