Louisville rolled up 63 points against Oregon State today.  Anyone got any ideas on our defense for next week?

Lets all go to the hotel where they are stationed, pretend to be frat guys from another school, and pick fights with key offensive starters.  If we get at least brohm and bush suspended for a game, everything should be a o k.

That or pressure the crap out of brohm and hope he makes mistakes.

I absolutely respect Louisville, but I do not think their offense is invincible. Kentucky, who does not have a good defense (they have given up 31, 29 , and 38 points  in three games this year) held them to 31 points (L'Ville scored only 3 in the 2nd Half).

If our defense can bottle up the run and our DBs continue to play their Bend But Don't Break Style, ala the Bucs, I think we can have a shot.

Hold them under 35 points and who knows, we might just shock the world and set up a monumental road trip to UM.

You probably don't know this but Petrino has admitted he likes to go conservative in opening games.  Last year we beat UK 28-0 with 60% plus run plays.  This year it was 67% run plays against them.  Most of the nation knows what happened after that.  I wouldn't put much stock in the Kentucky game.

Although L'Ville obviously dominated the game against Oregon State, I do not know how much stock to put into that win. Oregon State beat a lowly Division II Portalnd State to start the season and then edged out a win againt a seemingly washed up Boise State team.

While I would never be full of enough Hubris to come on this board and talk about how we will destroy UL, I do think that we can (and hopefully) will make it a competitive game, IMO.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.

    “In my mind, I’m kind of like, ‘OK, excuses over'. We know what we need to do. We’ve got the right team together, and now we move forward, and we’ll evaluate and be accountable to each other, including myself, from this point forward.”
