October 11, 201312 yr You also have to give a lot of credit to how bad Nova looked to the UL defense. But they are not Steel Curtain great. :lol2: He was horrific. He was so bad, they may have won the game with Jalen Whitlow as QB. :lol2:
October 11, 201312 yr For those of you saying "such and such team would have won this game" and talking about how bad Nova was... Louisville had A LOT do do with how bad he looked. They sacked him 9 or 10 times I think, and baited him into making some of those throws. I don't care how good UCF's ( or anybodys) QB is... If you're sacked 10 times, it's going to be hard to have THAT great of a game. Louisville's defense is legit. Rutgers averages 150 yards a game on the ground, and last night they had 12. Twelve!

At least two of his interceptions looked like he legitimately thought the UofL DB was his WR. He was atrocious, and while the UofL defense had a lot to do with it, he wasn't beating anyone last night. UofL's defense is a lot better than I thought, but Nova was god-awful on his own as well.

He was terrible. I just think Louisville's defense had as much to do with it as anything.
October 11, 201312 yr On the bright side, maybe we get to keep Teddy in a Cardinal uniform for another year.
October 11, 201312 yr On the bright side, maybe we get to keep Teddy in a Cardinal uniform for another year. Don't know if you could hear it on TV or not, but your boy James Quick got a nice ovation when they announced him on his reception last night.
October 11, 201312 yr Folks 95% of UL fans knew we had about .00000001% chance of making National title game. A lot of things had to go our way with other teams losing games. I have also thought Teddy had about 25% chance of winning the Heisman. I think McCaron and Manziel always going to 1-2 in the voting. As for Teddy I think he will get an invite to New York. I blame Teddy's performance on the OC Shawn Watson - he acts like he dont want to show much. Offiense has been very basic.
October 11, 201312 yr Author Rutgers offense was terrible, but UL's defense was also really good. They got a ton of pressure on the QB all night long.

It's funny to me how so many people act like every Louisville fan expected to play in the NC game and for Teddy to win the Heisman. I'm pretty sure no UL fan on this board expected them to play in the game, and we all figured it was a long shot for Teddy as well.
October 11, 201312 yr Don't know if you could hear it on TV or not, but your boy James Quick got a nice ovation when they announced him on his reception last night. But unfortunately he dropped one of Teddy's 10 incompletions, having previously caught one. Regarding the 12 yards rushing by Rutgers, 2 questions: (1) Wasn't their best back out? and (2)Do losses because of sacks factor into net rushing yards?

Regarding the 12 yards rushing by Rutgers, 2 questions: (1) Wasn't their best back out? and (2)Do losses because of sacks factor into net rushing yards? Yes and yes. They had 60 yards on 17 carries. Paul James had 573 yards on 78 carries and 6 TDs in 4 games. He hasn't played the last two.

They had 60 yards on 17 carries. Paul James had 573 yards on 78 carries and 6 TDs in 4 games. He hasn't played the last two. And they still would have been 100 yards short of their average. Best back out or not, they have rushed for 250 yards over the past two games.
October 11, 201312 yr And they still would have been 100 yards short of their average. Best back out or not, they have rushed for 250 yards over the past two games. I'm not disagreeing...Just answering the question asked.
October 11, 201312 yr You also have to give a lot of credit to how bad Nova looked to the UL defense. But they are not Steel Curtain great. :lol2: He was horrific. ULs D played great, very solid. But he threw 2 INTs square info a UL defenders chest, they weren't jumping routes.
October 11, 201312 yr I read in the paper that, by UL becoming bowl-eligible last night, Coach Strong earns a 10% bonus (based on his base salary, I guess).
