Sweet. Unexpected. A derailment of a clobberation at the RR Yard. Louisville 41, Kentucky 0. In ping pong we’d call that a skunk. In the Commonwealth, we call it a beatdown, a gubernatorial landslide of epic proportions. Cards total of 41 matched that from last season’s Krogering shopping spree. Last eight quarters: U of L […]

JEFF BROHM NEEDS TO STICK WITH DEUCE ADAMS Louisville is going to go to a bowl game, but there is not much else left for this season outside of some statistical milestones and bragging rights. The issue for Brohm, at least in my humble opinion, is that next year’s roster has major gaps. Quarterback is […]

Mark Stoops is coaching for his job for what seems like the fifth straight year, but his team has shown up for him lately when things seemed to be at their worst. The Cats showed fight against a Tennessee team that punched them in the mouth before going on a three-game winning streak to put […]

The most underrated defensive coordinator in the country might just be Brad White. The Kentucky play caller has spent the last half of the decade putting the Cats in a position to win a good amount of games that they had no business winning. With the offense struggling through multiple coaching changes, White has been […]

Transparency in reportage: I wasn’t in the Yum! to cover the Thanksgiving Eve Cardinals game. Several reasons. 9:00 Tip off was at my normal bedtime. The game was against a Bottom Ten ranked school. Driving home late at night on one of the biggest bar nights of the year is not optimal for an old […]

To fill airtime during fallow sports times of the year, ESPN does this Ocho thing. “Sports” you’ve never heard of, or even conceptualized. How far up on a roof you can throw a beanbag, and some such. Stuff you made up in your backyard after school when you and your best pal were nine years […]

This started like the kind of affair the Cardinals have played many times through the years. After a big road W, a generally mundane let-down effort against an overmatched foe during the holidays, when a lot of fans stayed home to make some sweet potato pie. Early on, the team’s focus was less than. Missed […]

Just when you though the football season couldn’t possibly be more over, we hit a new rock bottom. And the scariest part about that is there’s still a Governor’s Cup to play for against a less than impressive Kentucky team. It could still get oh so much worse. I think the question we should start […]

Louisville played a pretty solid game for three quarters. Unfortunately after a spirited first half that ended with the Cards down 2 (35-37) they seemed to come out flat to start the second half. They only scored 6 points in the third quarter and despite some good runs in the fourth quarter they could never […]

Woeful as my prognostications have been this season — mediocrity in microcosm — never have I been as sure about the outcome beforehand, as I was in advance of Louisville heading to Dallas to take on SMU. This. Was. Inevitable. Were I a betting man — which I am not — I would have gone […]

Hunch feeling. That this 74-64 grind it out victory in the 101st game against Cincinnati will prove to be more meaningful as the season progresses. Many of U of L’s gnawing issue were again exposed. And overcome against a pesky Bearcat squad, though the flaws remain to be worked around. Important, it says here, was […]
