QB Lamar Jackson

After true freshman dual-threat quarterback Lamar Jackson set a Music City Bowl record 226 yards rushing while throwing for two more scores, the hype began to build. Not just for Jackson, but for this young Louisville football team. Coach Petrino has his team in a prime position to compete with the likes of the big boys now. There's a ton of players coming back and 2016 is primed to push the Cards into an 11 or 12 win season for the third time in four years.
