Did I suggest otherwise?

If you think Pitino can overrule Jurich, you are wrong.

This went about like I expected, aside from Russ' posterizing of Randle. Anyone who claims they expected that is a liar.

I don't see how you keep Burgess off the field.

That's who I would pencil in.

Calvin Pryor is the nastiest hitter. In person, I was pretty sure he had killed that guy for UCF.

That's like hiring Paul Petrino for your offensive coordinator. It's Charlie's D.

I don't think Charlie Strong is going to become Meyer's DC.

Seriously, says the guy with an Oregon avatar?

Unfortunately, I don't think Getslow is sandbagging--well, he is, but only a little. There's a reason he said something the other day about worrying about a career day for WCS. UK's size is a serious challenge, and if the ball bounces their way on rebounding they can turn that advantage into a big win. It's true that both teams can exploit the other's weaknesses, but I have always felt that an advantage in interior play, especially at home, is a more consistent advantage. That said, Louisville really does have the upper-hand in the backcourt, and UK's size advantage there is very heavily handicapped by Calipari's refusal to play zone. I can see the game swinging on the play of Blackshear and Hancock. If they can defend the three position and make plays on offense shooting and finding cutters, Louisville has a decent shot. This has been said all over the place, but I completely agree with it: I don't think I've ever gone into this game less sure of what to expect.

The single weirdest team that I can remember.

Surprised there's not a thread already. This is the best possible consolation prize for this season. In fact, 10 years ago this might have been one of the biggest games in program history. I say the motivation of playing The U in Florida is exactly what this team needed to get out of their funk. I think Louisville finishes the year on a high note with a win and heads to the ACC. Mods please add a poll, I clicked the button but I'm on my phone and I guess it didn't work out?:idunno:

Nail.

I think letting Teddy rip at the line and keeping defenses off-balance would have also helped keep him upright. More than one way to skin a cat.

Also, Kay looked concussed for real on the sidelines following his hit. Hit rewind on the DVR for my wife to see him double-pump blinks at the people he was talking to.

This is not a joke: Shawn Watson just now noticed that Louisville should run the no-huddle as their base offense.

Not to mention Strong being a defensive coach. In no way was it his call.

No kidding. If you're going to go full gladiator, at least pick up some combat awareness.

Literally in the case of Ohio State.

With all the read-option being played right now, that's like complaining that holding wasn't called--it happens on a lot of plays that don't get noticed

The play was terrible. OSU could have defended those three receivers with two DBs. Spacing was atrocious.

Miller throws an interception going down field on 3rd and 17

Crazy game so far, 21-14 Michigan. 3 ejected in a fight just now, including 2 OSU starters. One left flipping the double bird to the crowd.

Because he never takes that one off? Even when he's down to just party socks he probably keeps it on. I would say that the safest place for it is with the 6'6" dude carved out of granite who owns it.

There's a Maurice Clarett joke in there somewhere...
