In reply to The Biscuit. Edited that sentence about 3 times and I still screwed it up. Fixing it.

‘doesn’t go to the title game’ – you mean does?

I am fine with the ranking. As someone said, analysts are too simplistic. Lose Teo and Eiffert? No chance! However most of us objectively see the D as being even better than last year, and the combined receiver core will nicely replace Eiffert. Tommy is the wild card, but it is more likely than not that he will be better than 2 years ago.

What is interesting is that I read the Michigan site and their optimism is absurd. They have Gardner winning the Heisman, their 5.0 running back rushing for 1500 and the D pitching shutouts!

I really want to beat them soundly like we should have 2 years ago.

As a Louisville season ticket holder, I agree. Teddy is a man and their schedule is embarrassing.
#11 is a good starting point. OSU is overrated, but lets see where the writers put them before we get too excited.

Pretty happy with #11 overall. The title game performance + losing Golson, Eifert, and Te’o really could have convinced the coaches to drop us into the So-Cal zone.
GO IRISH!!!
