Louisvilles Turnaround Gives Jeff Brohm Fans A Reason To Believe

Louisville spent the second half looking like a different team, and that was the encouraging part of a game that began with plenty of uneven moments. After a slow start, the Cardinals settled in on both sides of the ball, with the offense finding more rhythm and the running game becoming a real factor as multiple players reached the end zone.

Jeff Brohms decision to hand playcalling duties to the offensive coordinator added a new wrinkle to how Louisville operated, and the results were hard to miss once the game turned. The defense also answered after a critical stop, tightening up enough to keep the opponent from moving the ball the way it had early and giving the Cardinals a stretch of control they could build on.

Karter Knox Is Already Fueling Louisvilles Kentucky Confidence

Louisvilles roster overhaul has already given Pat Kelsey plenty to sort through as he gets ready for the 2026-27 season, and the first real checkpoint comes Oct. 21 with an exhibition against Kansas. The Cardinals have brought in eight transfers, including a few names that should help raise the ceiling right away, with Flory Bidunga, Jackson Shelstad and Karter Knox standing out among the additions.

Knox, in particular, has added an edge to the conversation around the rivalry with Kentucky. With his brother Kevin Knox II having played for the Wildcats, he has already signaled plenty of confidence that Louisville can change its recent fortunes in the series and snap an eight-game road losing streak, a familiar burden that still hangs over the matchup. For a team trying to establish a new identity under Kelsey, that kind of early belief matters almost as much as the talent itself. [Read more 🡒]

Louisville's Ground Game Is Becoming The Story Fans Can't Ignore

Louisvilles ground game keeps building into more than just a useful piece of the offense. Isaac Brown drew ACC Running Back of the Week and ESPNs Heisman Winner of the Week honors after his standout performance against Florida State, while Lance Robinson was recognized as both ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week and Outland Trophy National Player of the Week. Between Browns burst on multiple long touchdown runs and his work on a kickoff return, the Cardinals got the kind of all-around spark that can change how a defense has to play them.

Jeff Brohm has made it clear the running game needs to stay at the center of what Louisville wants to do on offense, and the recent awards only reinforce why. When a back is breaking explosive plays and an offensive lineman is piling up national recognition, it says the Cardinals are doing more than just surviving on the ground. For a team trying to keep momentum rolling, that kind of balance can quickly become the story opponents have to prepare for every week. [Read more 🡒]
