The facts are in front of you, where should UK fall in line? Only two of the other eleven teams play two teams from the top six BCS conferences. Georgia however, plays Boise State in addition to Georgia Tech, so I will count them as the third team with a tough schedule. Facts show that Louisville being the toughest team on our non-conference schedule probably gives us the title of weakest non-conference, but not by as much as most like to believe. I wouldn’t mind dropping the Louisville home-home. They offer us nothing.

What does everyone think about our schedule? Should we drop UL for someone else? Should be add a better opponent as a second game? What say you, Big Blue Nation?
