The 2023 Louisville Cardinals football team represents University of Louisville as a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) during the 2023 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Cardinals are led by first-year head coach Jeff Brohm and play home games at the L&N Stadium in Louisville, Kentucky.

## Schedule[edit]

Louisville and the ACC announced the 2023 football schedule on January 30, 2023.[1][2] The 2023 season will be the conference's first season since 2004 without division scheduling. The new format sets Louisville with three set conference opponents, while playing the remaining ten teams twice (home and away) in a four–year cycle. The Cardinals three set conference opponents for the next four years are Georgia Tech, Miami (FL), and Virginia.[3][4]
