2* - Louisville (PK)
I look for Petrino to put a spy on White and play the short pass tightly. West Virginia is not going to win this game tonight playing long ball and if Louie?s defense can even somewhat contain the WVU running game, they will very likely be one of the teams playing in the National Championship game. The Cardinals? pass rush in very good and in contrast, the Mountaineers? is very suspect. Brohm could very well go for 350 yards against these guys and if Louisville gets off to a fast start, this one could be over early as WVU?s great defensive numbers have been accumulated against a slate of virtual nobodies. There is no freaking way I?m betting against Louisville at Papa John?s with all the marbles up for grabs.
