One Day Until...




Field Hockey squares off against Harvard in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. The Cards and Crimson are set to start at 2:30 p.m. ET., in Ann Arbor, Mich. As of right now, this match appears that it will be aired on www.NCAA.com. We will notify if the viewing location changes.

Daryl can break this down for you more tomorrow, but Harvard enters the match at 15-1 on the year and a perfect 7-0 mark in the Ivy League. Since the Ivy League did not play a conference tournament, the Crimson earned the automatic bid.

The two teams have never played each other before.

Volleyball hosts Georgia Tech. Playing in their first match ever as the #1 team in the country, Louisville welcomes #14 Georgia Tech to LNFCU Arena at 7:00 p.m. The Cards took a 3-0 sweep in Atlanta back on Oct. 3, and will hope to get another sweep.

Louisville currently holds a two-game advantage over Pitt and Georgia Tech, both who are 12-2 in conference play, so a win would build that cushion to three games over at least one of those opponents with four matches remaining in the season after.

Like the remainder of the season, this match is sold out so hopefully we'll see a true full house Friday night.




Women's Basketball officially starts their season. The #6 Cards will travel to Sioux Falls, S.D., to square off against #25 Arizona at a neutral site. Tip-off is set for 4:30 p.m., ET, and will be aired on ESPNU.

Arizona is reigning National Runner-Up, but lost some key players from that squad. The Cards showed great promise on both offense and defense during their exhibition against Union University (Tenn.) and will look to continue that in their true season opener.





No Cardinal Couple Radio Podcast


With a noon kickoff time for Louisville Football this Saturday, it put a damper in our regularly scheduled Cardinal Couple Radio Podcast. With Paulie and I both in attendance for the game and Daryl out for other reasons, we decided to take the week off.

Hey, with the overlap between fall and winter sports, we're pretty busy, so sometimes a day off (if that's what you can call it for some of us) is much needed. We plan to be back next Saturday.


Happy Thursday and Go Cards!
