With 4 regular season games remaining for the Cards, every game in important in the Big East race. After starting out 2-4 in the conference, it was hard to imagine that the 17th ranked Louisville Cardinals (21-6, 9-5) would be in a position to possibly get a double-bye in the Big East Tournament. The next…

Troy Jackson (January 11, 1976 – February 20, 2011) To CardNation, this guy was one of the most lovable guys to ever put on the uniform. He hustled on the court and to some extent didn’t realize he was 400 pounds the way he moved on the court at times. He was a…

Gorgui Dieng Cardinal Sports Zone would like to thank Kenny Klein, Coach Pitino, and the rest of the staff for allowing us to get an exclusive interview with Gorgui Dieng during the season, especially in a tough portion of the schedule. We greatly appreciate it!
Well, with these two teams, anything other than a close game would not make much sense. In a game where West Virginia outrebounded Louisville 36-28 and shot 12 more free throws, UofL needed every point it could get to cap off a 13 point comeback and leave Morgantown with the 77-74 victory. The win put Louisville at 20-5,…
