3. Isaac Brown
The 2024 ACC Rookie of the Year has picked up right where he left off. Brown has 230 rushing yards on just 18 carries in two games, which is an incredible 28 yards per carry.
Brown was named to the Paul Hornung Award Watch List before this season, and after two weeks, he is making a strong case for this award. With the way Louisville football struggled to move the ball through the air in their last outing, it only makes sense to rely on your star back.
His carries will vary on how the game is going, but look for Brown to be featured heavily in the first half. Bowling Green also let up 139 rushing yards to Liberty in their last game. Feeding Brown with carries could slow the game down in the Cardinals' favor and throw off the Falcons. Brown is currently the rushing yards leader in the ACC, and Louisville fans should expect another 100-yard game from their running back.
