Louisville football: Way-too-early 2021 record prediction

Week 6 – Vs. Virginia

Date of game: Oct. 9

2020 record: 5-5

Best win: North Carolina

Key losses: TE Tony Poljan, LB Charles Snowden, LB Zane Zandier

Key returners: QB Brennan Armstrong, LB Nick Jackson, DB De’Vante Cross

Coach: Bronco Mendenhall

The skinny: Virginia may not overwhelm anyone with NFL talent in 2021, but they are a veteran-laden team that is just very frustrating to play against. They had their way with Louisville in their 2020 matchup. However, Virginia really lacks any leftover top end talent on the team. Louisville can get redemption coming off last season’s loss.

Prediction: WIN
