    I'm just saying that it's kinda lame to include 6 games that happened like 100 years ago...especially when you use that statistic to somehow make up for the fact that UK hasn't done anything in the SEC in like 40 years...

    No offense, but our record in the SEC and our record against the Cards is two totally different things.

    You mention our record in the SEC in a lame attempt to make the Cards look special for their conference titles.

    That's funny considering they have 2 Big East titles, 3 Conference USA titles and before that, you gotta go back about 30 years to find the 2 titles they won in the Missouri Valley Conference..... WOW!!!

    To win in those conferences is nothing short of AMAZING! Impressive as hell I tell ya. You should be proud. cheers

    I'm so jealous. coffee

    I agree completely. I never saw a connection between the two either. Maybe we should ask rgunslinger, he's the one who brought head to head record into this.

    As far as conference success goes, yes UofL has had very weak competition compared to UK's. But you can't just assume that UK would have done better than UofL had they been in UofL's conference situations. In fact, this is where head to head record does contribute to the conversation. And UofL leads 10-8 in the modern series, which would lead one to believe that UK wouldn't have fared any better (potentially worse) in the Conference USA/Big East than UofL did.

    Every UK fan that criticizes UofL's success in easy conferences indirectly implies that UK would have done better in those same conferences. If you weren't implying that, then why criticize UofL in the first place?

  • 10-8 in an annual series over 18 years is hardly a significant advantage of one over the other, and certainly not a basis to conclude that over that time span, one program has been clearly superior to the other. In my opinion, it supports the view that UL would fare about as well playing SEC's schedule, year in and year out as UK has fared, and vice versa.

    Actually, if we look back over the last 14 years, the programs relative strength is relatively similar, with UL having a slight advantage that has been closing over the last 5 years. That advantage was created primarily by the Louisville success in 2004, 2005 and 2006.

    For example, when you said this... "In the modern series, UofL leads 10-8."

    I had to remind you of the most modern series (UK-4, UL-1). I had to go back and correct myself (I said 5-1)... but I was prematurely counting tomorrows victory. biggrin

    Just keeping it real.

    Thank you professor. However, UofL has proven in the modern series to at least be equal to Uk without the luxury of sec dollars and the recruiting advantage!!!

    I think it's much more reasonable to consider the modern series to be the games from 1994 to present as opposed to the games from 2006 to present. There's a difference between picking an arbitrary year in the middle of a series, and picking the rebirth of a series after a 70 year hiatus. But if you want to talk about stats that are actually relevant, then look no farther back than last year. These are two very young teams.

  • Louisville had won 7 of freakin 8 and 9 of 12 before Jurich made the worst mistake of his life in hiring Kraps. I cant say it enough. Kraps isnt coming out of that tunnel. No matter how badly you want him to. You have about 20 hours before that series goes to 11-8. I can understand you wanting so desperately to cling onto those first 6 wins when UofL was a club team nearly 100 years ago. Your university and fans started clamoring about your Sagarin National Title shortly after UofL's Orange Bowl victory. So sad. You sweat us so hard it's kinda funny.

    No use in trash talk at this point. The players will decide the game tomorrow, not message board fans.

    We dont care if you like us. Were rivals. Youre not supposed to like us. As for respect...we will make you respect us. We'll take every bit that you have today and remind you where your football program stands in this state. No hard feelings....it's just how it is. It's D-day baby.

    Series records mean nothing with Kentucky. Your program is notorious for running scared when you arent winning. You tried it in football and the state legislature had to step in. I GUARANTEE you will try it again. You tried it in volleyball even. You wouldnt even play us during Denny's prime. Scared ****less. Watch this video and it'll tell you all you need to know about what cowards you are. You also lead the series against the Miami Hurricanes in football too. So what. You had a commanding lead on them until Miami won 3 straight. Then guess what happened....

    Enjoy your day. I know I will.

    Come on and grow up a little. The reason many dont want to play UL is that we can nothing from winning the game, only UL does. I would drop the game as well because we gain zero by beating UL, but the game means tons to you all.

    Why play under those circumstances? And please dont start with the debate that we gain something by playing a Big East team that doesnt play a single top 25 team all year. Even if UL wins every game this year it means zero, and you will be the laughing stock of all BCS bowl games.

    We aren't scared. We just gain nothing by beating you other than a W. We win and we are supposed to cause you are just another weak team from the BE conference. We lose and we are dogged for losing to a weak team from the BE conference. It doesn't help in recruiting either. Nothing to gain and everything to lose. You all put everything into the UK match-ups while we view you as just another game.

    We will make you realize that you suck and we are still the better program by beating your chump @ team at your place.

    Ok I gave you overnight to sleep it off. You all should send Charlie a thank you card for pulling Teddy in the 3rd freaking quarter. Could have easily been 47-14. That was a walk in the park. But but but you lose 4 of 6 receivers...but but but you lost your #1 tackler....but but but I tried to warn you. Im just glad it was on national tv for the world to see. Chris Fowler just tweeted he watched the replay of "Louisville's pounding of rival Kentucky." Good times.To say this game means nothing to you is rubbish. Uk fans wouldnt trade a win over Louisville for a bowl game.
    Good luck the rest of the season. Had fun. Now go out and beat Western for the #2 spot in the state.

    Just a few things from this thread...

    * Clemson was the most erractic team in the country last season. They could beat anyone on some nights and lose to about 80 teams the next weekend. NC State had a decent team but had plenty up black eye moments themselves in 2011 including a horrendous loss to a awful Boston College team when State managed one touchdown. So all of these Louisville fans clamoring that the Wolfpack were some football power are once again, as they are on most subjects misinformed.

    * Since all Cardinal fans who have rah rah'd Shawn Watson's dynamite offense ignored my exposure of it, I will post it again. Granted Watson could turn out to be a excellent play caller, but to be stroking over what and who he did it against last season is a bit premature...

    You keep referring to this new offensive coordinator calling plays, you need to look at the competition you improved against before anointing him the next big thing in college football.

    Louisville was 5-3 with Watson calling the shots, with it's five wins coming against teams with a combined record of 34-28 with three wins coming against teams who failed to qualify for a bowl game (Syracuse, UConn, South Florida-which of the 15 combined wins of the three schools, 4 came against teams who finished with winning records)

    Only one win came against a defense in the top 30 (Rutgers) when the Cards managed only 16 points.

    * Let these Louisville fans be. For one, they are not here to discuss the ball game, seen by the one clown who is consistenly calling us mouthsuckers and inbred rednecks, he should be shown the door for those comments by the way. His agenda is solely about his running back to his board and showing off what he did on the KY SITE MAN! WHOO HOO! See link for proof...

    * And finally, Kentucky is a team until last season had been to five consecutive bowl games with 4 straight victories over the Cardinals. I am being told, by all Louisville fans, newspapers, etc that after last years Louisville victory (24-17) and 7-6 finish in the Big East that the tide has shifted so much that they Cats will not stay within 20 points on Sept 2? That is not a realistic statement by any means. In Strongs first two seasons, if not for a pathetic conference he most likely does not go to a bowl game either year, running the non-post season streak to four years running. But, they are in that conference so it is what it is.

    But then you look at the recruiting rankings over the past four seasons..

    2012 KY 31 Louisville 42

    2011 KY 32 Louisville 33

    2010 KY 46 Louisville 44

    2009 KY 27 Louisville 64

    And one would have to think, while the Cards should have a good team ( and a great team with that schedule) how can anyone absolutely no doubt about it say that Kentucky doesn't have a shot to win and will most likely get taken to the woodshed?

    Things that make you go hmmmmm

    And it shows on the field..... bs_sign

    Whoever ranked your 2011 or 2012 class ahead of ours should be fired!!!
