Our football series with the Univ. of Louisville has been at best "listless" and at worst "uninspiring."
In 2009, we absolutely blew a game at UL, losing 10-9, to a terrible Steve Kragthorpe squad (likely his final win at UL). The game was as brutal as the result. It took everything we had, including a disaster of a punt (maybe a block), to lose the game. It was pretty sad.
And in terms of drama, that was the high point of the recent series. Since that game, the average margin of victory has been ~25 points. That is hard to do. I have very little against Louisville's football program (other than they've won 12 of the last 16 games), but this is one game every year that has zero punch for me.
