Why Louisville football fans shouldn’t take the next two weeks for granted

When I was in college, I drove by Cardinal Stadium nearly every day.

Growing up a huge University of Louisville sports fan, it has always been easy to love the rich tradition of Louisville basketball. However, being a Louisville football fan takes patience and a true understanding of the city and program’s identity.

Louisville will always be basketball-first, at least during my lifetime, and everything else will be a distant second. That’s who we are; That’s our culture.

However, for me, there will always be a nostalgia around Louisville football, and particularly around Cardinal Stadium, that is unparalleled by anything else in my life.
