The Cards beat Miami and head to the ACC title game. Of course, the ACC is not the SEC, but I think no one predicted this in Brohm's first year. It's a remarkable turnaround for them for sure.
Louisville to the ACC title game
- Thread starter bluedom44
- Start date
First D1 coach to ever get two different teams to conference championships in consecutive seasons.
They took advantage of a weak schedule.
The delusion of UL fans will appear soon. How long before they say “we deserve to be in the BCS playoff”????
We could just beat them and end that discussion fast.
I'll be betting us on the money line against them. They're better than last year without a doubt but they missed Florida State, Clemson and North Carolina on the schedule and Notre Dame gave them 5 turnovers. They are better but nothing I'm really afraid of.
10-1 is a really good record I don’t care where you are. I hope we can get them to 10-2 next week, but based on our play this season, I am not too confident.
Next week both teams can put up or shut up. The past 11 games are behind them. The best team for 2023 in Kentucky will be known!
Go Big Blue!
First of all it is the CFP Playoff not the BCS. However most Louisville fans know the best we could do is the Orange Bowl unless some really big upsets happen. But for year 1 under a new coach we are happy with an ACC Title game and the Orange Bowl for a team that was picked to finish 8th in the ACC.
UK could play spoiler to UL but I don’t see it happening. ACC isn’t the SEC but UL has way better wins than we do. UL by 10+ next weekend
I agree with that but will you concede that the chances of ever getting a schedule this favorable ever again is not very good.
Unless our defense makes a miraculous turnaround UofL will put 38+ on us
We can score but can we pass block good enough to keep Leary upright to score enough
Louisville brings the heat on defense they play a very aggressive style on both sides
Cats need to win tonight to have confidence next week

Don’t forget they have by far a worse loss than we do!!!
UL's defense reminds me of the late 90s broncos. They are fairly small but really fast. They fly around and are good at using leverage to their advantage. If our line does its job we can run on them and keep their offense off the field.
Coaching makes a huge difference, but just going by the "look" test they will still have a hard time with us up front.
As is well established, it takes a minimum of 30 years to turn the program at UK around. We're just getting started, bro.
We’ve been spoiled over the last four years, feels weird going into this game not thinking that we’re going to trounce them. I think they’re better than some believe and I think we’re not as bad as some believe, wouldn’t be surprised either way.
Just a recruiting class or two away, those 4* guys in the past didn’t count.
Lots of denial here. They are better than we are . Have been all season.
They have benefited from a weak schedule, but they've done their job. It's been a remarkable turnaround and I don't blame their fans one bit for being ecstatic.
I think our game should be a good one. We have bigger lines on both sides of the ball, so I think Davis could have a big day. We need to cause a couple turnovers and make them play from behind.
The trajectories of both programs are looking vastly different. That's far more concerning to me than whatever the result of next week's game is.

Would love to see UK bust their bubble but can't see it. Think they handle UK by double digits
Uk has played 3 teams immensely better than anyone on ULs schedule. UT and notre Dame are similar type teams.
I guess your cupcakes and average teams are rated better.
Yeah, they are nowhere near SEC caliber size wise. They are really aggressive on defense, and I'm shocked no one they have played has been able to make them pay for putting that many D players up on the line constantly.

Scoring...we talking bout Scoring? We don't need no Scoring. It's all about defe😂🤣nse
I remember the lsu ole miss game and the Stoops defense only crew were crapping all over it saying it wasn't an entertaining game or real football.
Are you talking about the Missouri team that beat middle Tennessee by 4?
Well yes, the very same Mizoo team that wouldn't lose to Pitt.
Hey kid, do you really want to talk about barely beating bad teams on one's schedule?
Because UL has done it a lot this season. Pot meets kettle.
Funny how the UL fans are coming over to educate us on how to understand football and schedules. Delusional U

It damn sure is in 2023. These defense wins games and championships are stuck in the 70's...
He said college football has officially become an offensive game. "It used to be that good defense beats good offense. Good defense doesn't beat good offense anymore," Saban told ESPN on Friday.
