    Would a 12-0 Louisville finish behind a 11-1 Bama/Oregon/Ohio St/Stanford in BCS??

    Louisville's schedule is shit. Even if they go undefeated, can they win it all?

    Seems like an 11-1 team with a tough schedule would pass them in the BCS rankings

    Stanford is the only team listed that has a "tough" schedule in comparison.

    You simply can't talk shit about Louisville's schedule, and then give a pass to 'Bama's.

    Alabama might not have the toughest schedule ever, but Louisville doesn't play anyone close to as good as A&M and LSU

    Just seems like how the BCS has worked... I'm not really talking shit. Thinking out loud on if Louisville at 25-1 was even worth a stab

    UCONN basketball and Louisville football will most likely need to move conference to ever get respect again.

    Nothing Louisville does will matter. Only what the big boys do will matter. If Ohio State, SEC champ, or Florida State go undefeated Louisville gets the shaft.

    They have the best QB & the best WR core in the nation hands down. They have a ton of talent in the RB position especially if Dyer has a big impact. The Offensive line is solid, and I'd put their offense against anyone in the country. The defense is slightly above average, don't downgrade this team because of the division and assume they don't have NFL Talent.

    We will see how it plays out as they already have proven they can beat the top of the SEC.

    Notre Dame had NFL talent too. How did they fare against a motivated Bama team? Undefeated Notre Dame is probably worse than an undefeated Louisville this year, if that makes you feel better.

    they might be pretty good but florida didnt show up that game. driskell was a shame and the o-line was in another world. cardinals are a good team but a solid 9 pt dog to any of the top sec teams

    im sure there were a lot of drunk football players at UF parties after a long hard successful season that ended with a a stomping of FSU. if they were playing in the title game no players at parties

    Louisville 25-1 to win it is intriguing...

    Just thinking even if they do go undefeated, they might miss the BCS Championship game

    Boise State had teams much better than Lville and didn't get a fair shot.

    Small market schools/confrences get the shaft when it comes to the NC game.

    TCU was #3 in the BCS in 2009 and 2010. The thing is though, TCU played legit Top 25 competition those two seasons. In 2009, they won at Clemson who was ranked all year, and destroyed both BYU and Utah who finished the year in the Top 25 as well. And in 2010, Utah/Air Force/SDSU were in and out of the Top 25 all year and beat Utah by 40 points in their place. I am not sure if any of Louisville's opponents are the caliber of any of those teams TCU beat in 2009 or 2010.

    im with ya here, gotta give credit where credit was due. Louisville was a better team. However, I don't think they were the TOP of the SEC. Alabama, Georgia and I'll even say a&m were both better. I realize Florida beat a&m but that was a very early game and I think a&m was a much better team at the end of the year than they were in the beginning and would have beat florida had they played them in the second half of the season. hypothetical though so I'll throw it out. Still think Lousiville gets beat if they play Bama or Georgia last year.

    Now when I watched the Lousiville - Florida game, I was extremely impressed with bridgewater and the receiving core. ya'lls offense will be solid. Really like Charlie Strong too. Would love to see yall go against an SEC team this year in the championship.

    What does everyone think about Florida St at 20-1?

    Their team is stacked and they have that pure athlete QB Jamies Winston who's supposed to be one of the best dual-threat QBs in the nation. They basically have 2 games, @ Florida and @ Clemson to win. If they win those 2, I think they'll be in the BCS title.

    isnt this QB a true freshman. that would be quite the story if he went undefeated. very very unlikely they couldnt even win at NCSU last year with an NFL ready seasoned QB. good luck if you take it tho

    not overreacting. just a fun 100 to win 2 dimes. could care less if it loses

    look at as a 2-team parlay on Florida and Clemson (both were only favored by a point or two in preseason) IF FSU wins those 2, they should make it into BCS title and then you're in the money with a hedge.

    Louisville needs a marque win. Need UCF and Houston to keep winning. Otherwise they'll need some 2007 chaos to make it in.

    Really a shame they aren't in the ACC this season, they are a good team.
