Let’s talk Louisville

This game will be tough. They've looked pretty good in the few games I've watched of them this year.
100% focus and intensity is a must.

Manny shut his offense down when we played App State, is ULs player that much better to make it up

I think they are much better than app state. This game won't be a picnic. Our squad is not fit for a shootout. Even a bad defense can get 3 and outs on us. Enos needs to call better plays on 1st and 2nd down for us to win this one. Our average 3rd down distance was 8.8 before fsu. Worst in the country.

The great Bronco Mendenhall was supposed to coach circles around us, too.

Yes, and don't forget the master-mind of offense Mark Whipple was going to have a field day with our defense too. Every week its the other teams guy. The fans want the team to play like the old teams played, but they are scared of everyone.
 
I do not think it has been as much about coaching as its been about sleep walking against weaker teams. Will Miami actually show up or take another game off. Let down is very possible.

Franchise was right. We'll learn a lot about Manny in the next couple games. Because well coached teams don't have letdown games.

It's Manny's job to make sure they're fired up to play every week. Let's see how he does.

I truly hope we kick a$$. But we already know what we have in Manny. Fool me once shame on you, fool me three times shame on me.
 
We were running routes with the RB, once we starte using them to help block our OL look different. UL is average. Our last home game was embarrassing. We must beat them decisively and finish the season strong

Has "let down game" written all over it but Manny needs to keep these kids focused. We can have great momentum going into the bye week, where we can go recruit with something positive to talk about.. and then a "gimme" game against FIU which would put us in great position for a nice win streak going into the Duke finale which COULD be for a trip to the ACC title game if the chips fall our way. A lot to play for and a lot of hang our hat on to salvage a let down season. Especially for the Seniors.

I have seen UL play a few times and while their Defense is awful, they can score in bunches and the new QB, Hawkins, is light years better then the Pass kid who was horrible and will never get his job back.

Hawkins is the rb

UL is giving up 36.4 points per game against FBS opponents. We are averaging 21 points per game against FBS opponents. Something will give.

this is a great point, I think it comes down to avoiding the fatal mistakes early in the game like GT and VT, because once we get a 2 score lead, our defense becomes a monster

Our three best games played, UM was the underdog in each (UF, UVA, FSU), so how does Manny avoid the letdown and keep our edge when we are favored against Louisville?

We once again will be the more talented team, but Satterfield & Co. will likely outcoach our squad.

I hope we keep the momentum rolling and have a convincing victory, but history tells me to expect the opposite. At worst I hope we win a close game

Plus they have a mobile QB

Don't see how anyone can not agree with this. Satterfield & Co are a very good staff.
 
Win in the trenches on both sides. The DLine will continue to do what they do.

Hopefully the OLine can continue to improve and give Jarren time. When that happens, I think we can compete with anybody
 
Play with the same focus and intensity as we did on Saturday and we win, the question is can we do that?
 
I don't think this will be a let down game at all. This is the seniors last home game and probably DJs. I don't think 55 or 56 is going to let the team or themselves go out like that.

Hawkins is not their QB.

They have Cunningham (the runner) and Conley (more of a traditional passer). Cunningham is injury prone. If GR15 plays like he did last Saturday then Cunningham will probably not last long.

Yeah you are right. Whoever the **** it is, they look better then Pass did. If Pass was the QB, this would be an easy win. Cunningham/Conley looked impressive against UVA and in the shootout against WF too.
 
Have to stop the mobile QB; that has been the achilles heel of Manny's defense in his time here.
