Houston needs 11 points to win. 5 mins to go and Navy has the ball.Unless Navy has a complete meltdown . The shine on the Thursday nite game is all but mute now.
I knew with Cards luck the chaos everybody was predicting to happen enabling Cards to get in would be detrimental to our hopes.Upsets happen. It will still be a match up of two top 20 teams.
It will be tough to get anything better than Orange Bowl now. Just hope it's not against W Michigan.
Please not wisconsin uggh!! LSU or Tennesse be very attractive
Houston losing is not, I repeat, is not a big deal. Cards just need to keep putting up points, laying waste to opponents. All good. Plenty of football between now and that game. A lot can happen.

This!!!
Task is for Louisville under Petrino to go "Old School"...ie...Run it Up....
The better Houston is, the better our SOS will be. Houston doesn't have to be undefeated when we play them for the game to help our SOS. If they finish the year 10-2, the second loss to be against us, we will be OK...What makes you think Louisville can make the playoffs with Houston losing
I've been saying the same thing all week. BEat everybody by 50+ points. Keep Lamar atop the Heisman race, make Louisville "must see tv" for the rest of the nation.
Easy. If the Cards take care of business against the teams that lead up to the game against Houston, they would be a top 5 team. Would they not? Now that Houston has lost to Navy, this somehow means the Cards are going to drop in the polls? Making the playoff was always going to depend on the other P5 teams results, not the Cards beating Houston. Even if Houston was undefeated when the Cards played them and we beat them by 20, we still may not get in the playoff if Washington and Baylor go undefeated.What makes you think Louisville can make the playoffs with Houston losing

If the Cards continue to dominate the schedule they will be right up there at the top. If the Pac 12 and Big 12 winners have 2 losses we're in. It won't matter at all if Houston winds up 9-3. Louisville already has the respect of the voters and the public. They didn't need Houston to be undefeated to garner that attention. Just win out and hope other P5 teams lose.
Houston's Thursday night home game against Louisville on Nov. 17 has already been sold out but, with the loss to Navy, the buzz surrounding that game has been diminished. It doesn't help Louisville's chances of sneaking into the top four if it doesn't win a conference championship because the rest of the Cardinals' schedule doesn't currently include any other ranked opponents.Houston losing is not, I repeat, is not a big deal.
