Number 24 looks like he is taking a dump in his pants. And it is no sin to not agree with a FSU fan, so chill dude!

Yep, he and his brown butt played like that against UL. Wait, no. Nevermind. That was the UF player who poopied in his pants during their bowl game.

Anyways, god told me it is a cardinal sin to disagree or argue with an FSU fan.

Cincinnati belongs in the Big XII....I think it will eventually happen

And while I have no doubt that a potential ACC Network would be a huge draw in NC, SC, FL and VA I have serious doubts about anywhere else. If cable providers in Philadelphia, Lexington, Indianapolis, NYC, or even Savannah wanted to make an issue about being forced to add the ACC Network are you confident that would be a fight the ACC/ESPN would win? The only reason the SEC Network got carried on several cable companies in the Columbia, SC area's lower tier was the fact that South Carolina and Texas A&M opened on the SEC Network. How many cable companies that provide service in GA would do the same if GT was on a potential ACC Network?

I got to admit this paragraph made me laugh out loud. South Carolina is no more 50/50 than Georgia or Kentucky. How can states that have universities in the largest cities (Atlanta and Louisville) not be close to 50/50 and but some hamlet in the middle of nowhere South Carolina has as many fans as the State University.

This is truly another example of the typical ACC fan's lack of common knowledge when it comes to Louisville athletics.

Louisville games are already carried live in Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Lexington on the CSN. Fans in Indianapolis and Lexington won't squeal anymore about paying for an ACC Network than Louisville and Kentucky or Louisville and Indiana fans complained about paying for The Big Ten or SEC Network.

UofL pays a Cincinnati radio station to air its games in Cincy. Nobody in Cincy gives a rat's rear what Louisville does athletically. If there is any interest in Louisville it stems from its long-standing rivalry in both football and basketball with UC. In Cincinnati the ranking of fan interest is UC, Ohio $tate, UK, Notre Dame and Michigan, with lesser interest in IU, UofL, Purdue, Ohio University , WVU and Miami of Ohio.

As a Cincinnati resident, I completely disagree on listing Michigan in your "first tier", above Louisville and Miami of Ohio. I don't even know where that came from but the next time I meet a big time Michigan fan in Cincinnati it will be the first time in.... years possibly.

Louisville does not have the market % in Hamilton County that you see for UC, OSU, UK, and I'd give you ND by a small margin. However, 1530 and 1360 AM are not just for Hamilton County, they are for the metro area that also includes Northern KY, where the % of UofL fans increases sharply compared to Hamilton County alone.

Looking at the metro region as a whole, for college football allegiance I'd say: 1) UC 2) UK 3) OSU & 4) UofL. I'd entertain debate on flipping #2 & #3, but I think there are more UK than Buckeye fans with NKY included.

You may have a point about Michigan, but if you live in Cincy, you've likely noticed that on the last Saturday in November half of the city is rooting for Michigan to beat Ohio $tate and Michigan has always recruited the Cincinnati high schools for football talent. There is a lot of interest in Michigan football because of Bo Schembechler's ties to the Cincinnati area and because Michigan is O$U's most heated rival.

Louisville has gained ground on the NKY Wal Mart fan base. It used to be
primarily UK this UK that, but I see much more Ville gear floating around....
same for UC in NKY. You might happy to hear that 99% of the homeless heroine bums wear UK gear, LOL.

The real question: what percentage of UK fans are either homeless or live in a home made of aluminum?

Your family and friends must live in Louisville cause outside of Metro Louisville college football is an after thought.

Kentucky just reduced the size of their stadium. They also just had their first sell out in 5 years and it took a last minute ticket giveaway to accomplish it.

Some Kentuckians do love football but most of them are Louisville fans.

The same thing here in Louisville !

Your typical person in Northern Kentucky is a die hard UK basketball fan. Their only football interest is in primarily their local high school and the Cincinnati Bengals.

Some are probably already in line for Midnight Madness

Have they recovered from the Wisconsin loss?
