Louisville

ACC · 2026 season

The story so far

Louisville fans spent the season fixated on a secondary that cannot cover, with misery peaking at 86 after back-to-back close losses to Wake and NC State. Three straight wins have them at 5-3, but even a 52-24 rout of Stanford left them uneasy rather than celebrating.

  • From busted coverages in a Villanova blowout to Stanford scoring all three touchdowns on blown assignments, fans hammered Mark Ivey's zone schemes, begged for man coverage, and repeatedly said they missed Ron English.

    “We're gonna get shredded by SMU if Ivey doesn't get his shit together Linc is a DOG though”
