Louisville entered the 2020 season with high hopes but the start of the first game should have told us all that something wasn’t quite right. It started with a penalty on the first play of the game and the first drive ended with Logan Lupo dropping his first snap on a punt attempt and Louisville’s defense had to try to stop a touchdown from the 1-yard line. While the turnovers cast a dark cloud on the program last season, the lack of favorable field position is what caused a perfect storm.
The Louisville football team played at a disadvantage last year that was created completely by themselves.
