Louisville sports were as difficult to watch as they have ever been in 2018. We’ve discussed ad nauseam the ridiculousness that was this past year in sports, but there was another rarity that the Louisville basketball achieved: The Cards went an entire year without being ranked in the AP Top 25 (411 days to be exact).
After the Cards fell to Seton Hall at home on December 3rd, 2017- one of many soul-crushing losses that Louisville has been dealt in the past few years- Louisville, under interim head coach David Padgett fell out of the top 25 rankings on December 5th.
