      I can't bring myself to get worked up over it. I didn't create Louisville's schedule.
      I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

      • I don't see how you can criticize Louisville's schedule. They play in a tough Big East and beat Miami, Kansas State and Kentucky (three BCS conference schools) in non-conference. What else are they supposed to do?

        • Personally, I don't care what they do, since I have no vested interest in seeing them in the title game. Before the WVU game, their schedule was ranked by Sagarin as #70.

          • Who cares what Sagarin thinks? His rankings are garbage.

            • I only care inasmuch as it is an objective, unbiased measure of strength of schedule and I haven't developed such a measure for myself.

              • Well, even though I consider Sagarin's rankings to be worthless, I think you'll find that Louisville's SOS will go up significantly once they've played West Virginia, Rutgers and Pitt.

                • Indeed... and it wasn't Louisville's fault that Miami and Kansas State weren't as good as they were when the games were scheduled. Kentucky is a rivalry game that happens every year.

                    We'll see.

                    • Considering how Sagarin rates the Big East as 3rd best conference in the country (and not far from #2, the SEC), I think Louisville is bound to rise greatly in SOS after going through their main Big East schedule.

                      • I'm not impressed with the mention of Pitt, because they lost to Michigan State, and MSU sucks.

                        • Michigan State didn't suck until a loss to an even worse Notre Dame team shattered their psyche.

                          • They did suck, they just didn't know it yet. MSU has a history of suffering a big loss, then going on a losing streak.
