I am almost positive that many of you, myself included, jumped for joy and pure excitement when we found out that Louisville would be making the trip down south to play in the Music City Bowl against another SEC opponent, the Aggies of Texas A&M. Granted, I think we all would of preferred a spot…

The Cards beat Grand Canyon 111-63 on Saturday afternoon. After the game, Rick Pitino, Donovan Mitchell, Trey Lewis, and Ray Spalding gave their comments. Coach Pitino decided to go with his Al Borland shirt.
I try to never get into bowl projections too early. It is like looking at Bracketology halfway through the season, just too many games left to be played. After the conference championships yesterday, the pictures start to become a little more clear. Things are not set in stone yet, but ESPN’s Brett McMurphy and Mark…

There are some times where I just have to post something that is non-UofL related. This is one of those times. Jaleel White, aka Steve Urkel, gave his thoughts on the UCLA-UK basketball game from Thursday night. There isn’t much more for me to say here. I just leave you with the video.

Before we fully move on to Grand Canyon, here is what Tom Izzo, Denzel Valentine, and Bryn Forbes had to say about the Cards on Wednesday night.
I really am going to try and make this quick. I don’t have too much time right now, and if I don’t get this posted now, it will be very late tonight before I can get to it. I prefer to go ahead and knock it out, and move on from this game. So here…
This one hurt, but the Cards will be just fine.
What a good day for former Louisville Cardinals! And on a personal note, two guys that I know, which is pretty cool. Earlier today, Gary Barnidge was named Man of the Year for the Cleveland Browns, making him eligible to win the overall Walter Payton Man of the Year Award, which recognizes a player for…
Having several classes at UofL with Gary Barnidge way back in the day about 8-10 years ago (wow, really?), I can attest that he is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. That’s why I have been so happy to see him have a career season this year for the Cleveland Browns. What…
