Kyle Whittingham, you know the truth. You know time had run out, and that you’d been beaten by a four TD underdog intrastate directional in your Michigan debut. You know the 00:00 wasn’t a lie. You know it. I know it. Announcer Ian Eagle knows it. NBC rules guru Terry McAuley knows it. The feckless […]

What To Watch For: Ole Miss Rebels

LOUISVILLE’S INTERIOR OFFENSIVE LINE WILL HAVE THEIR HANDS FULL It seems at times that the great “SEC Defensive Linemen” are mythologized as if they are gods, but I would challenge anyone to watch the highlights of the Ole Miss defensive line and not understand it a little bit. Will Echoles is going to be a […]

Uniform Report: Ole Miss

The Kool-Aid red unis didn’t work out too well against these guys five years ago, so I’m good with rocking the all whites. Thoughts?

Louisville starts the 2026 season with a game against a team that was a snap or two away from the national championship last season. It won’t be the first time this program has started off the year with a big-time opponent, but Ole Miss is a squad that the Cards match up well with. The […]

TJ BANKS #4 Height: 6’2”  Weight: 205lb Position: DB Class: Junior Hometown: Tuscaloosa, AL Summary: It’s not often a four star prospect out of Tuscaloosa, AL gets out of the state, but that’s exactly what Banks did, choosing the Rebels of Ole Miss over Alabama and Auburn, among some other top tier SEC programs.
