6-1 is the only stat you need to know iirc. You will find this funny I called the afternoon underdogs on wednesday and told them about why it is not at all surprising that Teddy Brigewaters stock has dropped since he didnt do the combine, had a terrible pro day, and that Louisville's SOS was overall atrocious last year. Overratedness in its purest form imo. They were not fans of my call though I love their show lol.

He is so Overrated-(sarcasm) that the NFL invited him along with Calvin Pryor to NYC for the 1st Round of the NFL Draft...Also How do you explain Blake Bortles...the other American QB that also has a 1st Round Grade, FTR Louisville and UCF played the same schedule yet both of that league QB got the Invite to the 1st Round of the NFL Draft....fact is Louisville is one of 4 Schools that has multiple players invited to the Green Room for the NFL Draft...but I guess you have an issue with Gil Brandt...someone who is in charge of the Invites for the NFL...someone that ran almost 30 Drafts for the Dallas Cowboys and drafted 5 Teams that went to Super Bowls and 6 Pro Football Hall of Famers...he has talked to the NFL Clubs and both Bridgewater and Pryor are expected to be 1st Round Picks...Expect Bridgewater to go no lower than #20 Overall to the Arizona Cardinals...now maybe you're hoping he does a Geno Smith and falls out of the 1st Round, right now it is doubtful....more than likely it will be like a Aaron Rodgers/Brady Quinn...go from a Top 5 Pick to a Top 15-25 Range...but you listen to the Afternoon Underdogs...myself I listen to SiriusXM NFL Radio for unbiased NFL Draft News from people that actually ran teams and have connections to NFL Front Offices...your best bet for local sports listening is ESPN 680 and Jason Anderson...

It's almost probably how being a Florida fan feels about UGA FB fans only UGA is in a real conference and has a decent SOS/OOC games each year.

Louisville can say them same in Football....outside of the Kragthorpe years it been very bleak on the Gridiron for Kentucky against Louisville, 4-20 the last two years Overall Record and 0-16 in Football in SEC Play...now you have Louisville reclaiming their Dominance in that sport over Kentucky during the Bridgewater Era...and when talking ownership nothing says that better than Petrino vs. Kentucky...remember this comment on taking a knee..."We gave them what they want"...ie, Mercy after a typical Petrino Beatdown over the Wildcats...

Yeah I feel bad for you guys with you guys first division 1 schedule and not too many players returning to look forward to. It's going to be a tough year no doubt!

First Division 1 schedule? Are you new to basketball?

I know right...I guess he forgot that in Basketball it was Old BIG EAST > SEC...and the 4th place AAC School won the 2014 NCAA Title and the Basketball Conference Louisville belong to had won 3 out of the last 4 National Titles...UConn also won the Title with only One McDonald's All American....

I also find it humorous that I didn't even say anything untrue. You basically got mad that I didn't guarantee you'll win the championship. The only swipe I took in that first post was at my own player (Wayne Blackshear). Someone is a little bit insecure lol

In the words of Bugs Bunny...what a maroon.

That sounds absolutely delicious with biscuits.

Now I'm Hungry....

It will be nice to face them in the Champion's Classic early in the year. I expect a lot of growth from both teams, however if UK doesn't win the championship this next season it should be a considered a bust.

If the dirty Cayuts don't win the title, their season will be a failure.

Re: OP

Yes, UK will dominate the SEC next year. Of course that's not much of an accomplishment.

Nationally, I'm more worried about UConn dominating. Boatright (sp?) is every bit as talented as Napier. One more year of seasoning will be scary to see.

I'm also really excited to see Jermaine Lawrence (UC's 5-star recruit two years ago) finally have a full season. He hasn't played a full season of basketball since his junior year of high school. Pair him with the redshirted 7-footer Jamaree Strickland, and two of last year's best true freshman guards in the nation that are returning (Kevin Johnson and Troy Coupain). We're going to have a heckuva young, talented team next year.
