The reason you are not on that level (aside from depth issues that Stoops is hopefully fixing) is because in any given year you have to go through, at a minimum, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, and South Carolina. Lately Missouri too.

UofL only has to go through FSU and Clemson. I thought for several decades prior to UofL joining the ACC that it would be so much better for UK football if they were to join the ACC, but of course that ship has passed.
Better for Football wins but not better for the university. [Read: $$$]

Honestly don't know why there's a person with half way decent football knowledge or half a brain to be down on Stoops. Three years coaching UK, using mostly Joker's recruits his first year, and has gone 2-7, 5-6 and except for 2 dropped touch down passes would stand at 7-3 right now.

When his own recruits grow and get their feet on the ground many around here will be worried he's getting ready to leave. When he does, who would blame him, he'll leave this program a hell of a lot better off than it was when he took over.

Now it's time for a MFTC to call for a fight at the 50 yard line to show a little swagger.
Did you just argue that two touchdown passes would have wiped out three losses? [roll]

The way I look at it we're 5-5 now. Win two of those losses and that puts us at 7-3. Don't know what I posted but that's the way I look at it. Point being Stoops has brought us along better than most give him credit for.

Thought I'd quote you twice since you seem to get such a laugh over something that makes no difference. But then that's just you.

Last two years in the SEC West Petrino went 12-4...
What was his record in the first two years?

Anyway, what he did against Arkansas is not relevant to the question regarding how he would fare in the SEC with Louisville. With the Louisville team of this and last year, he would probably hover around .500 in the SEC East and would be dead last in the SEC West.

Just pointing out that he coached in the SEC and with his 3rd class posted a 6-2 Record in that league...We don't know what he would do with Louisville in the SEC...That is a hypothetical...Louisville is not in the SEC...they don't have the SEC Label on the recruiting trail or the $$$ that SEC Schools receive from that league which is an advantage those schools have over the Big XII, ACC & Pac 12...nothing more nothing less...we know what he has done in the C-USA, BIG EAST & NFL....FTR His ACC Record is 11-5 not 6-5...just sayn

Petrino's vaunted 2011 season:

He beat a 2 win ole miss, 5 win Tennessee, 6 win vandy, 7 win miss st, 8 win Auburn, 11 win usc, and got blown out by LSU and Bama. He had one good win. The SEC west was not what it is now.

His ooc wins were missourI state, troy, new Mexico and a 7-6 A&M team.

Thanks for the correction...last year the defeats were UVa, Clemson and FSU...for some reason forgot about the UVa loss in 2014.
You should not forget that loss! It was a very, very bad one! Even 'I' am still mad about that one, and I am not even a Louisville fan!

Point being...by his 3rd season in the SEC with 3 of his recruiting classes he won 6 SEC games in 2011...4 of which were SEC Bowl Teams....his only losses came to teams that played that year for the BCS Title...

You're right...Petrino blew that game and really the worse loss was at Clemson...still shaking my head on that.

One last thing on this thread...Stoops beats us tomorrow all will be forgiven...you will be bowl eligible and progress will be shown...and again for the record would not be surprised if UK wins tomorrow...not really impressed with Petrino this year.

example of his offensive genius: Qb throw 3 picks, puts in his running qb...and we all know UK can't stop a running qb. I mean, does UK not even prepare to stop a running qb?

How much longer til a Petrino sex scandal comes out?
BP getting ready to get a nice raise and extension...everybody needs to realize that Otis fans and TJ don't give a rats A$$ about what ANY of the coaches or players do JUST AS LONG AS THEY ARE ARE WINNING...just ask PE and several other Otis fans that post here and will tell you as much...listened to Jason Anderson on ESPN radio today and he was spot on today...TJ knows this will all blow over and his media menions will help expidite the process...It is the way things are in this town

Well guys I'm 34 years old and my whole life UK football has been a cesspool of wasted Saturday's with a few and very brief moments of glory in there.

So excuse me for being sick and tired of watching UK be irrelevant in football. And Mojocat, you don't know me. I'm a good dude so don't make comments acting like me wanting UK to win at football says anything about my character. These coaches are paid MILLIONS to win games. Be real here people. It's not about being a good role model, it's about winning.

Let Calipari lose and see how few people would talk about his good deeds off the court. Winning people. That's the bottom line and I'm sick of watching UK lose.

You are pathetic UofL supporter... No other explanation if you can see where this team was three years ago and the improvements made in recruiting... Geez. yeah last year was a mild disappointment but still only one game away from a bowl game against an SEC schedule and not like your typical ACC schedule with two tough teams... So go cheer for the cards.

UL is a disgusting **** hole. Isn't it funny that Louisville fans are too cowardly to post on this board, especially that puss Steelers?

Does that change the fact that Petrino beats us like a rented mule every season? Try focusing on your own team's problems and Coach Stoops instead of getting upset about the rival.

FACT: Coach Stoops gets beat like a rented mule by Petrino and City College. Why is that Mitch? I'm still waiting for a good explanation on why I have to put up with that as a UK fan?

We. Have enough problems without paying for more. Bobby P has won everywhere and left train wrecks in his path. Louisville hiring him AFTER their AD commented on the disaster the first go round says a whole world.
They can have him.
Football is the sport I want to succeed at Kentucky. Falciparum has done wonders, but his is a semi pro game.
I want to watch college football, but not anywhere Petrino is.
Unless he's getting his arrogant tail handed to him.
