Since UL fans have claimed such

[Blueaz]

superiority in athletics over UK, one would naturally assume that's we would be irrelevant to them. Similar to UK and say.... EKU.
How many threads are on this site discussing EKU? How many threads can found even discussing UL football?
Their site has FIVE (5) of the first 10 threads discussing UK, simply incredible.
And simple, defines them.
If the "MENSA group" that posts on their site, is any representation of the quality of their educational efforts; the African American studies program from UNC has to dwarf any UL curriculum requirements.

Defense is irrelevant - cause u are part of a fan nation of moronical imbeciles that believe your program is on par with FSU / Bama / UND - sooooo no defense allowed

UL sent Dad's hooker to the Embassy Suites. Kinda like room service.

I went over there a few weeks ago. A few things jumped out at me:

-There is absolutely no dissent allowed (or volunteered) over there. Here, we have plenty of UK fans that criticize UK. Not so over there.

-They really believe that they are a powerhouse football program on par with Clemson and FSU and the SEC powers. Not sure why, but that's what they seem to think.

-They don't miss a chance to belittle UK and they claim that they are above us in every way, but they still seem obsessed with everything that we do.

Caveat: They are clearly ahead of us in football and will continue to be ahead of us unless Stoops can improve his coaching acumen and get more out of his team this year (i.e. this post is not sour grapes).

 

[EdNygma]

Well this thread makes 3 on the first page that discuss UofL. The boards of both schools do it whether it be basketball or football. Neither has a monopoly in this area.

 

[Nuke99m.]

To be fair, I do think they are on par with Clemson and FSU this year. Is it crazy to say they have a chance against both teams? It wouldn't surprise me if they will be in both games with a chance to win at the end. Now being on par with the top of the SEC is another story.

 

[tmuck]

louisvillenative, notch8, and carddude are absolutely ate up with obsession. They mention UK in every post, and start multiple threads about us everyday. I hope we beat those fools just to shut those mouthy M'fers up.

Paragraph 2) we are happy with how the football program has been going, why would we criticize that? We sure were critical of the program while Kragthorpe was here.

Paragraph 3) we do believe that we can play and beat FSU and Clemson, that doesn't mean our program traditionally is on par with them.

Paragraph 4) the same thing happens over here, we are rivals and that's how it usually goes.

You guys had that one coming. You've done nothing but point fingers at Calipari for 7 years now while it turns out that your coaches hired hookers to "entertain" your players and recruits. What da hell did you expect would happen?

Of course they have a chance. They will have a good team, and I'm not sure exactly how good FSU and Clemson will be (Clemson has an outstanding QB but lost a lot on D). But, the level of arrogance over there is not commensurate with their results.

RE: Paragraph 2, I noticed this same phenomenon with the Pitino Scandal, Jurich, Petrino scandal, etc. The UL fanbase pretty much follows what their leadership says and does and does not question it. UK certainly has its share of hillbilly fans that will take what they are fed chapter and verse, but there are plenty of us who criticize our coaches or administration. Almost all of you welcomed back Petrino with open arms despite the damage it did to the school's reputation. Almost everyone over there backs Pitino no matter what the man does. Almost everyone over there thinks Jurich does no wrong even though all of this scandal has occurred under his watch. Your group Seems like a bunch of lemmings or else people that know better but choose to ignore facts that make them uncomfortable.

Paragraph 3: It seems that you see the distinction between "playing with them and potentially beating them" vs. being as good a program as they are, but I'm not sure many over there do.

Paragraph 4: Right, but the difference is that everyone on that board acts like they cannot be possibly be bothered by UK and that UK is so far beneath them in football, but yet they post constantly about UK. Doesn't make sense to me (though in fairness, many here look down on UL in many ways but post about them all the time too).

 

[Lonesome Hippopotamus]

I pity the folks who are running UL media and are chicken s$%t to run any story that has the slightest conflicting reports that their propaganda machine has. Their fans are a bunch of cucks.

 

[Nuke99m.]

I bet if we said we no longer need to play you in any sport any longer they would whine like a motor without oil. If we are so far beneath them let's find someone else to play. I never thought the football game benefited anyone but UL in the first place.

Beat them in sports other than men's basketball on a consistent basis and they will shut up. Easy.

Pretty sad when you have to use that sordid affair as a defense of your program, LOL. But it is what it is.

 

[jcmc225]

For football and basketball the game means something for both teams. But once the game is over i could care less about it if i didnt have to hear about it from our or their fans.

In football, if a bowl game comes down to beating them then its huge. if they beat us to prevent us from making a bowl they probably feel twice as good, as they should. But if we make a bowl game and lose to them, i dont really care about the game. Same with basketball. Its just a win on our resume that doesnt mean a whole lot once the tourney actually starts.

The final goal can be reached with or without beating them if we handle business elsewhere..... Also, if we beat them in every sport but football, then football would quickly become the only sport that matters to them.

History is against it. I just looked this up. The "modern" era of UofL football started in 1998 with John L Smith and the opening of Papa John Cardinal Stadium. Since that time, they have played 32 ranked football teams. The record is 11-21. The offensive genius, Petrino, is now 4-10 against ranked teams at Louisville, including 0-5 in his second stint there.

There is a lot of smoke and mirror behind the alleged rise of Louisville football. Give credit where it's due - they've built something from nothing, they've made opportunities and taken advantage of them. But there's a lot of wins vs the likes of Temple and Murray State and Wake Forest. If they played in a conference that had as many as 8 ranked teams each week, the story would be different....

Not to derail the topic, but the SEC is the best football conference, yet Louisville played against more ranked teams than you guys did last year. It doesn't matter if they are in the same conference if you don't have to play them.

Not deflecting at all, the comment was made that there are 8 ranked SEC teams weekly, I just pointed out that the majority of them aren't on your schedule.

yep, that's true - but it's an historical anomaly. It's a topic for another day, but I have said if in the end Mark Stoops doesn't succeed here, we'll look back on year 3 as the crucial turning point against him. One of the few times in my lifetime a UK fan could look at the schedule and say we can (or even should) get 8 wins. Lockerroom poison derailed that, and it may be his waterloo.

Yeah, I'll have to go ahead and disagree on that one. They will talk no matter what. It's a rivalry so I don't mind so much the barbs as much as I can't stand the delusion that defines that fan base. Of course, they say the same thing about us - and there are more than a few in our fan base that think we'll go 8-4 every football season so...

 

[Cats78]

Gotta disagree here. We beat them 4 years in a row in football and they still talked trash and made fun of us for going to Music City Bowls (ironically, we were beating teams like Clemson and FSU). What is Louisville doing now? Going to Music City Bowls.

Also, other than football, we are currently better than they are in plenty of other sports.

Just like ALL of your kind, you contradict yourself. "Not to derail...(I'm not deflecting at all"
And declare you are correct.
I guess if you say it enough it's true...bonjour

So your saying that since this modern era of UL football from 1998 until now you guys have played more ranked teams than us? And your example is last year?

Nope, I just pointed out that how many ranked teams there are in your conference, doesn't mean you play them all.

 

[ULoverUK]

Gotta disagree here. We beat them 4 years in a row in football and they still talked trash and made fun of us for going to Music City Bowls (ironically, we were beating teams like Clemson and FSU). What is Louisville doing now? Going to Music City Bowls, Gator Bowls, Belk Bowls, Russell Athletic Bowls, Orange Bowls, Sugar Bowls.

Fixed it for ya

 

[HedleyLamarr]

Louisville is going to have a very good football team this year. Might even be very, very good. Also going to be good at several other sports. Sorry if you don't like it...

 

[Cats_2010]

I think the main point of pointing out Uofl's record against ranked teams was two fold 1) in 18 years of play you have faced 32 ranked teams which is not even two ranked teams a year and 2) you have not fared that great in those games going 11-21 debunking the myth by a majority of UofL fans that UofL is among the elite of college football.
