We handled Louisville in this strange country for SU football to be playing in.
 
The Orangemen took care of the Cards on this day to the tune of 24-13 as the pipe smoking Howard Schellenberger paced the sidelines.
 
Schellenberger has always been a bit of an enigma to me.
 
It seems he had the college football world by the tail when he took a left for dead Miami Hurricane program all the way to the national championship in 1983. He revolutionized recruiting by building his squad almost exclusivly from a 3 county area surrounding Miami. Schellenberger is the individual who was responsible for the rest of the country taking a closer look at the state of Florida for recruiting purposes.
 
In 1985 he took over a worse program, Louisville. They hadn't had a winning season in the preceeding six years and only two in the past twelve. They played in a minor league baseball stadium and had to give away tickets to get fans to come out. The powers that be had given serious thought to dropping down to 1-AA.
 
His first three years were dreadful, going 8-24-1. However, in the next three seasons the Cards went 24-9-1 and even walloped Alabama 34-7 in the 1991 Fieta Bowl
