June 21, 200719 yr #11 on the SI 25 Toughest overall! Louisville's schedule ranks 3rd in the Big East.
June 21, 200719 yr Great comment about #12 Nebraska (12th toughest schedule, that is): Nebraska must make the trip to Wake Forest, but don't be surprised if Husker Nation finds a way to turn Groves Stadium into a red sea. I'll be doing my part.
June 21, 200719 yr I don't understand what makes UK's schedule any less-tough than Florida or Auburn. Especially Florida.
June 21, 200719 yr Kentucky in basketball and football year in and year out plays very tough schedules. This is nothing new at all.
June 21, 200719 yr I don't understand what makes UK's schedule any less-tough than Florida or Auburn. Probably because of the 6 top 25 teams that UK plays 4 are at home. Auburn has all 4 of theirs on the road while Florida has 2 at home one at a neutral site and one on the road. Also Auburn plays South Florida and Kansas State OOC and Florida plays Florida State.
June 21, 200719 yr the SEC having so many rated the toughest schedules is certainly not a suprise. With the powerful SEC if you play in the conference you automatically have one of the toughest schedules in the country with your conference games alone. Imo Louisville has a cakewalk schedule, WVU will give them trouble - could be a case at the end of the season they could be unbeaten and NOT get in the title game. Not likely (not to be in the title game if unbeaten) but it could happen with that schedule depending on who else is in the running. That is not meant to be a shot at U.L., it is JMO.

Yeah SEC always gives you a tough schedule, but I find this year very brutal for the Cats. As far as the Louisville WV game goes, that will be very hard game for the Cards, Im around WV quiet a bit and a night game in Morgantown is horrible on a visiting team. So that one iwll be fun when it comes.
June 22, 200719 yr ^^I will be at that game (Thurs. Nov. 8th I believe) and rooting for Louisville, BUT they have almost no chance of coming out of Morgantown with a win.

I'm heading up thee also, I'm a UK fan but I love to go to Morgantown, especialy a week night game its crazy. I think they are undefeated on those games, so it will def be a rough one for the Cards, very good game.

If there are two undefeated teams from the SEC, Big 11, or Pac 10....AND U of L then Louisville would be out....if not, IFF Louisville is unblemished..they are in...this past season indicates that.
