18. Kansas State Wildcats

The only two times that these schools have played one another in football was back in 2008 and 2006. As usual, they played one game in Louisville and one game in Kansas, however the Cardinals were able to come out with victories over the Wildcats in both match-ups.

Victor Anderson had a huge day in the last time these two met in 2008, where he ran for 176 yards and three touchdowns in Louisville’s 38-29 win at Papa Johns Cardinal Stadium.

Kansas State vs. Louisville stats, according to Sports Reference:

"Longest winning streak by Louisville: 2 games Most points scored by Louisville: 38 (Sep 17, 2008) Most points scored by Kansas State: 29 (Sep 17, 2008) Largest margin of victory by Louisville: +18 (Sep 23, 2006)"

Kansas State has always been one of those programs that can take down a big team at any given time. It would be interesting to see what they could do about Louisville in the future. However, I don’t think it’s likely they would be able to knock off the Cards.
