Louisville football is off to a 4-0 start on the season after the Cardinals pulled off a wild comeback last weekend at Pittsburgh. Head coach Jeff Brohm and his team fell behind 17-0 in the first quarter, and the Cardinals had to turn to Miller Moss and Chris Bell, who had their best game of the season despite the slow and ugly start.
Now that a narrow victory is behind them, the Cardinals look forward to a Virginia team that is on cloud nine. UVA knocked off the former No. 8 Florida State in late-game overtime heroics. This boosted the Cavaliers to No. 24 in the latest AP Poll, and at the beginning of the season, this game appeared to be a trap game for Louisville as they prepared for their next game against Miami.
Now, with the rise of Virginia football, the Cardinals cannot look ahead to their bye week and the Hurricanes just yet. Louisville has yet to reach its full potential this season, and the fans are making it clear that this weekend's game is crucial. We know this team has the talent to go far this year, but they must come together, and it starts this weekend. This game can be a massive confidence booster and propel Louisville football for the rest of the season.
So, that said, here are three bold predictions for Louisville vs Virginia.
