Pretty sure he is over 70%. Like, decently...unless you're subtracting the BS vacated wins.

No, he wasn't before that game. He was 81-35. Now he's 82-35, exactly 70%. With those wins counting from the vacated seasons. Why not look it up before trying to refute my point and make me look like I don't know what I'm talking about? Average of 9-4.

I think the whole Monday thing on a Holiday was a great idea, it just needed to start a bit earlier... everyone is off, why wait until prime time?

So, I actually had looked it up, but my math was off when calculating total games played (apparently I don't know how to add lol). Either way, we had won the game at the time of my post so he had passed that 70% mark. 9-4 average ain't bad, though of course it could be better.

Drop the tude, dude.

Agreed. Is that the first non-Saturday game we’ve had in quite some time?
We played Texas on Sunday opening weekend 2016.

I like that there was a prime time game, but not that there was ONLY a prime time game. They should have done a full slate. Noon, 3:30, 7:30 and a west coast nightcap.

Fair enough. I just take exception to people trying to make me look stupid, especially when the facts were on my side. "Like, decently..." I'd say we both need to drop the tude, dude.

Yea, I'll admit, my math error added a considerable positive outcome to his winning percentage, but I still figured he had to be above 70% after last night. Didn't realize he was so close.

Wasn't trying to make you look stupid.

So, after the game arndtjc and I hit up Waffle House in Louisville for some late night eats. arndtjc queued up the Victory March and Notre Dame Our Mother on the Touch Tunes jukebox, which prompted all the Louisville fans there to throw their hands up and grumble. It was a fitting end to the day.

And that's how white folks end up on World*Star.

I forgot this story too. While arndtjc and I were waiting in the longest fucking line for a football game ever (30 minutes to get into a 65k capacity stadium that wasn't filled to capacity??) I got a surprise. Everyone was elbow to elbow getting herded through the Gate C, and I suddenly felt a woman's hands grab my shoulders and she starts dry humping me from behind. I turned my head to see who it was, and she was some Louisville fan in her late 20s/early 30s along with a friend that was just shaking her head. "Lets move, lets go, c'mon!" Nevermind there was no where to go and we were packed in tight like sardines. Pretty sure she was drunk, but she was easy on the eyes and I wasn't complaining. This went on probably 15 seconds as she switched from holding my shoulders to a reverse hug. Strangest/best interaction I've ever had with an opposing fan lol. I'm just glad I wasn't there with my wife. Southern hospitality, it's a beautiful thing!

Fellas. Did anyone else come away from the game thinking "Louisville fans are *ucking as*holes?"



I wouldn’t go that far because there were a ton of them that were very nice and welcoming, but I am fairly certain the rest of them did not like seeing all of us show up and be loud in their stadium. They got a glimmer of hope early and it was stomped out pretty fast with that late Book TD run, and they started getting testy. Dude got in my face in the concourse at halftime after he was separated from another Irish fan in the tunnel. Just another reminder of why I don’t go to road games

Fair enough to the bold, because that's precisely what happened in my section.

They were awesome around the tailgate and porta-potty lines. And there were a couple of fans who were behind me who kept chatting up me and my girl about how our stay in KY was and talking about the Irish, were getting fired up when it was 14-7 and they were hanging around, but once we turned the corner they got pretty salty and jumped down our throats for joining in on the "Let's Go Irish" chants.

I was about to open my mouth to the guy but my girl beat me to it, said "you know, you were nice earlier, now you're just being an ass. You would be cheering too if your team was up 35-17." I was so proud lol

They beat the snot out of Eastern Kentucky today 42-0 for what it’s worth.

That's actually impressive; not the opponent, but to turn around on a short week and shut them out....not too shabby.

Not at all. Couldn't have been nicer to me and the wife at the game and in town.

Happy to hear that. You must have had a way better section than some of us.
