Misery Index · Content
Three points short at Ole Miss, and the room is already calling for the backup, which is never a great sign.
What happened
Louisville opened at Ole Miss and lost 38-41, which is the kind of defeat that keeps a fanbase up arguing rather than mourning. The turning point was a call the broadcast never bothered to clarify, which left the board howling "Show a fucking replay so we can see the difference" into a void. Quarterback patience evaporated by the fourth quarter, with one fan demanding they "put the fucking backup in" because "this guy is not winning us many games this season." At 0-1, the misery is only theoretical. For now.
What fans said
“I’ve watched Brohm cost us too many games toying with the clock in situations like that. Sometimes you’re in a rhythm and you gotta just go and score as quickly as possible.”
