How do we know he's not Mel Torme?
Let's define our terms here. Brooks did fairly well and left Joker a viable program which he then promptly trashed.
Obviously much of UK's history since the late 70s has been fairly ignominious.
Couldn't be happier with the present direction of the program.
5-1, 3-1 halfway through. Not particularly pretty last night, but trashing a team 28-6 on the road is always nice. The meat of the season starts next week in Death Valley.
Every team from here on is better than any of the 5 teams they've beaten. I could see them losing all 6 just as easy as going 3-3 (no way they win more than 3). The offensive line is brutal. Unfortunately devante parker doesn't play tackle.
I keep expecting petrino to work his magic but between the line and lack of qb experience I'm not sure that there is anything to be done other than hope for improvement.
3-3 wouldn't surprise me, but I think the Cards get one of Clemson, FSU or ND. Of the three, Clemson is probably the most likely.
I agree but think they'll also drop one of the other three games. Maybe BC on the road.
BC is awful, but that definitely does not preclude Louisville from losing to them on the road.
BC's not great by any means, but a team that can rush for 450 yards while beating USC isn't awful. A one-trick pony kind of team, though. Since Louisville has been pretty stout at stopping the run so far, you might have an easier time with them than most.
Reading comprehension is not just an ability, it's a choice
BC got thumped at home by a bad Pitt team and lost to Colorado State at home. They are not good. The USC game was definitely an anomoly. It's not as though USC is all that great, either.
"Not good" and "bad" aren't the same thing. By that definition 75-80% of college football is bad. If you're bad or awful, you're going to lose nearly all the time. Win some, lose some, in the same ballpark as most of your competition? That means you're average or mediocre. That's what Boston College is. Bad is what Wake Forest is.
Reading comprehension is not just an ability, it's a choice
I wouldn't be even a little bit surprised if BC loses at WF in two weeks.
Really? I would. Wake Forest has some scrappy guys on D, but they basically can't play offense.

The quarterback play is brutal. It's reached the point where I root for a punt because I feel our defense has a better chance of scoring.
That was a bad loss. Clemson is not good.
Neither is Louisville.
