Gridiron Gab: Quotes & A Smidge of Hoops

It’s that binary time of the year.  When we try again to watch football with one eye, basketball with the other.  Sometimes it works, sometimes not.  Oh for the days of picture in picture. OK, not really. There are laptops and iPads and phone apps, and we seem to be able to manage. First, football. […]

Cards roll past Northern Kentucky

Much like the UConn game Louisville started off flat and fell behind early in the game.  Luckily they were playing Northern Kentucky instead of UConn so even though NKU was a formidable opponent they didn’t create enough separation that the Cards weren’t able to overcome it when things finally got rolling in the second half.  […]

Seedy K’s GameCap: California

I played but a single year of organized football, as a JV DL at Atherton HS. More than a half century ago, when players wore hip and knee pads and helmets that were a concussion waiting to happen, in the age of the Straight T-Formation, when they still gave us salt tablets in the August […]

What To Watch For: Cal Golden Bears

LOUISVILLE’S PASSING GAME COULD BE BOOM OR BUST The Cards have struggled to pass the ball for most of the season, with teams consistently bringing pressure to make things harder for Miller Moss.

Seedy K’s GameCap: Jackson State

Two exhibition seasons in — one literal, one figurative — and, like 99 44/100% of the programs in the land, the University of Louisville has a few things figured out, and a lot more questions left to find answers to.

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.

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.
