UK has some nice players. Defensive line is pretty decent. I expected this type of game at Commonwealth. I remember 2007 when U of L was favored....typical rival game. Purdue...who is terrible, played Notre Dame tough. Rival games you throw out the records. As for Bridgewater....the guy is a warrior. Period. He threw the ball efficiently. It's the most pressure he has seen so far this season. He probably won't win the Heisman...but he is in the conversation. U of L has had a long line of great quarterbacks. He has a lot going against him with the schedule. I have watched UK football for over forty years. I have heard the same ole..same ole. It just isn't going to happen. UK will be very competitive if Stoops can keep the recruiting going. But UK will never be a consistently eight..nine win team. They will have some big upsets. They will compete. But the Alabamas, LSU, Georgia, South Carolinas, Floridas, Texas A & M, Tennessees, will always be the big boys. Football to them is like basketball is to UK. Is U of L overrated? I think so. But the Cards are a team that can beat you too. I thought being on the road in our rivals environment and UK desperate to make a statement would make it a decent game. Strong is an SEC guy and he brings his SEC philosophy with him. You have to be able to run the ball to win a NC. Louisville was able to establish that in the second half. Alabama right now looks to be very deserving of number one.
