Louisville Cardinals Football 1991 Bowl Champs Vintage Heavyweight TeeOn the first day of 1991, the Louisville Cardinals dominated the Alabama Crimson Tide at the Fiesta Bowl. The Cards, led by Browning Nagle at quarterback, took a commanding 25 0 lead in the first quarter, and ultimately won the game 34 7. The game also holds off the field significance; both the Tide and the Cardinals paid tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as a display of unity after the state of Arizona voted down a state holiday in his memory.
