I have been out and away from the computer all day today, but I have been able to keep up with most of the news regarding UofL sports. So apparently Vegas set the odds for the next head coach of the Texas Longhorns, and Charlie Strong was the favorite at 2-1, which are great odds….

This week…..on 55….. The initial concept of 55 was: a) There was a ton of news that came out that weekend 2) it’s my favorite number (But Jeremy…I know). I would love to say the overwhelming positive response to it is a surprise, but it’s not. #Humble. I wanted to do something that would show CardNation…
Kendall Randolph is a 4-star cornerback from Lincoln High School in Tallahassee, Florida. He is listed at 5’11 and 175 pounds. Rivals rates him as the 26th best cornerback in the country and the 50th best player in the state of Florida. That is saying a lot. Louisville is the favorite for Randolph, and according…
WARNING: EXPLICIT LANGUAGE! When I first saw this, my first thought was it HAD to be posted. Then I heard the language and thought it shouldn’t. But since you have been warned (and it’s not the worst thing in the world) I just had to let you see it. I do apologize for wasting your…
This week…..on 55….. 55 is not a state of mind or a way to live life your life…yet. It is a place to state facts and shoot down gripes. Once again I share with you the 55 most ridiculous things I have heard, had to debate, or just thought about this past week. I worked nine straight…
Teddy Bridgewater is simply amazing. The great thing about him is he is so good off the field as well, very easy to root for. Thursday night at Cincinnati, we saw some of Teddy’s best moments. He cheered with UC students, escaped a 4th and 12 with an incredible run, and then threw a touchdown…
UofL’s official Bowl Central page It is finally official: the Louisville Cardinals will play in the Russell Athletic Bowl in Orlando, FL on December 28.

Copeland struggled with injuries early on in his career at UofL before finally putting together a full season in 2012. He has had a fractured foot, a torn meniscus, and a hamstring injury. He played only…

UL’s record vs Memphis at home is 12-9 with the Cards winning 9 out of the last 10 at home since 1986. These two teams last met in…
I am sitting here after a long days work and as always I can’t sleep. Seeing that Senior Day is coming up on Saturday I thought to myself, wonder what Memphians think about our upcoming rivalry game Saturday. For as long as I can remember, Memphis has been our rival through many, many years and…
I began to type this post, and had to delete the first paragraph and start over. I was opening the post with negativity and talking about what I expect the stadium to be like on Saturday afternoon. But that will do no good and make no difference. No need to be negative. I will just…

The newly anointed cardinal “BOOM” had hit all the major sports team at UofL this week. It was assumed we would see a boom on the Football field tonight and we did…kind of. The Cardinal D BOOMed when we needed them too as the D held high-powered Houston to under 200 total yards. On Offense Dominique…
