It likely doesn't matter even if Louisville does beat Rutgers, I still don't see any way they get to a bowl game. While 6 wins does make you bowl-eligible, it is certainly no guarantee.

The Big East has 5 guaranteed bowl spots, but there are 5 teams in the conference already with 7 wins (WVU, UConn, Cincy, South Fla, Rutgers), which puts them ahead of the Cards for the guaranteed slots. Louisville could hope that another conference cannot fill all of its bowl spots, leaving one of the bowls looking for an at-large team. However, by NCAA rule, a 6-6 team (like Louisville) can not be picked ahead of a 7-5 team for an at-large bid to a bowl.

As for Brohm, he may be a nice guy, but the only pulling I'll ever to do for Louisville is for them to LOSE every time out! Big Grin
