LOUISVILLE CARDINALS (1-3, 0-1) vs. SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI (3-2, 0-1)
Game Time: 7:30
Location: Papa John's Cardinal Stadium: Louisville, Ky.
Television: ESPNU
Favorite: Southern Miss. by 2
All-Time Series: Southern Miss leads 18-8-1
Last Meeting: Louisville won 20-17 (OT) in 2002
Excitement Level: 1.3
Like most of you, my only interest is looking for any indication that the Kragclusion may be drawing near.
Honestly, skipping this game to participate in the open thread is a play everyone with tickets should seriously consider.
Game Attire: Red Louisville basketball shorts, white long-sleeve Bellarmine shirt
It's what I put on this morning, I'm not going to the game, and I really see no need to change.
Pregame Meal: Chicken wings
Kragtastic Prediction: We miss more than two field goals
Predicted Star of the Game: Adam Froman
This is probably going to be disgusting so a fleet-footed, moderately throwing-impaired quarterback could easily be the star.
NOTABLE
--If Louisville loses tonight, Steve Kragthorpe will become the first Cardinal head coach to lose more than eight consecutive games to FBS opponents.
--Louisville has won three straight over Southern Miss.
--Tackle Jeff Adams will be making his season debut this evening. Adams started all 12 games a season ago.
Quotable
--"We're doing some good things but we're not doing enough good things. Our guys are frustrated right now."--Steve Kragthorpe
--"We've got to get back on track. Everybody is aware of our game against UAB (a 30-17 loss) and how poorly we played as a football team. We have to get back to playing the game the way we're supposed to play it." --USM coach Larry Fedora
--"Obviously, everybody’s very, very disappointed for Austin Davis. I can’t say that it’s not going to affect us, but I do feel a sense of excitement about seeing how Martevious is going to respond in this situation."--Larry Fedora
--"You play this game to win."--Steve Kragthorpe
--"Nobody likes losing." --Mario Benavides
CC Prediction: Louisville 20, Southern Miss 17 (OT)

Is it weird...
That I adjusted the color on my TV until Arkansas was a brighter red…and now am watching the game pretending like they are UofL. I love/hate you Bobby Petrino

Only a little weird...
They must have a Petrino defense too. Less than 25 minutes after my original comment it’s 34-23.

I’ll be sitting around a campfire, avoiding any possibility of hey-we-could-win-this-game-hope-then-stomach-punch sequences.

Krag's Last game ?
Starting to leak out on ITV Premium board, multiple reports coming from players and parent of player, that the team was told Wednesday that this is Krag’s last game.
PLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE be true.

I can only hope
there is truth behind the rumors but I doubt Jurich would fire a coach in the middle of a season. It just doesn’t seem like his style.

Really?
I would take that in a heartbeat, despite the horrors I might see on the field. I haven’t been to a game in PJCS since 2001. But alas, I am 900 miles away. I hate living in Florida.

phooey--no one has called. For f-ing B & w seats, for god's sake....

I sent a text to my cousin in Louisville to see if he's interested.
He hasn’t responded yet. I even capitalized the word FREE.

yeah Conference USA
ah fond memories of playing the UAB’s and Memphis’s of the world. OK seriously I’m actually missing this game tonight. i have to work, which sucks but i will be watching on the phone and making up reasons in my head why a 2nd and 3 turned into 3rd and 20. tubervilles quote all but does it for me. looks like he is UL bound, that makes me happy. he is a name. he has had success in the best conference in football. if vic gets the ball 30 times or more tonight we win. i predict 21-20 Cards.
