I know I’m not the only one that feels this way, but I know many of you will simply read the headline and then comment on this article without reading it; and not fully understanding what I mean by my headline. Some of you will read the headline and assume that I meant he missed…

I know that every one of you have seen the Honored Jerseys that adorn Cardinal Stadium. I look up at those honored Jerseys every single time I am in that stadium. Often times I find myself reminiscing about the days that some of those guys played. Contrary to popular belief at CSZ, I am not…
This week’s photo gallery is one of re-edits. Many of these pictures did not appear in the original game photo galleries of the game in which they were taken. Some of them did, but not edited. Most of these I edited at a later date. You may recognize some of them that I posted individually…
One thing we at CSZ love to bring you are photo galleries of your favorite Cards and every Cardinal sporting event that we can. Unfortunately, Covid prevented us from photographing most everything this past year or so. However, I was able to photograph a track meet, a softball game and a soccer match. JK was…
Normally, around late January to early February, I have a horse I really love and by late April, I know if that horse will win or not. But this isn’t a normal year. A few short weeks ago I was about 90% sure it would come down to just how much Life Is Good would…
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…
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,…
There are quite a few players I have my eye on to have an absolute great year. Some I’ve been watching even before they stepped on campus and a few that I missed early but have watched progress rapidly. It stands to reason that all the guys on defense should improve simply by having the…
I’m taking a look at the Louisville football schedule for the 2020 season. I will attempt to rank the schedule from the toughest games to the easiest. I’m writing this assuming the season will be played as scheduled. But if the ACC goes to a 10 game conference only schedule, Louisville would lose games against…
While I remain optimistic that the college football season will be played as scheduled, it’s looking more and more like the season will be altered in a dramatic way. With only about 7 weeks until the college football season officially kicks off, time is definitely not on the side for those of us wanting a…
MVP is an abbreviation for Most Valuable Player and is defined as an award given to a player in sports who is judged most important to the sport, team, or game. However, judging is subjective. How do you decide who is the most valuable throughout the season? Is it the person with the best stats? If so,…
To answer the question as simple as possible, I would say “nobody knows for sure.” No matter what anyone tells you, there is no definite plans to change, alter, adjust, transform, modify, revise, mutate, or cancel the college football season. I’m not saying changes aren’t coming, but nothing has been officially announced. Even though there…
This week I am really missing football so I wanted to just go back and reminisce of the final game of the season. I think the not having baseball to occupy my time has really got me missing football more than ever. Usually I start getting heavy into my football research beginning in June. But…
Depending on who you talk to, there may or may not be a college football season. I’m going to tell you that there will absolutely be a 2020 college football season. Will it be played as scheduled? I’m not certain about that but I am certain in will be played. Maybe not a full 12…
University of Louisville junior offensive lineman, Mekhi Becton, was selected by the NY Jets in the 2020 NFL draft. He was the 11th player selected in the draft and the third offensive lineman selected. So what will his rookie deal look like when he signs?
In mid December, 2019, just two weeks before the Cards took on Mississippi State in the Music City Bowl, coach Satterfield announced the team awards at the 2019 Football Celebration. When Coach Satterfield arrived at Louisville he found, “a group of players who were down, but eager to win.” He spent months, as he says,…
Here are my top 10 captures from the 2019 football season. A really enjoyable season that ended with a 38 – 28 Music City Bowl victory over Mississippi State. It’s really hard to just pick 10 because each moment is special in its own way. They are numbered 10 – 1 but in reality there…
An anonymous NFL scout said the following about why they ranked Becton lower than most: “Know why I have him fifth? Because he loves to cook and eat more than he loves frigging football … He can be a freak now. You could hit on him. You know what he is? He’s Trent Brown (Las Vegas Raiders…
I’ve answered this question many times over the last several weeks. I’m no future teller or even a great prognosticator but yet people still ask me. I assume they just want to know what I am hearing from the people I talk to from the College Football Writers Association of America and UofL. Or they…
Over the past eight years, Louisville’s defensive rankings have been going the wrong direction. In my opinion, Louisville hit rock bottom in the 2018-19 season where they finished ranked 122 out of 129 division 1 schools. Just five seasons prior, Louisville finished the season in the number one spot. What was the reason for the…
