It took a fake field goal trick play to score Rutgers only touchdown and any other program not trying to make a case for a BCS title would be happy with the Offense. 25 NFL scouts, to include the GM of the Jacksonville Jaguars, watched as Teddy Bridgewater tossed up decent fantasy football numbers. More impressive was the balanced UL offense 32 runs and 31passes and clock eating drives managed by Teddy. Despite an interception, not his fault, and a fumble caused by a blindside sack Teddy Bridgewater went 21 for 31 with two touchdowns. What the scouts had to have been impressed by was the fact that after a hit that would have rattled the best QBs in the NFL Bridgewater jumped up, checked for the next play, got in the huddle, said something to his blindside tackle then moved on to win the game. That displayed Grit, Leadership and Maturity that few people in his age group will ever develop. Teddy Bridgewater is one of the best traditional pocket QBs in the last few years. Lets hope his talent is not wasted on a crap hole team like the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The analysts and sports writers that talk down Louisville despite the numbers and BCS rules are the same folks that ruined Tim Tebow's shot at a legitimate NFL career. Don't pay attention to the men behind the curtain. Remember these folks are not actively participating in Collegiate or Professional Football even as a Water Boy. They are getting paid to write, generate links and get viewers angry.
NOTE: The Jacksonville Jaguars have collapsed and are in the midst of a cultural crisis. Why is NFL Commissioner Roger Goddell allowing the GM to visit college programs, host major parties in Louisville while putting an obviously inferior product on the field? Does not the NFL have a duty to the fans to place a legitimate and competitive team on the field each and every Sunday? I am tired of watching otherwise competitive teams openly throw games in order to draft the Heisman Trophy winner. I hope the NY Giants go winless so they can draft Teddy instead……….
Mark Coomes: Three reasons why critics are wrong about U of L 'win' over Rutgers | Insider Louisville:
"When the final horn sounded, I was as frustrated and disappointed as the next guy. But after further review, what happened last night was that, for the first time this season, the Cardinals proved themselves to be a legitimate top 10 team.
The polls might say otherwise on Sunday. The cognoscenti said otherwise before the game even ended."
