Louisville football has a big game up in South Bend on Saturday and we have some questions.

It’s been a less-than-thrilling start to the 2020 season for Scott Satterfield and Louisville football, and things are not going to get any easier this week when the Cardinals head to South Bend to take on No. 4 Notre Dame.

After some much-needed time to cool off, we are left with a few important questions that not only the BRL writers have, but the fanbase has as a whole. No one enjoyed watching Louisville lose to Georgia Tech by double-digits for the second time in three years, especially when it came in a game that the Cards once led by 17 points.

It’s hard to predict or guess what happens from this point on, as it’s clear that this team isn’t quite at the level we though they were. Are they rebuilding? Is the season salvageable? Those are obviously the biggest questions, but there are others that will have to be answered as soon as possible if there’s any chance at righting the ship.

We do our best to give what we feel could be the top questions heading into this weeks crucial match-up.
