But Stever is right about BC. Its silly to claim that Rutgers is a much better team than BC simply because Rutgers is 4-2 and BC is 3-3. Especially when Rutgers has only faced 2 teams with a winning record and lost them both. Every other team that Rutgers played has at most 2 wins this season. At the same time, BC's schedule includes the likes of USC, FSU and Clemson. Sure, they lost all 3 games, but I'm pretty sure Rutgers also would have lost these games, especially after letting SMU put up 50 plus points against them. At the very least, one could say that BC and Rutgers are similar, if you want to be fair.

Why do certain Louisville fans keep thinking others are being negative or hating on either your school or QB because their views don’t agree with those of Louisville fans? Numerous sports commentators have criticized Bridgewater’s average at best performance against an unranked team. Moreover, its ooc schedule has been ridiculed and was even brought into question on a recent BCS Countdown show. In fact, when Bridgewater was on First Take (btw…. Like how he conducted himself), Louisville’s schedule was clowned on the show. Therefore, Louisville fans need to get real with themselves about who Louisville has played and how it struggled against Kentucky and Rutgers…..

Btw... I sincerely hope Bridgewater wins a Heisman because it may be the only chance a player from American will ever win one…..

For those that think Rutgers is so much better than BC....

avg BCS cpu ratings for this year
Rutgers 46.333
BC 50.333

hardly a huge difference at all. Definitely not signifigantly better as Louisville homers were claiming.

While I agree with the premise, Arky has 3 wins just a point of information.

true. problem for Arky is they may still have 3-4 wins end of season. next 2 games @ Alabama and then home to Auburn. Then @ Ole Miss, Miss St, and @ LSU. 3 top 25 teams left and another game at a pretty good Ole Miss team that is 3-3 with losses to Alabama and Texas A&M. Only the game against Miss St seems really winnable. 4-8 seems awfully likely.

Why do certain Louisville fans keep thinking others are being negative or hating on either your school or QB because their views don’t agree with those of Louisville fans? Numerous sports commentators have criticized Bridgewater’s average at best performance against an unranked team. Moreover, its ooc schedule has been ridiculed and was even brought into question on a recent BCS Countdown show. In fact, when Bridgewater was on First Take (btw…. Like how he conducted himself), Louisville’s schedule was clowned on the show. Therefore, Louisville fans need to get real with themselves about who Louisville has played and how it struggled against Kentucky and Rutgers…..

Btw... I sincerely hope Bridgewater wins a Heisman because it may be the only chance a player from American will ever win one…..

That's why they keep winning and getting jumped by 1 loss teams lol... Sorry schedule.

I've noticed Michigan had the same problem this year. Although now that they've dropped out of the polls, that isn't a problem for them any longer...
