Louisville was about to blow West Virginia’s football season right out of the water. The Cardinals strolled into Milan Puskar Stadium one sunny Saturday afternoon back in 2005 like they owned the place, and for three and a half quarters they actually did own it.
Watching Louisville go up and down the field like a hot knife through butter was difficult for West Virginia fans to stomach because they had seen Louisville try to do this before.
They recalled how Howard Schnellenberger used to bring Louisville teams heavy on bravado and light on talent into our house, trying to put their feet all over our furniture.
