SOS

Hilarious.
All the bullcrap we UofL fans gotta hear year in year out about how easy Louisville's schedule is in football. I just looked up our sos since joining the ACC and compared it to uk's. Of course I didn't go back any farther because we hear how bad the ACC is every year also. Here is a comparison.
UL. UK. UL. UK
19-20- 40. 32. +8
18-19- 75. 14. +61
17-18- 25. 59. +24
16-17- 14. 55. +41
15-16- 35. 64. +29
By this seasons end ours will be better than theirs because their remaining games are Vandy, a mid-major, and us. Go back farther more of the same.
Its all perception. They have no basis for all their smack talk. Cause most years they don't play Bama, LSU, Auburn. Most years playing us helps their ranking while it's the opposite for us.

UK fans used to knock the BE- but it’s a conference they could never have won, or even had a winning record in.

There is little doubt that UK has a tough schedule playing us, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Mississippi State and one other team out of west on a home and home basis every year.

They make their schedule more manageable by always buying 3 home games against G5 schools in the non-conference. Considering where their program is, that’s probably a good call.

Our schedule has gotten tougher in the ACC as well, partly because of the addition of schools like FSU and Clemson every year, plus Notre Dame in the non-conference on average every 3 years. Miami, Pitt, North Carolina, and Virginia Tech are all usually tough in most years, and we get one of those teams in addition to Virginia, which has improved under Bronco Mendenhall.

They were bashing Clemson on ESPN the other day for scheduling Wofford late in the season. The Sec has been doing this for decades. Plus schedules are made years in advance. Its not Clemsons fault that no one on their schedule is any good right now. In 2 years the same schedule could see them playing 4-5 ranked teams. Also they have played two sec teams this season too that haven't helped anything. I thought sec was awesome. Is that Clemson fault too?.
