This weekend is big for the University of Louisville football program for two reasons; not only is this an opportunity to snap a two-game losing streak to Kentucky, but it also presents the possibility of continuing siginificant momentum on the recruiting trail. The Cardinals are hosting a large group of standouts from a combined 17 different states for the matchup against the Wildcats. Let’s take a look at who will be making a trip to the Derby City this weekend.
