I have to laugh because the alternative is crying. This team has regressed so much from the beginning of the season. And yes, the competition is better now but that doesn't explain just how non-competitive we are. We were humiliated by a very average Louisville team. Completely unprepared and unmotivated. A total embarrassment.

ALL of this is ultimately on the coaching staff. If we don't have the talent that's on the staff. If we don't have a game plan that's on the staff. It makes me sick to realize that we're probably stuck with this loser coach for another few years due to the fact that our exalted ex-AD chose to give this guy a monster extension and contract. But hey, she was AD of the year and our volleyball team is good.

The new AD must be absolutely sick after watching that debacle and realizing there is nothing that can be done about it.

Louisville isn't average. The Cards are a lot better than Pitt. They might have the same record as Pitt, but there's a fairly wide margin in talent. The only reason the records are the same is because the 'Ville played a schedule that was considerably tougher.

huh? They played 3 jobbers and ND OOC. The rest was an ACC schedule. I guess playing Miami makes it harder, but not that much more difficult than our schedule

Well, not a solid excuse, but, the Clemson last minute debacle took what this team had left. Next week will be just as bad or worse.

2 jobbers. They play UK next week.

ND & the U are probably the difference between 9-2 and 7-4. Louisville's losses to ND, Miami, and SMU were all one score games decided in the 4th quarter.

There’s something you can do about it - negotiate a buy out. Or make his life so miserable by giving Narduzzi a special project job.

Louisville lost to Stanford. They are in with a bunch of other middling schools. And they rolled us.
No they aren't. Far from it. Miami, SMU, Louisville, and Clemson are significantly better than the rest of the league going by talent.

So what if they lost to Stanford? Sometimes college teams play like shit and lose games they aren't supposed to. Like Notre Dame losing to Northern Illinois or Miami losing to GaTech... or maybe like 2023 Louisville losing to Pitt.

Do you notice how you say different things in different threads?

Like Kenny Dillingham being bad vs good teams, even though he just beat byu last night.

Or Louisville is a really good team, that just so happens to lose to really and teams like Stanford lol.

Take Austin Peay and Jacksonville State away and they are 5-4. They won 2 1 score contests vs Virginia and BC. To be fair they lose a lot of 1 score games to.

We, like Austin Peay and Jacksonville State are the only 3 teams on their schedule that played in a more than two score game.


Louisville is ok. Like a bunch of other teams.

The Cards are a lot better than Pitt doesn't mean much because that just means the Cards are mediocre. They're not that good and we are a lot worse, mostly because of the coaching staff.

This new AD must find a way to get this Narduzzi out of here. He's not even a bad coach. He's worse than that.

No they aren’t at all much better let alone 4 touchdowns better in talent than us!

Louisville's 4 losses are by a combined 24 points. Three of the losses came to Notre Dame, Miami, and SMU, three teams with a good chance of making the playoffs and all the losses came by 7 points. Louisville is good and they showed it last night.

As Peter Frampton once sang . " I laugh lest I cry" ..
