By Dalton Ray–

Throughout the offseason, Louisville has been a frequent dark-horse pick to crash the College Football Playoffs. Writers, bloggers and analysts across the country are falling in love with quarterback Lamar Jackson. Add this to a Bobby Petrino coached team, big time players returning on defense and being in a power-five conference, and it’s easy to become infatuated with the Cardinals on paper.

Jackson will be more experienced at the quarterback spot, all skill players who touched the ball return and the line is more certain this year.
