25. David Pollack and Kirk Herbstreit

These two analysts have had the Louisville football team’s backs the entire 2016 season. From week one, these guys have known how great Lamar Jackson really is and were willing to put their opinions out there early.

There have been so many people on ESPN that have critiqued the Cards all season, which is why it was so refreshing to have Herby and Pollack defending the Cardinals every week. For that, we all say thank you.

Take the time to send a tweet to these two guys over the Holidays and let them know your appreciation. Remember, these were the guys that were talking about how good this football team was when the entire country wanted to pump the brakes before the Florida State game.

We should all be thankful for these two, fine gentleman who know their football.
