The last time Louisville played in a lined total of more than 77 points was against Boise St., almost three years ago. That is when Zabranski played for the Cowboys, and Boise was lighting up the clock back than, and they even had a good defense, mind you.They lost to Louisville 44-40. I almost see the same scenario here, as the QB from Kentucky (Andre Woodson) is a 68% passer,and can get the ball downfield. Add in that both teams have suffered losses on the defensive side of the ball to injuries, and this game may go over by the half.
If the line moves to the under, I am going the other way.
Kentucky is chompin at the bit for this game, since they have been Louisville's "bee-yatch" the last 10 years...I think they don't give up on offense, and if they take a lead will try to score as many, as often, as they can.
Likewise, Louisville has been a scoring machine.If this game goes under 77, it is because Kentucky's defense plays hard and shuts down Brohm and Co., which inclines me to take Kentucky plus the points.

Kentucky:*Defensive tackle Myron Pryor (9/12, strained pectoral) is probable for Saturday's game against Louisville. *Defensive tackle Ricky Lumpkin (9/12, hip) is out indefinitely. Linebacker Mikhail Mabry (9/5, broken thumb) is out indefinitely. Cornerback David Jones (9/10, appendectomy) is doubtful for Saturday's game against Louisville. Cornerback E.J. Adams (9/5, wrist) is out indefinitely. Safety Marcus McClinton (9/10, sprained ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game against Louisville. Linebacker Mikhail Mabry (8/30, broken thumb) is out indefinitely. Defensive end Nii Adjei Oninku (8/13, torn ACL/MCL) will miss the entire season.
Louisville:Running back Sergio Spencer (9/11, leg) is doubtful for Saturday's game against Kentucky. Running back Brock Bolen (9/11, leg) is doubtful for Saturday's game against Kentucky. Safety Latarrius Thomas (9/10, torn left ACL) will miss the remainder of the season. Guard Marcel Benson (8/3, heart) will miss the entire season.
All said, Kentucky is banged up defensively, and Brohm will air it out against them.
Louisville' s defense is porous without injuries...this game ought to be high scoring.
I have a crazy feeling that Louisville tightens up this week.....
They will tighten up, Louisville has been hearing how bad they are since last thursday. Believe me, that D has more talent then any other Louisville D before it.
Joke all you want, i really dont care. There is no way that Kentucky will march the ball on them the way MTSU did.
Louisville didnt respect either opponent it faced, and the coaches obviously didnt get them motivated and prepared. I am having a hard time figuring Kragthorpe out, he is no where near as focused and demanding as Petrino, maybe thats the problem.
What i do know, as i have stated before. This defense has too much talent to continue to play as bad as they have.
You guys remember last years playoffs, the Colts had the worst rushing defense in the NFL. Then out of no where, with the same players and all of the sudden no one could run on them. I think that is what your gonna see this Saturday.
As bad as Louisville has played on Defense, why are they a 7 point favorite on the road to a decent Kentucky squad? Cause Vegas wasnt built by putting out shitty numbers.
Brohm has never lost to Kentucky, and he wont this Saturday.
Louisville 44
Ky 24
Kentucky also has no depth on the defensive line, they lost a starter and his backup at right tackle. Anthony Allen who ran for 275 yards last game will have a feild day

Kentucky has been ready supposedly for us for 4 straight years, and what has that gotten them. 4 straight beatings, except the last time out in Commonwealth when we went up 28-0 and Petrino got conservative.
Kentucky is our bitch, and that will continue for another year
