Consider that in 2019 Cunningham was among the best quarterbacks in the ACC. Last year Cunningham threw 12 interceptions and lost three fumbles. His problems were symbolic of the program’s struggles. Of major concern, the Cardinals committed 24 turnovers in 2020. Louisville ranked 119th nationally in turnover margin at minus-12.

All-SEC running back Jerrion Ealy is back after rushing for 745 yards and nine touchdowns. Additionally, Elijah Moore had 86 catches in the 2020 campaign. Defensively Ole Miss ranked an abysmal 126th in total defense and 117th for points allowed. Thus, only marginal improvement is expected for the 2021 campaign.
