Louisville Football's 2020 Preseason Depth Chart Unveiled
While the upcoming 2020 home opener vs NC State on Sept. 2 is up in the air due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we now finally have an answer as to who will start against the Wolfpack.
On Monday, the University of Louisville Football Program released their 2020 Media Guide which included their preseason depth chart.
There is not a ton of overall change, due to 16 of the 22 starters returning for the upcoming season. However there is a noticeable newcomer presence, as 15 of the 25 incoming players (freshmen or grad transfer) are listed.
In the first year under head coach Scott Satterfield, the Cards went 8-5 including a Music City Bowl win vs. Mississippi State. They also went 5-3 in the ACC for a second place finish in the Atlantic Division behind only Clemson.
