The House of Blue

don't tell them there is no way that a team that only won 7 games last year goes undefeated this year, unless you want to get banned. Bunch butt hurt little sisters over there.

I think they have a legit shot at going undefeated only because their schedule and conference is pathetic. But then again they also lost to Marshall and Florida international last season.

If they would lose to us, the bridges would have to close to keep the birdy fans from jumping into the river.

As easy as their schedule may be, they could just as easily lose 6 games as go undefeated. I think they lose their first game to the Cats (but I'm biased). North Carolina and FIU both have strong squads returning and beat the Cards last year. Heck, even Southern Miss could give them a game down in Hattiesburg. In conference, I think they lose at Pitt and at Rutgers, plus USF could upset them at home. All these squads have about the same amount of returning talent as the Cards. The key difference is Bridgewater. He's a talented player, and most of the UL hype seems to stem around expectations of his continued development. If he has a great year, they'll win 8-10 games and go to an upper tier bowl. If his play is similar to last year, they'll lose 3-5 games the Card fans aren't anticipating.

Pretty sad you refer to UofL's black head coach as Cholly. Plus if you look at their strength of schedule UK is ranked 9th. That doesn't boad well for UK. I have said repeatedly, we need to build both of our programs up in this state if we are ever going to get any respect nationally. Take it for what it's worth, the national media see's a picture of both programs that is not hidden behind opposing fans blinders.

I have never heard a UofL fan refer to him as Cholly. Only on UK boards have I ever seen this reference and it's pretty sad in todays world. As far as UK's ranking on UofL's schedule, it came from one of the other websites. I hope both teams have winning seasons it only helps both programs moving forward.

I have a white cousin named Charles that has been called Cholly his entire life and we never thought it to be racist. Who knew? This political correct sh*** just is way too out of line. This is just A1 BS.

That's definitely not racist, but who cares about that, what does that have to do with my question of whether beating UL would be considered a huge upset given the preseason hype lol? So as far as that goes, I am gathering it would not be a big upset....?

I'm from Louisville and have plenty of friends that are UofL fans and I've heard and seen them refer to him as Cholly.

Not a big deal and certainly not racist.

My comment was in no way racist. Typical UL fan trying to label UK fans as racist. This attempt was pathetic. Better step your race baiting game up.

Also noticed on several posts in the thread over there that people kept saying we are screwed bc our ol is terrible and we are starting three fr on that ol. Did I miss something here as well, I was not aware we were starting 3 fr? Or is this just more misinformed ul fans lol...?

Yeah... seems like I've heard all of this BS before. Ask Dave Ragone how his undefeated season turned out. I remember all the smoke they were polluting the air with (and blowing up their fans asses)... and all the hype about them going undefeated (with a much tougher schedule than they have this year). From what I remember, it didn't turn out so well... the underdogs from Lexington spoiled that season in week #1. Our Big Blue Defense made a Bobble-Head Doll out of Dave Ragone... and upset the Cards on their home turf.

WE WILL DO IT AGAIN THIS YEAR!!! GO BIG BLUE!!!
