Like many University of Louisville football fans who have been following the Cards since the days of Coach Howard Schnellenberger or earlier, I appreciate the team’s successes not only because of the current gratification that a record-breaking win brings but also because of the journey I have seen the program take.
As I observed the latest step in that journey – the Cards’ first win over a top-2 ranked team – I wanted to take in every moment and savor it as long as possible.
