The Cardinals went 10-4 during the 2023 season, but dropped their final three games of the year.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - At this point in time, it's well established that that Louisville football program had a very successful first year under head coach Jeff Brohm. The Cardinals went 10-4 for their first 10-win season in a decade, and also clinched a spot in the ACC Championship Game for the first time since joining the conference in 2024.
"From a coaching aspect, there are things we could have done better, in my opinion," he said during the ACC Football Kickoff. "In order to be competitive against the best teams, which we face some good teams late in the season, you've got to be sharp in every aspect. That, in combination with some mistakes we want to correct on the field.
The head man in charge of the Cardinals isn't the only one who believes that coaching played a role in the program looking and playing drastically different in the final month of their inaugural campaign under Brohm. "When opponents have that much data against you, you must continue to evolve," he said. "I really felt like, against Kentucky, we made some mental errors in the game. But I felt like, , we didn't have enough bullets. I didn't coach as well as I needed to, I didn't put the players in the positions they needed to be in, and that was the facts."
"We will research, we'll study, and you just have to be creative each and every week a little bit," Brohm said at the ACC Football Kickoff. "I think a lot of times, as we've looked and studied ourselves, when we first run a new play, it's always very successful. As we coach it more, it gets less successful. So you know what? Sometimes, all right, we need a couple of these wrinkles every game, because they normally work.
English used the game at Miami as an example. With Jarvis Brownlee being out due to injury, it meant Louisville didn't have a true nickel available, and limited what they could do in man coverage - specifically when it came to guarding Xavier Restepo. The Canes wideout finished that game with eight catches for 193 yards and a touchdown.
