Louisville hosts FCS Samford seeking 1st win of the season

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) Louisville linebacker Keith Kelsey quickly sums up the Cardinals' mindset about their 0-3 start.

''Those three games are behind us,'' the junior captain said.

True, but Louisville hopes to use the lessons learned from a rugged 12-day stretch that left the team with its worst start in 31 years. The Cardinals seek a fresh start and their first win of the season Saturday against Football Championship Subdivision member Samford (2-1).

Louisville squandered chances in losses to then-No. 6 Auburn, Houston and No. 11 Clemson by a combined 13 points.
