I’m well aware that football season is a long way away but I guess the excitement of spring practice has people talking Cardinal football. I know because I have fielded quite a few questions this week and most pertained to the defense. So I’m going to address some of those questions and talk about a…

The volleyball team hit the court again on Saturday in an exhibition match against Dayton. It was their first time on the court since a 3-1 victory at Pittsburgh (snapping the Panthers’ 37-match home winning streak) on October 25th. This exhibition kicks off the spring portion of the season. Due to Covid, the season was…
We are still about 7 months away from the start of the 2021 football season. So many things can and will change before then but that won’t stop Dalton and I from going over the schedule and telling you what we think might happen. It’s still way too early to give predictions but we will…
I started doing these Exit Interviews a few years ago. The first interviews were of players who chose to transfer. I was curious about what they honestly thought about our University as they exited and wanted to hear some of their favorite memories. It was the equivalent of one last word. Now, this Exit Interview…
Chatarius “Tutu” Atwell came to Louisville from Miami Northwestern high school. Tutu came with all kinds of hype since he played quarterback where another beloved Card, Teddy Bridgewater, played. But Card fans knew he was recruited as an athlete/receiver and wasn’t expected to play QB. It didn’t matter what position he played, fans just…
We have watched a lot of great athletes come through the University of Louisville. Recently. We have started to see a trend of guys who are not only great athletes but guys of great character also. Dez Fitzpatrick is a guy who is both. You can spend two minutes talking to him and tell that…
The 2020 football season was one not like any other. In a normal year we would all be ready to gather with our families, celebrate the holidays and then start packing to head to a bowl game. But this isn’t a normal year. Because of all the Covid related restrictions, the CSZ photographers were not…
2020 was a year we all want to put behind us and it made sports seem exactly what they really are for us fans – entertainment and a distraction from real life. But college athletics is truly a business and pandemic or not, the show must go on. And so did the Nunnsense posts. Well,…
Jeremy Wahman – 34 – 10 Dez goes crazy on senior day 11 catches 209 yards 4 td….He finally outdoes Lavell Boyd’s big home game production and the Cards take advantage of the “not in game shape” Deacs. The fans rush the field and everyone lifts Satt up and forgives him and chants…. Wait till…
For me, this one is a little more personal. I’ve been following Dez from day 1. From his recruitment, to his first game, practices, media day interviews, jersey number change, spring games, talking with his dad before games and having him on the podcast, and everything in between, it’s been a great ride. As a…
Tutu Atwell announced today that he has decided to opt out of the 2020 football season with one game remaining so he can start getting ready for the NFL draft. In the 2019 season, Tutu set the Louisville record for receiving yards and tied the school total for receiving touchdowns in a season. He also…
Samuel Basden – 35 – 24 Syracuse is a bad football team and Louisville did what good football teams do to bad teams, blow them out of the water. Boston College isn’t a bad team, they are playing much better under a new head coach. Coach Satterfield recently came out and said he wasn’t leaving,…
From 2014 to 2019, Louisville and Syracuse have played every year. Louisville has the edge winning five and only losing the 2018 game at Syracuse. Over the six games Louisville has averaged scoring 44.3 points per game while surrendering and average of 24.8 ppg. Ironically, Louisville is a 19 point favorite in 2020. While we…
Jeremy Wahman – 31 – 17 Everyone will complain. We will do the best we can. It will be good enough. Almost a haiku there. I will call it one anyways. Jeff Nunn – 41 –21 For the first time in a while I feel confident saying that the Cards will win easily. Hassan Hall…
All of us at CSZ just wanted to say thank you and wish Javian best of luck in the NFL. We would all love to see him in a Cardinal uniform for longer, but we understand and respect his decision. Unfortunately, we were not able to photograph any games this season so here is are…
Jeremy Wahman – 30 – 24 I am going to speak this into existence. The Cards pick the ball off TWICE to match their entire seasons production and the second one seals the win as playing at Virginia has been very unkind in the past. Plus the curse of teams beating UNC but falling the…
Jeremy Wahman – 24 – 20 Defense starts out shaky again but pulls it together as the Cards go on a 17-0 run to finish the game. Cards match the entire seasons total of int’s with 2 and it’s time for another Cardinal party…. Jeff Nunn – 42 – 24 The Louisville offense we all…
Cards Hive – 31 – 27 The defense keeps up the momentum from last week while the offense finally hits on the big plays they’ve missed on all season. Jeremy Wahman – 30 – 28 Cards finally get everything clicking and hit a monster FG as time expires give them the win.
Jeff Nunn – 42 –24 When it come to skill players, Louisville matches up really well. But unfortunately the game is won or lost in the trenches and Notre Dame has a huge advantage there. Notre Dame is second in the nation in third down stops and Louisville has really struggled on third downs. Despite…
With Covid changing everything in fall sports, The ACC decided volleyball would play for four weeks with each team playing eight matches. The 15 league teams have been split into three pods, each with five teams: Boston College, Syracuse, Louisville, Notre Dame and Pitt Duke, North Carolina, NC State, Virginia and Virginia Tech Clemson, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Miami…
