Oh come on, JM and BG are cupcakes, regardless if they're at the upper level of cupcakes. Those games have no merit in determining Louisville's playoff evaluation. They can only hurt the Cards perception, be it a closer than expected Cards win or a blowout Cards win.8 home games, nice. That hasn't happened since 2008.
James Madison and Bowling Green will not be the pushovers some think they will be.
I'd also prefer the second bye week come later in the season, but on second thought, the late bye week last year kind of messed up the team's mojo heading into the Stanford game. I'm still pissed about that one.
The November slate will likely make or break the season.
James Madison put up 70 points at Chapel Hill last year in a win against UNC. They have a dynamic QB, who we seem to always have trouble with. And you don't know ball if you immediately discredit a MAC team. BG played Penn St and A&M tough in 24. Also, let's not forget Brohm is capable of a let down game.
Very true. Both have beat the big boys before. But it still doesn't change anything concerning Louisville's schedule.James Madison put up 70 points at Chapel Hill last year in a win against UNC.
