Offensively **** good indeed. I think people are just hoping he doesn't run a train on our defense. I know I am.

I get it, anyone with a pulse did that last year. It's also his first year back at Louisville and he has a first time starting QB as well, and is missing his best player in D. Parker. The guy is good, but he's got a **** big task in front of him.

I know. It just has not mattered who the quarterbacks have been when facing our defense. Pure scrubs, total unknowns, have craved up our defense. I want to believe, but I just don't have any faith in the defense. Hope they prove me wrong, though.

Let's put it this way, if Petrino faced last year's defense, he would have put up 800 yards because last year's defense was most susceptible to what Petrino does best--drags and shallow crossing routes. He wouldn't have punted.

The hope, and I emphasize hope, is that:
1. it might take Petrino a little while to start clicking at UL. We're lucky to be getting him in the first game;
2. Petrino's new QB stinks and the weapons on his offense are depleted from last year due to graduation and injuries;
3. our defense is VASTLY improved.

This is the hope.

For as much doubt as there is about our defense, there should be equal doubt about their defense being able to slow us down with all of our weapons and them installing a new scheme with a DC who has had a lot of trouble stopping anyone.

beating Petrino for the reasons you listed (aside from the defense actually being much better - which I highly doubt) is much worse for this program than just losing and getting F/A/G the **** outa here with his poosy *** "defense"

basically, in year 4 with F/A/G we are just hoping that UL has enough injuries and is so new to their system that we can sneak out with a W

Rooting against your own team is *****ass.

I just want to win. I don't care how we do it. Obviously, we're going to have to be a lot better defensively this year, or we'll wind up being a crappy team again. But I just want that opening W with a true freshmans at QB and playing a program that bombed the **** out of us 8 months ago.

Nvm did some research:

2003 - 2006 UL beat Kentucky in season opener.

2008 Arky beat Western IL
2009 Arky beat Missouri State
2010 Arky beat Tennesse Tech
2011 Arky beat Missouri State
2013 West Kentucky beat Kentucky

Notice a trend here? Not scared.

The only trend I noticed is all those teams have better defenses then us.

When Petrino has had more than a week to prepare for an opponent, he is nearly unbeatable with a record now 28-8 in such games.

77% is hardly "unbeatable"! We ain't scared!

Petrino's record in season openers if Louisville loses? 9-1

The date of Monday's game? 9-1

DESTINY

Why is this a thread? You sound defeated, OP. Everyone is undefeated until they lose. All we can do as fans is support our team, not flood the air with that negativity. If anyone in our lockeroom shares your line of thinking, we've already lost.

Take pride in your team, that all we really have. Have some courage. We're not the top dog right now. It's going to be a rough road back to the top. We're going to upset a lot of people on the way. Prepare for this game like you're going to war. All we have is each other in this.

We're going to win. Even if we don't, you need to believe that we will.
 
most teams schedule patsies in the first game. Useless stat.

While I generally agree that most of those teams he faced strike fear into the hearts of none, he did lead Western Kentucky to victory over Kentucky.

I'll say it again, he beat the home state school with Western Kentucky. That should never happen and while Kentucky sucks, it's still **** impressive.

Thoughs? Well I'll tell you what.....I'm calling it right now. We are going to go up there and butt plunge that arrogant douchebag right in his own stadium and in front of a national tv audience. We're going to see the Canes on Monday night. That's what I think.

And one more thing......This is not going to be a shootout. The defense will come to play. Were going to straight embarrass those fools. Im sick of all this moping bull****.
