Louisville football continues to receive a healthy dose of early love from the premature college football top 25's that are being churned out by every sports network on the planet.
Among those networks is ESPN, which currently has Louisville at No. 24 for the season that won't kickoff for another nine months.
24. Louisville Cardinals
2015 record: 8-5, 5-3 ACC
Returning starters: 9 offense, 8 defense, 0 special teamsOutlook: The Cardinals were a bit of a disappointment after losing four of their first six games, but they might have turned the corner in the second half of the 2015 season.
