Opponent Breakdown: Cal Golen Bears Defense

Justin Wilcox made his career as a high-level defensive coordinator before taking over in Berkeley. His tenure started out okay, but the fanbase is starting to get a little restless after five straight losing seasons. His 2025 defense isn’t really the issue, but it hasn’t helped much in the goal of getting over the hump […]

Wednesday afternoon Cardinal news and notes

We’d be remiss if we didn’t start today with an acknowledgement of what transpired in the city last night. Seeing UPS planes on a daily basis and taking pride in a global shipping company residing in our city is in the DNA of each and every Louisvillian. Virtually everyone in this city has spent time […]

Seedy K’s Peerless Pigskin Prognostications: Week XI

It didn’t take long for my winning streak to evaporate. Tulane’s Green Wave fell at the Alamo midweek. An omen before I was even able to greet anyone with “Joyeaux la veille de la Toussaint.” The script was written. I didn’t need any admonition from Father Brennan, something like, “You’ll see me in hell, Seedy, […]

Opponent Breakdown: Cal Golden Bears Offense

No team has been talked about more after hot starts in the ACC over the last two years than Cal has. Last season, they raced to a 3-0 start before losing four straight games by about 10 total points. This season, they started off 3-0 again before being dominated by San Diego State 34-0. The […]

Cards fall to No. 1 UConn in season-opener, 79-66

The good news is that we begin yet another exciting Louisville women’s basketball season!  The bad news is that it was against the defending national champions UConn who seemed to have picked up where they left off last year.  Unfortunately the Cards followed a pattern that seems consistent when they’ve played the Huskies over the […]

Jeff Brohm weekly press conference quotes

(Opening statement) “First I’d like to say that it was great to have a great crowd at our away game at Virginia Tech. I thought our team saw them and could notice them, and it was a great turnout. [The fans] were into the game. They definitely showed out, just like they did at the […]

Seedy K’s GameCap: SC State

I want to dive into the difference between the American goal tending/ basket interference rule and that for the rest of the globe. That was in play in the singular “controversial” moment of U of L’s draw and quartering of South Carolina State, 104-45. Because there wasn’t much tension after this: On the Cards’ opening […]

That was the final margin on Monday evening as U of L trounced visiting South Carolina State, 104-45, in what was the sixth-largest […]

Gridiron Gab: Sunday Bloody Sunday

Yes, kids it’s a journey in the Wayback Machine for what has to be the theme music for this year’s cutthroat college football season. Bono stomping back and forth across the proscenium in the early days of both U2 and MTV, when it was actually, like, really, music television. Sunday Bloody Sunday indeed. Week after […]

Louisville basketball and the return of the old normal

It’s been just 12 months since I wrote and talked incessantly about the desire for the Louisville men’s basketball program to return to a state of normalcy. It might as well have been 12 years ago. “The Revivalists” will be remembered forever. Of this I have no doubt. The group won 27 games — more […]

Hoopaholic’s Gazette: Time of the Season

It was 8:16 am EST in Louisville, Kentucky, the forever and always epicenter of college basketball adoration. My coffee still brewing in the Mueller. In Rock Hill, South Carolina, the game clock read 13:38, and on the hardwood the home standing Winthrop Eagles led the visiting ASun favorite Queens Royals, 10-5. (I envisioned a hyperventilating […]

Louisville Defeats Virginia Tech, 28-16

This win, while feeling extra familiar, still tastes oh so sweet. Louisville began the game pretty much as expected. We got Vah Tech’s offense off the field in short order and then Isaac Brown rushed for an easy 52 yd score after gaining 10 yds on his first play from scrimmage. But that would be […]

Seedy K’s GameCap: Virginia Tech

In this the home of United Parcel Service, there is really but one appropriate inquiry to be made in the aftermath of another slog of a Louisville victory against a significantly lesser foe. That would be interimly-coached Virginia Tech, 28-16. Rhetorical as it may be, the question: “What can Brown do for you?” The obvious […]
