Syracuse-Louisville: A Game That Will Live In Infamy

You know, here in Louisville, they’re adding an expansion to Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium. Surely this isn’t because more fans want to watch this team. Surely it’s because the unadulterated awfulness of the football within casts such a glare that it tends to temporarily blind aircraft pilots.

↵It wasn’t long ago that a Louisville-Syracuse matchup meant something. Saturday, it was notable because it was a terrible, terrible game to watch. From our own Sean Keeley at Troy Nunes:

↵↵In a game that featured a scoreless first half that rivaled the worst halves of college football ever played, the Orange took a 9-3 lead late in the fourth quarter. Bad clock management and poor special teams play, capped by the decision to punt to Guy again (he returned the ball 44 yards), led to Louisville’s first TD of the day, good enough to win the game 10-9. The difference was a blocked SU extra point.

↵↵He’s not alone. Check the reactions at Card Chronicle. When does football in 2015 start? 2015? Okay, I’ll wait until then.
