Louisville’s defensive struggles continued Saturday in a 31-28 loss to NC State, dropping the Cards to 2-3 overall and 1-2 in ACC play. Following the game, Jeff Brohm was asked about the state of his defense and made it clear that what Louisville has been doing isn’t good enough. “We’ve got to make some changes and do some things to improve our defense.” Brohm added that getting it corrected falls on him as the head coach. NC State finished with 493 yards of offense, including 373 through the air. After another tough loss, what changes do you want to see Louisville make defensively?

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Tague Davis is the 2026 ACC Player of the Year. And honestly? It wasn’t even a debate. The sophomore first baseman from Louisville is putting together one of the greatest offensive seasons in college baseball HISTORY. He’s the national leader in home runs, RBI, and total bases and he didn’t just break the ACC single-season home run record, he shattered it, 34 and counting after breaking the record that Florida State legend J.D. Drew set back in 1997 . Through 53 games, Davis is slashing .364 with 34 home runs and 93 RBI and nobody is close. 19 of his 34 home runs have come in ACC play alone the most by any ACC player in the last 10 years. He has 6 multi-homer games. 14 home runs with an exit velocity over 110 mph. And nearly half of his homers have come with two strikes. That’s not just power that’s ELITE! As a freshman in 2025, he hit .283/.390/.571 with 18 home runs and 52 RBI, breaking Louisville’s freshman home run record and leading the ACC. He came back his sophomore year and went nuclear. His father Ben Davis was the 2nd overall pick in the 1995 MLB Draft. The bloodline is real. ACC Player of the Year. Golden Spikes frontrunner. And he’s only a sophomore. The Ville’s got one. And has to keep him! 🔴⚫️⚾️

Kelsey responded: “do we feel pressure to do it because of the rat poison or do we feel pressure to do it becuase it would be really good for our program and our team?…. So NO! to the first one, because we don’t listen to rat poison …. Do we understand winning a big game on the road against a really good team helps our overall makeup and resume, YES!…” Kelsey made it clear. The noise does not matter. The opportunity does.
