From U of L: A day after the Louisville women’s basketball team found out it was hosting the 1st and 2nd rounds of the 2026 NCAA Tournament, the full field was announced at the Selection Show on Sunday night. The Cardinals (27-7, 15-3 ACC) earned a No. 3 overall seed and will face off against […]
The Cards are dancing. We share out initial thoughts on Louisville’s draw. Direct link here.
Louisville will look to win a game in the NCAA Tournament for the first time in nearly a decade when it takes on American Conference champion South Florida on Thursday in Buffalo. The contest between the East Region’s 6-seed and 11-seed will tip-off at 1:30 p.m. ET on TNT. South Florida enters the March Madness […]
I guess it can’t be any worse than last year (knocks on every piece of wood in house). Final prediction is the same as last night: Cards get a 6-seed playing the winner of a First Four game. I’ll throw a dart and say Miami University vs. Missouri. Feel free to toss out your own […]
Ok, so I know that last year proved that we should never, ever, ever try and predict anything that the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee is about to do, BUT … I mean, we have to, right? What’s the fun in not. About 95 percent of the updated bracket projections on the internet have Louisville as […]

In a battle between a couple of evenly matched teams, it can take but a quick interlude of momentary superiority for separation. On the court, peripherals factor to a degree. That one team is without its best player with injury. That the other wants revenge for losing less than a week ago in its final […]
Five days after shooting the lights out and taking great care of the basketball in a 92-89 road win over Miami, Louisville failed to replicate either of those efforts in a 78-73 loss to the Hurricanes that ended U of L’s run in the ACC Tournament. The Cardinals, who shot 12-for-24 from three in the […]

Transcript: PAT KELSEY: A lot of credit to SMU. Andy is a really good coach. We played down at their place a couple weeks ago, and they just kicked the crap out of us. So ton of respect for them. Their offensive firepower is as good as anybody in the country. Proud of our guys. […]
I walk 47 miles of barbed wire/ I use a cobra-snake for a necktie/ I got a brand new house on the roadside/ Made from rattlesnake hide/ I got a brand new chimney made on top/ Made out of a human skull/ Now come on take a walk with me, Arlene/ And tell me, who […]

Leave it to college b-ball’s best play by play guy Ian Eagle to put it in perspective. During Sunday’s Great Lakes State Wolverines vs. Sparty take-no-quarter Gettysburg-ish bloodbath, Eagle proclaimed, “We’ve got here a serious case of March.” There’s no vaccine. Thank heavens. * * * * * Since my readership consists mostly of the […]
