The Louisville Baseball team enters the 2022 season in a situation that Cards fans have not experienced over the past few seasons. Dan McDonnell’s clubs have been selected as the favorite to win the ACC year in and year out, but this team isn’t getting the same preseason love as Louisville teams have in the past.
The Cards are picked to finish 4th place in the Atlantic Division behind Florida State, North Carolina State, and Notre Dame, although they did pickup two first place votes. Clemson, Wake Forest, and Boston College round out the division.
Florida State is the favorite in the ACC this season, returning both their Friday and Saturday starters in Parker Messick and Bryce Hubbart from last year, but the schedule is setup for Louisville to make some noise as a “dark horse.
