I think what it comes down to is, whoever wins tonight needs to lose to Rutgers, and whoever loses tonight needs to beat Rutgers.

Anyone out there care about this game outside of the Big East? I live in the Louisville area, so I hear a lot of hype. .

I've been caring about this game since L'Ville torched Miami.
I'm all giddy already. Then again, I'm a NCAAF nut.
My money is on L'Ville, but it appears the heavy lumber and most sharps are on the Mountaineers.

I think the speed of the L'ville defense will be the biggest surprise and key of the game.

Yes we need to come to a consensus as to who the fans of all the 1-loss teams should cheer for. My thinking is that since Rutgers plays L'ville at home and WVU on the road, that we should pull for L'ville tonight. I like WVU's chances of winning out a lot better.

[TruFloridaGator]

Of course we are pulling for Louisville but they could jump us. I think we have a lot more important things to worry about...like beating Vandy.

Go Louisville!

Yep. Whoever wins will become BCS #3 (or higher, if OSU or Michigan lose) after this weekend, so the only thing that matters (for Florida) is that the Big East champ can't be undefeated.

[TruFloridaGator]

Seriously, though. We have enough problems as it is & aren't deserving of the MNC game right now. Let's focus on the two great teams playing tonight.

[MyTurn2Raise]

Florida should be rooting for a close game with both teams looking like crap

That surprises me. Seems like WVU has gotten a lot more hype.

The line is pretty close to where it opened, right?

(I have Louisville -2.)

Yep, lots of penalties, turnovers, and dropped passes. WVU misses 5 FGs, including an 18 yarder at the end to lose 2-0.
