WE’RE GOING BOWLING!!!
Being bowl eligible with three games still left on the schedule is not something I think many of us expected to see after the inexplicable loss at Boston College. But here we are! Guaranteed to watch the Cards play around the holidays and with more to still play for this regular season.
Louisville’s win over James Madison, you guessed it, allowed ESPN’s FPI projections for them to improve. Their projected record is still 7-5, but the total wins has creeped up to 7.4 wins. Here’s how FPI projects Louisville’s chances winning each of their remaining games:
#10 Clemson - 23.8% (18.5% last week)
#16 N.C. State - 65.3% (63.5% last week)
#24 Kentucky - 52.25% (49.4% last week)
Winning even one more game will be a challenge with Louisville’s three remaining points all ranked currently. But along with most analytics, the majority of fans have the Cards going 1-2 to finish the season.

You may notice a certain team on our remaining schedule is not ranked, however.
As we move closer to bowl season and there are less variables remaining, the bowl projections tend to become easier to…..project. So I won’t be surprised if we start seeing a lot of similar predictions moving forward.
