CARDINALS FACE DEFENDING NATIONAL CHAMPIONS TO OPEN 100TH SEASONnThe University of Louisville will celebrate its 100th season of competition with a neutral-site game against Alabama — the 2017 national champions — in the Camping World Kickoff Game at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Fla. The game will be televised on ABC with Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit, and Maria Taylor calling the action. nThe Cardinals return 15 starters from last season’s team that finished 8-5 and dropped a 31-27 decision to Mississippi State in the TaxSlayer Bowl. Despite losing Lamar Jackson, the 2016 Heisman Trophy winner, the Cardinals return seven starters on offense, headlined by wide receiver Jaylen Smith, who caught 60 passes for 980 yards and seven touchdowns last season. Offensive tackle Geron Christian was a third-round selection by the Washington Redskins, but the Cardinals bring back four starters on the offensive line in offen-sive tackle Mekhi Becton, guards Lukayus McNeil and Kenny Thomas, and center Robbie Bell.nSophomore linebacker Dorian Etheridge — the first true freshman to lead the Cardinals in tackles a year ago — is one of five returning starters on defense. The Charleston, W. Va. native, recorded 83 tackles in 13 games. Junior defensive end Jonathan Greenard is another highly productive returner after leading the team with 15.5 tackles for loss and being second with 7.5 sacks. FOURTH APPEARANCE VERSUS NO. 1 TEAMnAlabama opens the 2018 season as the preseason No. 1 team in the country, the fourth time in school history the Cardinals face the top-ranked team in the Associat-ed Press Poll, and the first since squaring off at home versus Penn State in 1997.

EXPERIENCE AMONG THE OFFENSIVE LINEn Louisville returns 65 career starts among offensive linemen on the 2018 roster. n Senior guard Lukayus McNeil has started a team-high 34 games in which he has played during his first three seasons at Louisville. n The Cardinals have at least three returning starts at each position projected along the offensive line, except for the other tackle position alongside Mekhi Becton. n Guard Kenny Thomas has made 19 career starts, 2017 starting center Robbie Bell made 13 starts, Becton returns with 10 career starts under his belt, and projected starting center Cole Bentley made three starts. 20-POINT STREAKn The Cardinals enter the 2018 opener with an impressive streak of scoring 20 or more points in a game. Louisville has tallied 20 or more points in 13-straight games, all-coming during the 2017 season. The last time the Cardinals were held to fewer than 20 points in a game was the 2017 finale — a 29-9 loss to LSU in the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl.n The Cardinals have reached the 20-point plateau in 30 of the last 32 games, dating back to the 2015 season. PASS READIES FOR FIRST STARTn Jawon Pass will be the first quarterback to make his first start since 2015. Since 1986, Louisville quar-terbacks making their first career start are 13-7 in that initial game as QB#1. Nine of the last 13 Louisville quarterbacks have gained a victory in their first start, but a pair of first-round draft picks have not fared well in their initial starts. n Lamar Jackson, a first-round selection this year by Baltimore, went 17-for-27 for 168 yards and two inter-ceptions in a loss at home to Houston in 2015. Teddy Bridgewater, 2013 first-round pick by Minnesota, went 20-for-29 for 221 yards in a 13-7 loss to Marshall.

He replaces Lamar Jackson, who started the last 27 games at quarter-back and literally re-wrote the UofL record book.n Pass has appeared in five career games, all in relief, and played well in limited snaps. The Carver High product passed for 238 yards and two touchdowns, while completing 69.7 percent of his passes.n In his first career game, Pass completed 5-of-8 passes for 75 yards in the 42-3 win over Kent State. The following week, Pass produced his top performance, throwing for 115 yards and a touchdown, while rushing nine times for 36 yards and a score in a win over Murray State. COULD DAWKINS MAKE BIGGER JUMP IN 2018?n The Cardinals are deep and talented at wide receiver, but one that could make a bigger jump in his third season is junior Seth Dawkins. The Columbus, Ohio, native has caught 53 passes for 833 yards and five touchdowns in 24 career games. After catching 11 passes as a true freshman in 2016, Dawkins grabbed a career-high 42 receptions for 642 yards and four scores. He averaged 15.3 yards per reception — finishing third with 10 receptions of over 25 yards.n Dawkins has caught a pass in 15-straight games dating back to the 2016 season, which is the high-

est mark on the team. The true junior caught a per-sonal-high five passes for 133 yards and one score — a career-long 65-yard catch on the road versus NC State. The 6-foot-3 wideout tallied three games with five receptions and four other contests with four catches. NATION’S MOST DANGEROUS OFFENSEn Behind head coach Bobby Petrino, Louisville’s offense was arguably the most explosive unit in the country last year. The Cardinals finished second the nation with 74 plays from scrimmage of at least 10 yards sixth with 92 plays of at least 20 yards and tied for eighth with 10 of over 60 yards. n In terms of running the football, the Cardinals ranked ninth nationally with 109 rushes of 10 or more yards, 12th with 33 runs of at least 20 yards and were tied for sixth with 20 runs of 30 or more yards.nLouisville is fifth in the nation with 155 pass plays of 10 yards or better and tied for ninth with 57 passes of 20 yards or better.n Similarly, wide receiver Jaylen Smith finished with two catches of 70-plus yards last season, tied for eighth nationally. He caught a 75-yard touchdown pass versus North Carolina and a 72-yard strike ver-sus Syracuse.

NO TURNOVERS = VICTORIESnLouisville is 12-1 under head coach Bobby Petrino when playing an entire game without committing a turnover, including a perfect 3-0 mark during the 2017 campaign. The Cardinals played error-free football in each of the last two wins over Syracuse and Kentucky to close out the regular season.nThe Cardinals have won 19-straight games when it fails to commit a turnover. The Cards have not lost a game with no turnovers since a 35-27 loss at home to Cincinnati on Oct. 15, 2010.nDuring his eight seasons as head coach, Bobby Petrino owns a +20 advantage turnover margin despite being at -7 this season. OPENING DRIVE SUCCESSnThere’s always a method to head coach Bobby

Petrino’s madness to take the ball to open the game and it’s usually translated into points for the Cardi-nals.nThe Cardinals received the opening kick 11 times in 13 games last season, and scored seven times — six touchdowns and one field goal. Louisville was 6-1 last year when scoring on the opening drive.n In the win over Kentucky in the regular-season finale, the Cardinals drove 75 yards on seven plays for a touchdown in the 44-17 win over the Wildcats. TWO-YEAR OFFENSIVE RUN n Offense has been the forte of head coach Bobby Petrino, and the Cardinals have been one of the best offensive teams over the last two seasons. The Cardinals head into the 2018 season as one of only two programs (Oklahoma)to finish in the top five nationally in total offense over the last two seasons — finishing third in both years.n Last season, the Cardinals averaged 544.9 yards per game en route to an 8-4 record, besting the 532.7 mark during the 2016 campaign. Over the last two seasons, the Cardinals have averaged 538.8 yards, which is second only to Oklahoma, which totaled an average of 567.6 yards per game over that span.n The large number of total offense has turned into a high volume of scoring, tallying 1,019 points, an average of 39.7 points per game. In 2016, the Cardinals finished tied for sixth in the country with an average of 42.5 points per game, while finishing11th in 2017 at 38.1 points per contest.nThe Cardinals have totaled over 500 yards of total offense 17 times in 26 games and over 600 yards on seven different occasions.

SMITH CLOSES IN 2,000 YARDSn Senior wide receiver Jaylen Smith enters 2018 as one of the nation’s top wide receivers after miss-ing a 1,000-yard season a year ago. Despite missing three games last year, Smith caught 60 passes for 980 yards and seven touchdowns, while averaging 16.3 yards per catch. A first-team all-ACC performer, Smith totaled four 100-yard receiving games, record-ing a career-high nine receptions for 183 yards and one touchdown in a 47-35 win over North Carolina. The Pascagoula, Miss., native opened the year with 117 yards on eight receptions versus Purdue, caught six passes for 118 yards in a loss to Boston College,

and ended the year with 107 yards in a loss to Missis-sippi State.n In 36 career games, Smith has caught 116 pass-es for 1,955 yards and 14 touchdowns. He needs 78 yards to pass James Quick for 10th-place on the school’s career receiving yards list and ranks fourth in school history by averaging 16.85 yards per re-ception. In the last two seasons, Smith has recorded 29 plays of over 20 yards, including 16 in 2017. He caught a 75-yard touchdown versus North Carolina in the second game of the season.n With five career 100-yard receiving games, Smith needs one more to move into a tie with Ja-mie Asher for 10th place on the school’s all-time list. Smith’s 14 career touchdowns are one shy of tying him for ninth place on the school’s career list. 200 IS NEARLY A LOCKn Under head coach Bobby Petrino, the Cardinals have been almost unbeatable when rushing for more than 200 yards in a game. The Cardinals have totaled more than 200 yards on the ground in 55 games, posting a remarkable 49-6 record in those games.n Louisville was 6-1 last season when rushing for over 200 yards in a game when they set the school record for rushing yards with 3,145 and finished 15th nationally. n Since returning in 2014, the Cardinals have amassed a 22-4 mark when picking up more than 200 yards on the ground.n In his first stint with the Cardinals from 2003-06, Petrino’s squad went 27-2 when hitting the mark. The Cardinals ranked 12th in 2006, eighth in 2004 and 10th in 2003 on the ground. MAKING MOST OF EACH PLAYn Not only did the Cardinals make a number of big plays last year, they picked up chunks of yards on each play. The Cardinals averaged 7.39 per play in 2017, which ranked third nationally behind Oklahoma and UCF.n In setting a new school mark, the Cardinals broke the old mark of 7.24, which was set during the 2004 season — one where the team finished 11-1



under head coach Bobby Petrino.n The Cardinals averaged better than 6.0 yards per play in 11 games, posting a season-best 10.1 yards per play in a win over Syracuse. SCORING POINTSn The Cardinals have been one of the most prolific scoring offenses over the last two seasons. Louisville finished 11th in 2017 and sixth in 2016 in points per game. Over a 26 game span, the Cardinals totaled 1,048 points, tallying 495 points last season and 553 in 2016. The 553 points ranks second all-time in school history and the 495 are the fourth most.n Over the last two seasons, the Cardinals have combined to score 1,048 points, which is the sev-enth-most in the country over the last two years. Oklahoma scored 1,203 points since 2016 and Mem-phis produced 1,097 points over the same period.n Louisville has scored over 30 points in 20 of the last 26 games dating back to the 2016 campaign. LOOKING FOR MORE OUT OF THE BACK-FIELD

n The Cardinals had the ultimate running back at the quarterback position in Lamar Jackson, who set the school record with 4,132 yards on the ground. With the former Heisman Trophy winner now in the National Football League, the Cardinals will look for a more traditional approach in running the football. The Cardinals return only 482 yards from the running back spot this season.n Redshirt sophomore Dae Williams is the top returning runner, totaling 235 yards and three scores in 2017. Coming off a knee injury that caused him to miss seven games, Williams rushed for a career-best 88 yards on 15 carries in a win over Virginia and add-ed 41 yards in his first collegiate game in a win at Florida State.n Redshirt junior Trey Smith added 124 yards in limited action, redshirt freshman Colin Wilson rushed for 69 yards in three games before he tore his ACL and missed most of the 2017 season.

FITZPATRICK LOOKS TO TOP ROOKIE SEA-SONn Redshirt sophomore Dez Fitzpatrick answered the call as a rookie in 2017, and bigger things are ex-pected during his second season. Fitzpatrick tied for second among freshmen nationally with nine touchdown receptions and was tied for 25th among all players, while also being tied for first in the ACC with Greg Dortsch of Wake Forest.n Fitzpatrick totaled 37 receiving yards versus Ken-tucky, giving him 699 yards for the year and pushing him into 11th on the ACC’s freshman list. He ranked second in school history among freshmen in receiving yards. His 699 yards were the 12th-most in the ACC in 2017.nAfter catching two passes against Kentucky, Fitz-patrick finished second the team lead with 45 receptions for 699, while averaging 15.5 yards per catch — the fourth-highest on the team.

n In the loss to Boston College, Fitzpatrick finished the game with a game-high seven catches for 127 yards and one touchdown — the second 100-yard receiving game of his career.n Fitzpatrick owns the school’s freshman record for touchdown receptions with nine. His nine touchdown receptions, tied for second most in a season by a fresh-man in ACC history, are the most since Clemson’s Arta-vis Scott in 2014nIn the loss to NC State, Fitzpatrick had career highs of 10 catches and 134 yards. His 10 receptions tie Ibn Green’s freshman record, first set against North Caroli-na on Nov. 9, 1996. It is the most receptions by a UofL player since Jamari Staples had 10 versus Wake Forest in 2015.n Fitzpatrick’s 134 receiving yards were the most by a freshman since 2005, when Mario Urrutia had 138 against Florida Atlantic on Oct. 1. Fitzpatrick’s receiving yards ranks fourth among all UofL freshmen.n Appearing in his first 11 career games, Fitzpat-rick caught a least one touchdown pass in six games, and had two in wins versus North Carolina and Murray State. In the win over North Carolina, Fitzpatrick scored on receptions of nine and 30 yards, while catching four passes for 78 yards. He caught two passes for 30 yards and a 30-yard touchdown in the loss to Clemsonn In the opener against Purdue, Fitzpatrick, in his first collegiate game, caught four passes for 95 yards and a score. POTENT TRIO OF WIDE RECEIVERSn The Cardinals expect to be extremely potent on offense this season, headlined by an exciting group of wide receivers in Jaylen Smith, Dez Fitzpatrick and Seth Dawkins. The trio combined to catch 147 receptions for 2,321 yards and 20 touchdowns last year — averaging 15.8 yards a reception.n Smith, who caught 60 passes for 980 yards last season, ranked highly among the national lead-ers — finishing ninth with an average of 98.0 yards per game and 20th with a total of 6.0 receptions per game. Fitzpatrick was the second-best wideout, total-ing 45 catches for 699 yards and nine touchdowns, which were the 25th-most in the country.n The trio combined to total 37 receptions of over 25 yards, including eight touchdowns. Smith scored on the longest pass of the season — a 75-yard pass from Lamar Jackson against North Carolina.n The three players totaled seven 100-yard re-ceiving games, including a season-high 183 yards from Smith in the 47-35 win over North Carolina. GETTING FIRST DOWNSn Last season, the Cardinals were one of the best in stringing first downs together, finishing fourth in the country and first in the ACC in first downs per game with an average of 27.1 per game. n The 352 first downs were a school record, top-ping the previous record of 325, which was estab-lished in 2016.

Cardinals in the NFLLOUISVILLE KNOWS OFFENSEn Louisville is riding a scoring streak that spans 226 games, which dates back to the 2000 season — a 32-0 loss at Florida State on Sept. 23, 2000.n Louisville and Oklahoma are the only two schools in the country to finish in the top five in total offense in the last two seasons. The Cardinals placed third in the country the last two seasons, averaging better than 532.0 yards per game — including 544.9 yards per game last season, which is the second-best mark in school history.n Louisville has scored over 40 points regularly under head coach Bobby Petrino. In 102 games, the Cardinals have eclipsed the 40-point plateau 5 times and the 50-point mark on 22 occasions.n Since the start of the 2016 season, the Cardi-nals have boasted one of the nation’s quick-strike offenses as 60 scoring drives last less than 2:00 and 26 last 1:00 or less.n In nine seasons as head coach of the Cardinals, Petrino’s teams have totaled more than 500 yards of total offense 44 times and over 700 yards on our different occassions, including a school record 845 yards versus Syracuse in 2016.n The Cardinals led the country in total offense and scoring offense in 2004 under Petrino.

TAKE CARE OF THE BALLn The Cardinals were one of the worst teams in the country last season when it came to taking care of the football. UofL ranked 85th nationally in turnovers lost, turning over the ball 21 times, 11 coming on fum-bles. n The Cardinals were 2-3 in games when turning the ball over more than the opposition, and turned it over two or more times in six of the 13 games year ago.

50-POINT GAMESn Louisville has scored 50+ points eight times in the last two seasons under head coach Bobby Petri-no.n Louisville’s 8-0 in those games. The school’s previous record for 50-point games was 11 — coming during the 2004 and 2005 campaigns — which also came under Petrino. n Five of those eight 50+ points games came ver-sus ACC opponents — 63 versus Florida State and 62 against Syracuse. n Prior to the 2016 season, the Cardinals pro-duced only five 50+ games from 2007-2014. CREQUE CEMENTS HIS LEGACYn Junior Blanton Creque has enjoyed a solid areer in his second season as the team’s starting placekicker. The native of Shelbyville, Ky., was 17-of-20 on field goal attempts and 58-of-59 on points-after-conversion last season. The 17 field goals were the third-best total in a single-season.n He ranked 14th nationally and was second the

Atlantic Coast Conference with his 85.0 field goal percentage, while standing 42nd nationally and sixth in the league with an average of 1.25 field goals per game. n The native of Shelbyville, Ky., was 13-of-15 from inside 40 yards and was 4-of-5 from 40+ yards, including a career-long 48-yard field goal against NC State.n Creque scored 109 points last season, which is the fourth-most in school history and stands fifth in the school annals with 196 career points.nThe all-ACC honorable mention winner ranks sixth all-time at Louisville with 33 field goals and is the leader in field goal percentage at 84.6. nCreque had made 14-straight field goals dating back to last season, which was tied for the second-longest streak (Art Carmody) in school history before missing a field goal at FSU. Art Carmody owns the longest streak in school history by connecting on 16-straight during the 2006 season and he also hit 14 from Oct. 1, 2005 to Sept. 3, 2006.n For his career, Creque is 14-of-17 on field goals from 30-39 yards and 5-for-8 from over 40 yards.nAs a redshirt freshman last season, Creque booted 16-of-19 field goals, which was tied for the third-most on the school’s single-season list.nCreque is 97-of-99 on PATs for his career, which is the sixth-most made in school history. KING GOES FOR THREE-PEATn The Cardinals haven’t had to punt much over the last two seasons, but when they do they might have one of the better punters in the nation in junior Mason King. For the last two seasons, the Louisville native has set the school record for punting average in a season at 43.9 yards per punt. Last season, King punted just 43 times, which would have ranked in the top 25 nationally, but didn’t qualify based on the min-imum requirements.n Last season, King was one of the best, helping the Cardinals finish 26th nationally in net punting at 40.1 yards per punt. In 2017, He recorded 10 boots of 50 or more yards and had four games with two of them, while adding 14 during the 2016 campaign. That same season, almost half of his punts were fair caught and 16 landed inside the opposition’s 20-yard line. GREENARD GOES BEHIND THE LINEn Named one of the four captains, junior Jona-than Greenard looks to duplicate his personal-best season from a year ago. Playing a full season, Gre-enard led the team with 15.5 tackles for loss, which placed him in a tie for fifth place in the Atlantic Coast Conference. He also tied for the team lead with 7.0 sacks — tied for the sixth-most in the league.n Greenard had some huge games for the Car-dinals in 2017, posting a career-high 3.0 tackles for loss in a 47-35 win over North Carolina and racking up a pair of sacks at home versus Kent State.n Appearing in 25 games, Greenard. has shown his productivity, registering 22.5 tackles for loss and 9.5 sacks.

Va., recorded a pair of double-digit tackle games, registering a career-best 14 tackles against Boston College and 11 in a home victory over Syracuse. He was credited with eight or more tackles in five contests, totaling eight in a dominating win close the regular season against Kentucky.

STOP THE RUNn The Cardinals suffered difficulties stopping the run last season, yielding an average of 163.4 yards per game. Louisville has been successful when lim-iting the opposition to under 100 yards in a game — recording a 9-1 record in those contests over the last two seasons.n Louisville was a perfect 4-0 last season when holding the opposition to less than 100 yards on the ground -- holding North Carolina to 17 yards and Mur-ray State to 19 yards.

INEXPERIENCED DEFENSEn The Cardinals returns five starters from last

season’s defense and brings back little experience on that side of the football. There is a total of 55 to-tal starts from the players who return from the 2017 squad.n Sophomore linebacker Dorian Etheridge re-turns the most starts with 13 — all coming as a rookie a year ago. Safety Dee Smith is next with nine to-tal starts followed by Jonathan Greenard and G.G. Robinson with six. SMITH LOOKS TO BUILD OFF ROOKIE SEA-SONn Sophomore safety TreSean Smith stepped onto the biggest stage in his first game, picking off a pass in the end zone in the 35-28 season-opening win over Purdue. n The native of Ohio was tied for third on the team with a pair of interceptions — also notching an inter-ception versus Boston College.n Appearing in all 13 games, Smith is the third-leading tackler returning in the secondary with 34 stops and 4.0 tackles for loss.

TRANSFER TO REBUILD SECONDARYn With the loss of four starters in the defensive backfield, the Cardinals look to rebuild their second-ary, and will relay on a pair of transfer to begin that process. Cornerbacks P.J. Mbanasor and Rodjay Burns are two candidates who bolster the second-ary.n Mbanasor, a native of Pflugerville, Texas, hasn’t played since appearing in 10 games at cornerback for Oklahoma during the 2015 season. That season, he recorded seven tackles and a pair of pass break-ups for the Big 12 power.n A transfer from Ohio State, Burns played in sev-en games and recorded one tackle. He returned an interception for a touchdown versus Bowling Green. He played scholastically at Trinity High in Louisville.

BELOW 20n While the Cardinals have been known for potent offenses, there has been a little defense played in the Derby City. Since taking over in 2014, the Cardi-nals have held the opposition to 21 or fewer points 2 0times — posting a remarkable 20-1 mark. The only loss was 20-17 home loss to Clemson in 2015.n The Cardinals finished 24th in scoring defense in 2014 and in the top 40 in both 2015 and 2016.



ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDEOne of the top programs of this decade, the Alabama Crimson Tide is coming off

another remarkable campaign. The No. 4-ranked Alabama football team defeated No. 3-ranked Georgia, 26-23, on a game-winning 41-yard touchdown pass from freshman Tua Tagovailoa to freshman wide receiver DeVonta Smith n the College Football Playoff National Championship Game at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. The Crimson Tide (13-1) won its 17th national championship after edging the Bulldogs (13-2) in just the fourth College Football Playoff. Tagovailoa was named Offensive MVP after going 14-of-24 for 166

yards, three scores through the air and 27 yards on the ground, all in the second half. On defense, junior Da’Ron Payne was named the Defensive MVP with six tackles in the game. Sophomore linebacker Mack Wilson led the team with 12 tackles, including two tackles-for-loss. Senior defensive back Tony Brown and sophomore defensive lineman Raekwon Davis each had an interception in the win.

Senior Isaiah Buggs returns to anchor the defensive line, while Christian Miller and Anfernee Jennings will lead the linebackers.

SERIES WITH ALABAMALouisville is 1-2 all-time against Alabama, but the Cardinals pulled off one of the big-gest wins in school history in the last meeting. Facing off in a New Year’s Day Bowl in 1991, the Cardinals stunned the No. 25 Crimson Tide 34-7 in the Fiesta Bowl in Tem-pe., Ariz. The quarters scored 25 first-quarter points led by two long touchdown passes by Browning Nagle and a blocked punt returned for a score. Alabama won the first two contests in the series on the road, winning 24-3 in 1976 and 55-6 in 1977.

Bobby Petrino, in his ninth season at

Louisville, is one of the most accomplished head coaches in the school’s storied history, leading a program that has trans-formed itself into one of the nation’s perennial powers.

Petrino has won a pair of conference championships (2004 and 2006), advanced to the postseason eight times, more than any UofL head coach, and is tied for the most bowl wins (three). The second-winningest coach in school history, trailing only Frank Camp, Petrino owns a 75-27 (.735) record at Louisville since his arrival in 2003. He ranks first in program history in conference winning percentage (.653, 66-35 record, minimum 10 games), home wins (40), AP Top 25 victories (7), and AP Top 25 finishes (five). His

program has hosted ESPN’s College GameDay on two occasions (vs. Florida State, 2016 vs. Clemson, 2017).

The Helena, Mont., native is in his 31st year of collegiate coaching, including his 14th as a head coach and 10th in Lou-isville (served as the Cardinals’ offensive coordinator in 1998). He owns a career record of 117-48 (.709) in 13 seasons.

The 57-year-old Petrino has helped Louisville maintain its notoriety in the national landscape, as the Cardinals have secured top-25 finishes in five of his eight seasons. Petrino directed the program to a No. 6 final ranking in the Associated Press poll in 2004 and 2006, making him the only coach in program history to achieve that feat.

Known as an offensive mastermind, Petrino’s teams have consistently ranked in the top 10 nationally in numer-ous offensive categories. In eight seasons, he has guided his offensive units to six finishes in top 10 - leading the country in 2000, ending the year second in 2006, and con-secutive third-place finishes in 2016 and 2017.

Scoring has never been a problem in Petrino’s reign, totaling three finishes in the top five nation-ally in scoring offense. Petrino’s 2004 team, which finished 11-1, led the country in scoring at 49.8 points per game.

Petrino’s ability to develop NFL talent has been a trademark of his illustrious career — producing 34 NFL Draft selec-tions, including four in the first round. The 2015 draft saw the Cardinals produce a school-record 10 selections, including the No. 14 pick in wide receiver DeVante Parker.

Over the last two seasons, Petrino has directed the most explosive offensive sea-sons in school history with the program’s first Heisman Trophy winner, two-time finalist Lamar Jackson. With Jackson leading the offense, the Cardinals set six school records

in 2017, most notably the most total yards of offense, rushing yards, yards per carry and yards per play.

In 2017, Jackson rewrote the UofL record book and took hold of the Atlantic Coast Conference annals as well. He became the school’s all-time leading rusher and is the first player in school history to rush for over 1,300 yards in consecutive seasons. He is only the second player in NCAA history to pass for more than 9,000 yards and rush for over 4,000 in a career.

In posting an 8-5 record, the Cardinals scored over 30 points in 10 games, while totaling over 500 yards of offense on eight different occasions.

Sprinting out to a 9-1 start and jumping up to No. 3 in the country, the 2016 season started off as one to remember. ESPN College GameDay made its first appearance at Cardi-nal Stadium, the Cardinals had a huge win over No. 2 Florida State and were ranked as high as No. 3 in the country and 5th in the College Football Playoff Rankings.

Petrino conducted one of the best coaching jobs of his career in 2015. He guided the Cardinals to eight wins over their final 10 games, including a 27-21 victory over Texas A&M in the Music City Bowl. Jackson set a bowl record with 226 yards rushing and two touchdowns, while the Cardinals totaled 534 yards of total offense, including 307 on the ground.

Petrino transitioned the program into the ACC in 2014, guiding the Cardinals to a 9-4 record that included a win over Miami in the school’s first ACC contest and a three-game winning streak to close the regular season. Louisville also earned a win at Notre Dame and a come-from-behind victory over in-state rival Kentucky.

The only head coach to serve two stints with the Cardi-nals (2003-06, 2014-present), Petrino has the second-most victories in the school’s record books. Under his direction, the Cardinals have posted two 11-win seasons and have won seven or more games in each of his years as head coach. His first stint at Louisville boasted 41 wins over a four-year span.

HEAD COACH BOBBY PETRINO



Cardinal Stadium already boasts some of the finest amenities to be considered one of the elite

college football venues in the country.Built in 1998, Louisville’s home recently finished

a $63-million renovation to expand the north end zone – closing off the stadium – and enhancing the Howard Schnellenberger Football Complex. The project is scheduled to be completed in time for the September home opener.

Upon conclusion of the 2016 campaign, crews began construction and the first noticeable phase of the project will be the seating structure for the interior bowl.

Approximately 6,000 additional seats were added with the expansion, creating a unique look in the end zone structure and increasing the total seating capacity to over 60,000. The construction also provides an additional 25,000 square feet of space.

The expansion also includes about 900 modern club seats, 65 premium loge level boxes, and two exclusive field level suites. The club seats will have access to a premier gathering area that will provide viewing access to the field. Fans in that area will have an exclusive view to the players, who will be running onto the gridiron from a middle of the field level entrance after exiting the football complex through a tunnel.

On Jan. 1, 2018, renovations began on the football complex, which includes dramatic changes to the training areas and improving the overall student-athlete experience. An additional 100,000 square feet will allow the team’s weight room and conditioning center to double in size, creating space for team workouts, conditioning, and an enhanced athletic training space equipped with a state-of-the-art hydrotherapy area.

A luxurious and spacious players’ lounge, improvements for coaches’ offices and the team locker room, and expansive theatre-style meeting areas also will be among the major improvements.

Cardinal Stadium, which first opened in 1998, fea-tured a capacity of 42,000 and was expanded in 2010

to the present capacity of 55,000. In the last expansion, approximately 12,000 additional chairback seats were added to a second deck on the east side of the stadium in the UPS Flight Deck. The project included 33 new luxury suites on the Stites & Harbison Suite Level and 2,000 premium loge seats were added to the east side.

A 60-foot wide Norton’s Terrace was constructed at the top of the south end zone, connecting the east and west sides of the stadium. Also included in the previous expansion was the PNC Club, a 20,000-square-foot, glass-enclosed area that stretches from end zone to end zone at the loge level on the east side of the stadium.

The temperature-controlled club features a full-service bar, concessions, large-screen televi-sions, lounge seating and tables. It also has more than 1,700 outdoor seats under cover with heaters and fans.

In addition to being available during football games, the PNC Club is used for other community and campus events throughout the year.

Still in place from the original construction, the impressive Brown and Williamson Club highlights the stadium’s west side. The space extends the length of the football field and contains 28 suites. It has served as host to numerous banquets and parties.

Since 1998, the Cardinals are 94-32 at home and compiled a school record 20-game-home winning streak, which was snapped in 2007.

Stadium Record The Cardinals are 94-32 all-time at home.

Seating Capacity Built in 1998, stadium capacity is currently at approxi-mately 61,000, including suites.

Playing Field Louisville switched from natural grass to Field Turf for the 2003 season and was replaced again in 2014.

Card MarchFans are encouraged to meet the team when the Car-dinals arrive for Card March, approximately 2:15 prior to kickoff. The team buses will arrive at Denny Crum Overpass and will unload and walk down the stairs. The players and coaches will make their way through the crowd behind the marching band and cheerleaders be-fore entering the stadium.
