Louisville can't really help the hand they were delt this year on the scheduling. With all the leaves out of the BE it made it sting pretty bad. With that said the BE has never gotten any national love from anyone and especially now, never will. Louisville will be way better than 7 and 5 in my opinion.
I see Louisville in the Big 12 in the next year or two. Jurich is all over it and why wouldn't they want the largest money grossing athletic department in the nation last year, it's a no brainer.
