It’s the middle of September and Pat Kelsey and company are still active in the transfer portal.

Cards Add Late Additon Hoopster

LJ Wells. So it is being reported by several responsible sources. 6-8 forward, who played at Northern Kentucky. Named plaintiff in Jefferson Circuit Court case. Averaged 15 and 7 last season. I know nothing more. — c d kaplan

U of L CardFile: Villanova

The Cards Aspire. New bright lights.  See the kids in the spotlight. Home town hero at the helm. Now’s not the moment to underwhelm. The Cardinals dispatched Villanova in orderly fashion, as they should have. 59-13. If the College Football Playoff in Jeff Brohm’s fourth season with the headset is the goal, and it most […]

Louisville Defeats Villanova, 59-13

I want to start by first giving credit the owner of this site, Mike Rutherford. I promise I’m not being a brown noser as I want to give Mike credit for calling exactly how this game would go. All week he said that he imagined this game would get off to an annoying start and […]

Highlights: Louisville 59, Villanova 13

Dominated like they were supposed to. Got starters some rest. Got the young guys some action. Didn’t suffer any major injuries (as long as KeyJuan is ok). Pretty much all the major boxes checked in this one. Massive, massive opportunity for this team in eight days. Think the fans will recognize the gravity of the […]

Five Plays: Ole Miss Fourth Quarter

The action continued to ratchet up in the fourth quarter with both teams trading big plays and touchdowns. The defenses both left a lot to be desired, but we did get a glimpse into how Mark Ivey will call a close game going forward. I went a little more rapid-fire with this post to fit […]

Five Plays: Ole Miss Third Quarter

If you are accustomed to reading this series over the last few years, you are aware that the title is merely an often-failed goal. This game really picked up in the third quarter, so I decided to clip all of the plays that felt relevant to the outcome of the game. We started to see […]

What To Watch For: Villanova Wildcats

CAN LOUISVILLE FIX THE ISSUES THAT LED TO THE LOSS LAST WEEK The Cards left Nashville with a loss on Sunday because they made too many mistakes. It sounds overly simplistic, but you can point to direct errors that led to points for Ole Miss and issues that kept points off the board for UofL. […]

Five Plays: Ole Miss Second Quarter

The Louisville football team held serve with Ole Miss in the first quarter before falling behind in the second. Mistakes continued to plague the team, but a few big plays kept this game close. While the team had great energy on both sides of the ball, this was the segment of the game where they […]

Opponent Breakdown: Villanova Wildcats Defense

The Villanova Wildcats’ defense has started the year off with mixed results after a rough loss to William & Mary, followed by a strong performance against Bucknell. The defense seemed to struggle with W&M’s mobile quarterback as he extended plays with his legs. This defense plays aggressively, which can bite them in some moments. The […]

Five Plays: Ole Miss First Quarter

Louisville went down to Nashville and battled Ole Miss to the final second on the clock. There were a lot of questions that the Cards needed to answer quickly, with the main one being how Lincoln Kienholz would play in his first career start. But UofL came out with a great plan, and they took […]

Opponent Breakdown: Villanova Wildcats Offense

Louisville starts their home slate this season on a Friday night against Villanova from the FCS ranks. The Wildcats finished last season 12-3 with a semifinal loss in the FCS playoffs.

Seedy K’s GameCap: Ole Miss

Last night’s was the first Cardinal football game since The Professor passed away. He loved college football. He loved the U of L Cards. His spirit force was strong with me during last night’s opener, a self inflicted 38-41 L to Ole Miss in the Music City Something or Another in NashVegas. Specifically felt his […]

Louisville comes up just short against No. 9 Ole Miss

Too many self-inflicted mistakes and a sensational second half from arguably the best quarterback in college football were the stories as Louisville opened its 2026 season with a last-second, 41-38 loss to No. 9 Ole Miss Sunday night in Nashville. New U of L quarterback Lincoln Kienholz rallied the Cards from a 38-24 fourth quarter […]

Seedy K’s Pigskin Prattle: Week I Felony Theft +++

Kyle Whittingham, you know the truth. You know time had run out, and that you’d been beaten by a four TD underdog intrastate directional in your Michigan debut. You know the 00:00 wasn’t a lie. You know it. I know it. Announcer Ian Eagle knows it. NBC rules guru Terry McAuley knows it. The feckless […]
