Regardless of the circumstances, first years after a major coaching change (although I guess there aren’t really minor coaching changes) are always tricky to predict.

Predicting that the 2019 Cards would be involved in the highest-scoring game in program history, that their opponent would be a 5-0 league foe ranked in the nation’s top 20 and playing at home, and that Louisville would come out victorious in said game .
