September 17, 201312 yr What did you see you that game that makes you say he's scared to get hit? Nothing...
September 17, 201312 yr True true I'm just saying I never realized how afraid he is to getting hit until this week. But I understand he won't be getting paid to get hit next year. I've only watched him a few times, mostly highlights. Keep stretching.
September 17, 201312 yr You're joking right? Cal Northwestern Iowa Wisconsin Penn State Michigan Illinois Those 7 games would all be the toughest opponent UofL would play all season. I hate Ohio State with a passion, but to say their schedule is only "a small step up from Louisville's" is just plain insane. I disagree on all 7, UCF is tougher than several. On the weight of the whole, I agree that OSU has a tougher schedule than Louisville by at least several steps... but I wasn't talking about my opinion.

I hate Ohio State with a passion, but to say their schedule is only "a small step up from Louisville's" is just plain insane. Louisville doesn't play any ranked teams, OSU plays three. That's 25% more. The highest ranked currently is Michigan at 15. That is obviously better than UL's schedule, but let's not paint this picture of OSU having a tough road. I've been wanting to bring this up, about how nobody has questioned OSU's schedule, but it will/would fall on deaf ears.

Oh yea.. their schedule is much tougher than Louisville's too.

I've been wanting to bring this up, about how nobody has questioned OSU's schedule, but it will/would fall on deaf ears. Compared to Oregon, or Stanford, or an SEC team, you're right it's incredibly weak. Compared to UofL's, it's a juggernaut.

I've been wanting to bring this up, about how nobody has questioned OSU's schedule, but it will/would fall on deaf ears. I think it's fair to question their schedule, it's just in a different class of schedule from Louisville's. They play three ranked teams, but two of those ranked teams come in back-to-back weeks, with the second of those games coming on the road. Cal is not really a team I'd think of as a complete push-over, they are respectable enough as an opponent and someone who can come out and make you beat them if they are on their game. The Cal game was also a road game. Iowa and Penn State are capable of beating some teams as well. Ending the year with Michigan (one of the biggest rivalries in all of college football) on the road will usually be a good game regardless of how the teams are ranked.
September 17, 201312 yr Compared to Oregon, or Stanford, or an SEC team, you're right it's incredibly weak. Compared to UofL's, it's a juggernaut. As Ram said, if it came down to a 1-loss OSU and an undefeated Louisville, OSU's schedule wouldn't help them.

September 18, 201312 yr John Anthony is harder on Louisville and Bridgewater than most with good reason; it might not be true of every team and every QB, but an unbeatean UofL and Teddy would leapfrog a one-loss OSU and Braxton Miller to the championship and Heisman. The B1G isn't the most revered conference in post-season play, and Ohio State's schedule is only considered a small step up from Louisville's by the talking heads who think football begins and ends with the SEC. Thanks for showing us what you know about schedules and conferences. All I said is he doesn't like to he hit, you are lucky the best pass rusher he sees till January was Z'Darius. I also said he will be the #1 pick in the draft, yes I'm very hard on him and stretching as Deuce says. He's a pocket passer that is afraid of contact, hopefully, he has a solid line in the NFL and doesn't develop happy feet.
September 18, 201312 yr I know, that's one team, not several. Then take Penn State off of the 'tough' teams list for Ohio State.
