This guy just SUCKS...I hope he NEVER gets another DC job again, ever. He has done nothing in his career as a DC, and just makes every D he has worse and worse with each game. Period.

I have never seen a team that I dislike more than this bunch of miscreations. They have had quit in them the entire year. I hope the new coach kicks about half their lazy, no good butts to the curb.

on the ESPN scroll that UCONN set an NCAA FBS record for points and yards allowed in a season. Surely we cannot be far behind. We are still playing, where is Kelley Dickey on this one?

This team will lose 4-6 games because of a under performing VJ King. For a scorer to miss a point blank shot is unacceptable without drawing a foul. The last series in regulation is indicative of what's missing on this team. Focus.No less than 2 or three players had chances to win in the closing seconds of the game. Nobody could finish. As a junior who was a scorer, he is non-existent when we need him. I know the kids are playing hard, but the juniors and seniors have to carry this team. They are not.

I say game but it may be a beating

As bad as I hate it, I don’t see us winning. This team completely checked out after the FSU game, I don’t think that this group could beat any P5 team at the moment.

Kittens 35
CARDS 24

I don't think we will catch UCONN as worst college scoring defense. However, the 601 yards allowed to a UK team averaging just 330 YPG just might nudge us into the Bottom 5 in Total Yards Allowed department.

Peace

I started following Louisville Football in 1983. I’ve watched every game since 1987. In all of those years I have never watched a more undisciplined team. I thought the Cooper and Kragthorpe years were bad but they didn’t come close to this mess. As an alumni and former athlete it is a disgrace to what this football team has done to the Louisville Cardinals name. Most of the players on this team do not deserve to wear the jersey.

Well, everything but the punter and field goal kicker.

Yes, the coaching sucked and they instilled no discipline (Petrino getting $14M is an f’ing crime btw...I sincerely hope he continues to donate a lot through his foundation). Anyways, the athletes aren’t off the hook on this one. The lack of pride and pathetic attitudes was embarrassing to see all season. This group is in for a rude awakening. And I hope they elect so e captains that will actually uphold and instill the honor that one should have in wearing that uniform. What a joke this season!

Any coach we hire is going to come in and tell them “You can’t get any worse, so you all are going to have to earn a spot on this team” then test their will to the extreme allowed nowadays.

Good (or bad) part is, a lot of the problems I see are coming from the seniors.

Purdue vs Indiana.

** Louisville vs. Kentucky Rivalry Game Thread **

University of Louisville interim head coach Lorenzo Ward announced that tight end Jordan Davis, running backs Javian Hawkins, Malik Staples and Dae Williams will be suspended for Saturday’s game versus Kentucky for a violation of team rules.

Kentucky's Derrick Baity Jr. broke out of warmups to taunt Louisville players with the "Ls Down" sign as they came onto the field. No one took the bait.

it makes me sick to watch this team just self destruct and give this game away .so fat they have cost us a 50 yard run, a touchdown called back, and when they scored they get called for unsportsmanlike conduct,setting KY up for an easy drive..they had Kentucky stopped and made 4 negative plays only to be sabotaged by a Moroni ctargeti g play .so instead of being down 21-10with the ball ,they trail by 18.what really chafes my butt is Msasour or whatever his name is. Getting patted on the back by his dumbass teammates .whoever the next coach is, better read these clowns the riot act and tell them They can just get the hell out of town if they do this crap . Cunningham should have been the starter the whole season .just goes to show you how stupid Petrino was sticking with Puma, and now Ward decides to punt on 4th and less than a yard to a reams
Who scores every time they get the ball. They will score again and the game will be over and we will.ay down and lose big .i hope that I am wrong

Have to laugh. No reason even taking this team seriously at this point.

Have a beer and detach yourself from the outcome for your own mental health.

Two pussified calls against us already, and nothing on #87 for Kentucky. Lol

seriously, wiped out big first down and killed us on d

Did anyone else here the announcer say this will be the last time you’ll see Jeff Brohm shake hands in the Perdue hat and sweat shirt.

You know, it's really funny seeing the arrogance by Purdue fans. Acting like they all are somehow even in the same stratosphere as the blue bloods of college football and not the bottom dweller that they really are. Acting like Purdue is such a better program than UofL, such an absolute joke. I'll be crushing that notion with this post. The stats don't lie:

Last Major Bowl Game:
UofL: 2016
Purdue: 2003

Bowl Games:
UofL: 22
Purdue: 18

Overall Conference Championships:
UofL: 8 (1970, 1972 (Split), 2000, 2001, 2004, 2006, 2011 (Split), 2012 (Split) )
Purdue: 8 (1918(Split),
1929, 1931(Split), 1932 (Split), 1943 (Split), 1952 (Split), 1967 (Split), 2000 (Split) )

Of course this is biased towards Purdue as UofL was an Independent from 1912 to 1962 as well as an Independent from 1975 to 1995 and therefore would not have any chance at a conference title. I am also not counting Purdue's 1891 - 1894 IIAA Conference Championships, a conference where Purdue was the ONLY MEMBER! Talk about pathetic!

Last Split Conference Championship:
UofL: 2012
Purdue: 2000

Last Outright Conference Championship:
UofL: 2006
Purdue: 1929

Last Major Bowl Win:
UofL: 2012 (Sugar Bowl)
Purdue: 1978 (Peach Bowl)

Heisman Trophy Winners:
UofL: 1
Purdue: NONE

Major Bowl Wins:
UofL: 3 (1991 Fiesta Bowl, 2007 Orange Bowl, 2013 Sugar Bowl)
Purdue: 2 (1966 Rose Bowl, 1978 Peach Bowl)

Wow, such tradition by Purdue. I'm particularly impressed by Purdue's pre-WW II prowess. I don't debate that the Purdue program has been around longer than the UofL program or that they had more success back before color TV's were a thing, but the arrogance and ignorance by Purdue fans is amazing.

Newsflash to all Purdue fans, and yes I'm going to yell this intentionally, NO RECRUIT IN THE COUNTRY GIVES A DAMN ABOUT WHAT PURDUE DID BACK IN THE 1920s, 1930s AND 1940s.

By every metric, the UofL program has been far superior to Purdue since Howard Schnellenberger came to UofL in the mid 80s. More conference championships, more bowl games, more bowl victories, more players in the NFL and a Heisman Trophy winner. Howard Schnellenberger told the UofL fanbase in the 80s that we were in a collision course with the National Championship, that the only variable was time. Who heard that very loudly back in that day, Jeff Brohm.

Jeff Brohm and the First Family of Louisville will be coming home to make good on that promise Howard Schnellenberger made all those years ago. I hope Purdue has some good candidates ready because it's a done deal. Everyone thinking reasonably knows that Jeff Brohm would have already signed a contract extension if he was actually staying at Purdue. But Jeff Brohm knows Purdue's history just like you all do, and that is that Purdue is a stepping stone job, nothing more.

It will be so wonderful to bring Jeff Brohm home to a program where he will win a National Championship and become one of the legends of college football! At least you all can say you had him for a few years, similar to Michigan State and Nick Saban, West Virginia and Bobby Bowden and Texas A&M and Bear Bryant.

Oh and BTW, our stadium blows Purdue's high school stadium away. I'm sure it's a decent stadium by college standards, but matriarch Momma Brohm will enjoy sitting on an individual comfortable seat over a cold bench, hahahaha.

We must do the OPPOSITE of everything we have done so far this year.

-- TACKLE the guy when we are close enough to hit him. Wrap the arms up, and hang on for dear life.

-- CATCH the ball when it hits our hands.

-- BLOCK the sumbitch in front of us, until we hear the whistle blow. Not love tap his ass, and let him go to wreak havoc on our ball carriers.

-- WAIT until the ball is snapped before moving. Both sides of the ball.

Louisville's women's basketball team tried to make it interesting for the fans yesterday in the Southpoint Shootout in Vegas against the Arizona State Sun Devils. They never led by more than five. Up by two at the half, they went into the fourth quarter and trailed 45-41 with eight minutes to play. Then, Dana Evans stepped up with three straight baskets, part of an 8-0 run to give the Cards a 49-45 lead.

Still unsure on whether the fans were sufficiently entertained or not, the Cards provided more nail biting opportunities when a 53-49 lead with 49 seconds to go -- after an Asia Durr jumper -- evaporated into a 56-56 tie with 10 seconds to play. Louisville committed three fouls in nine seconds, one of them on a three point attempt, and ASU sank all seven free throws in that short stretch.

It was Sam Fuehring, thankfully, who provided the last bit of fan entertainment and the game winner with 2.5 on the clock. Receiving an interior pass from Evans, she banked in a jumper from the paint. Then, Arica Carter stole the ASU in-bounds pass (without fouling) to secure the win. Sam ended up with 19 points and nine grabs to lead the Cards.

I'm pretty sure Coach Walz didn't enact the "foul 'em if you're near 'em" philosophy. A nervous stretch there at the end. I'm not sure who was howling more in disbelief or protest -- me or radio analyst Adrienne Johnson.. A nice touch by the production crew in giving us her and Nick Curran's audio call of the game (at times) while we were able to watch the action (in sync) ! on the internet.

Walz stayed pretty much with seven players most of the night. Durr, Fuehring, Carter, Jazmine Jones (a surprise starter -- the hip wasn't as bad as feared), Dunham, Shook and Evans. Yacine Diop played a little over one minute before leaving with a knee injury. She came back in later in the second half and almost immediately collapsed to the floor favoring the same knee -- no further information available on the extent of such. Mykasa Robinson had three valuable minutes at the end and showed some excellent defensive skills.

The Cards shot 24-59 for 40.7%. They were just 3-11 from three-point range. Louisville was outrebounded 41-40 and committed 16 fouls to the Sun Devils 12. They managed to win despite themselves, so to speak.

Besides Sam's 19, other double digit producers. Asia ended up with 14 and Dana Evans 11.

Sonya totaled four "bad words" three thrown pillows, two exaggerated eye rolls and two severe punches to Paulie's thigh in 40 minutes. He is expected to be available for tomorrow.

I expected Walz to make the infamous "are you not entertained?" speech concerning this top-20 matchup at the end of the game, but, most likely, he was probably just happy to get out of there with a win against a squad who came at the Cards in waves.

Coach Walz seemed to like the referee crew, a rarity anymore in WBB. Charli Turner Thorne, ASU head coach, did not seem as gratified or pleased with the stripes.

Walz and the crew return to play Saturday against the Hartford Hawks at 3:30 EST. Hartford fell 72-50 to the Southern Illinois Salukis yesterday in the Shootout.

A boat doesn’t move well with anchors down. Next coach gonna have to leave a few guys at the dock.
