Louisville says first-time starter Lincoln Kienholz made major camp gains in comfort, leadership and command of Jeff Brohm's offense after a full offseason in the system.

Louisville's preferred Ole Miss plan is to establish Isaac Brown and Keyjuan Brown, use Kienholz's mobility selectively and avoid asking him to match veteran Trinidad Chambliss throw for throw.

Isaac Brown is fresh and healthy after Louisville managed his camp workload, and he returns from an injury-shortened 884-yard, seven-touchdown 2025 season.

Louisville's upset path requires winning the turnover battle, limiting Ole Miss explosives and giving Kienholz time to find a rhythm behind the run game.
