Final

Painful game to watch at times, I don't think either team is good. Crowd looked great.

After watching this, I don't see why FSU will have any trouble with Clemson. Louisville seems to be having an identity crisis right now.

Can't forget that FSU has to go to Death Valley. It's rarely as easy to win there as the anoles made it look in 2013. Plus they've looked rough themselves.

Louisville just isn't very good. That being said, they blew their opportunity on that last series.

Cards have played 2 tough games, neither of which many of us expected them to win.

 

The Houston loss is the one that really stings.

Owen Three.

They are in prime position to go 2-5 or 1-6. They better get things fixed in a hurry.

You can't spell Louisville without three "L"s

Get an offensive style, strategy and rhythm.

 

Actually, I liked the different packages in different situations. But they need to get it tuned up.

 

It seems like a random walk on the offensive side.

 

Defense stepped up well.

This Louisville team is not very good, I'll admit that one. However, the entire 2nd half until the KO return for TD, the defense just looked to be going through the motions. The coaches have their hands full.

It's probably dangerous to post this soon after the game, but this short season so far has been beyond frustrating. Outside of a few individuals, I'm struggling to come up with any areas where the Cards are average or better. That said, they have been continuously shooting themselves in the feet, but have been right in it at the end against what I would argue has been the toughest opening 3 games in the country.

 

I realize Auburn almost lost a money game last week, Houston isn't a household name, and Clemson always lays an egg, but I just don't understand how this team can look so bad for such long stretches but still have a chance against these three.

What a dreadful game. This is why I watch soccer.

Average at QB + well below average run game = average offense (at best).

 

Radcliff rushed 19 times for 45 yards. 2 and some change per.

 

Petrino is an offensive mastermind. That more or less doesn't need questioned Can't win jack, doing anything with average (to below) at those spots.

 

With that said, they have lost 3 games by only 12 total points. Two of those teams in the Top 10 at the time of the game.

 

I thought defensively, they did some great things...but, they have to have some help. Right now; they just simply aren't getting that.

I am sure that Dabo Sweeny is hoping that this was that one game that his team is M.I.A., the one they usually lose by playing down to the competition. Clemson played horrible, imo the consistency of the one RB that had around 170-180 yds. or so rushing won the game for them. An official missing a U.L. facemask on Clemson's last possession gave the Cards one more chance to win.

On a side note, someone could start a contest on how many time the old motorcycle daddy throws his cap or whines to the officials :popcorn:.
