Should we have known from Week 0 that this was going to be a schizzy wackowhirl season of epical psychodramatic proportions? I imagine. Recall with me what happened in Dublin when Iowa State bested Kansas State in a Week Zero Battle o’ Erin. The winner of which, one sage — Guilty — predicted would make […]

Every quarter of this game felt like it’s own separate game. In the first quarter both teams went toe to toe and were scoring at a high clip ending at 26-24. Then in the second quarter there were long droughts for both teams and at halftime the score was only 38-33. The third quarter both […]

At Media Day before the season I noticed that still rehabbing Kasean Pryor’s hair was its natural color. Brownish. At least, not blonde. I asked him if he was going to go to the peroxide when he was back to playing? “Maybe.” “It might be a biblical thing,” I suggested, “you know, Samson and his […]

Louisville’s pretty tough to beat on an average shooting night. A good shooting night by the Cards is going to be enough to knock off most teams in the country. An exceptional shooting night by U of L? Well, Memphis State just found out what that looks like. The Cardinals connected on 18 of their […]

—According to Pete Thamel and Adam Schefter, Louisville WR Chris Bell suffered a torn ACL during the team’s loss at SMU last month. It’s believed to be a clean ACL tear, and Bell is set to have surgery this week with noted surgeon Dr. Dan Cooper in Dallas. Here’s hoping this doesn’t drop Chris out […]

Memory often misfires, then melds and merges. We think we remember something especially resonant. Then check the facts and discover being close but a little off from the timeline. Such as it is today, when sharing my personal favorite U of L over Memphis State memory. Which is why I’m going for a twofer, a […]

For the majority of the first quarter it appeared as though this might be a very long night for the Cards. With about 3:30 to go in the quarter the score was a paltry 8-6 and even after a scoring run that made the lead 21-12 going into the second quarter, Louisville shot just 14% […]

At least for the regular season anyhow. I was waffling about weighing in on the CFP and such as the Aldi’s Egg Yolk Bowl featuring North New Hampshire A&M vs. West New Mexico School of Podiatry. Both 5-7 but making it because there weren’t enough schools at .500 or better this year to fill out […]

As was widely anticipated, Louisville will not host Georgia for a football game in Sept. of 2026. The Cardinals will also not go to Athens to play in 2027. In light of the SEC moving to a 9-game conference schedule next season, UGA and U of L announced on Wednesday that they were “mutually agreeing” […]

With all due respect to the New Hampshire Wildcats*, they are no South Carolina. The biggest question coming into this game was whether or not Louisville could ride the momentum from their valiant performance against the Gamecocks a few nights before. When the Cards jumped out to a 20 point lead in the first quarter […]

Comeuppance: “a fate deserved.” That would be the relative No Show in Fayetteville. The antonym of that: Well, absolution, and/or uh exoneration kinda but don’t exactly work. It’s still early in a long season. Vindication. That’s the one. Louisville 87, Indiana 78. What follows may be gibberish. Despite the Cardinals überfast start — 16-0 after […]

Ryan Conwell scored 21 points to lead the way for the Cardinals, who hit 13 three-pointers and had five players score in double figures. Isaac McKneely […]

Before I was fully admitted into the escape-proof prison of hate that is the Louisville-Kentucky rivalry (ages 0-4, basically), there was Indiana. My father and my two older brothers were my unassailable sporting guides through the vastly underrated preschool formative fandom years, and their stance on IU was pretty clear: Bob Knight was a mean […]

Pennsylvania State, easily one of the top two or three openings, stands at the alter like a bride whose cake has been left out in the rain. Groom didn’t show. She looked over at best man, whom she’d been zoomin’ with, asked “How about you?” at which point he booked for the parking lot, tossing […]

Louisville came into the game against powerhouse South Carolina a 15 point underdog. Apparently the Cards didn’t get that memo though because they went toe to toe with the #3 team in the nation and even held a 5 point lead with under 5 minutes left in the game. Louisville had the ball down 2 […]

In my pregame prep, I refreshed my memory about some truly important mileposts, battles of note against Arkansas in decades past. The Good: Scooter or Charles one or the other or both following a shot to beat the Razorbacks in Knoxville in the Dream Game Chaser game. The Bad: The season ending loss to Arkansas […]
