Louisville Injury Report: Anwar O'Neal Probable, Demeco Kennedy Questionable vs. SMU
- Louisville lists left tackle Anwar O'Neal as probable after he missed the first two games, and offensive lineman Cason Henry is also probable. Bryten Close, Sam Secrest, Max Merz and Cameron Gorin remain out. O'Neal's designation offers potential help to the line, but the initial report does not confirm his return or how the starting lineup would change.
- Louisville defensive lineman Demeco Kennedy is questionable on Wednesday's report, while Jeff Brohm had said Monday that the injury suffered against Ole Miss would likely keep him out for two to four weeks. The report and coach's earlier estimate should both be retained; neither establishes that Kennedy is cleared for SMU.
- Louisville running back Isaac Brown, defensive back Santana Wilson and receiver Montavin Quisenberry are probable. Keyjuan Brown is absent from the injury report after Brohm had expressed hope Monday that he could return against SMU. No workload or specific rotation for either running back is confirmed.
- Louisville's other listed absences are receiver Payton Cook, defensive lineman Sam Dawson, tight end Travis Egan and punter Jacob Baker. Together with the four unavailable offensive linemen, the article identifies eight players as out for SMU; no replacement punter or revised receiver rotation is supplied.

Louisville vs SMU: Projected Depth Charts
- Louisville's projected offense keeps Lincoln Kienholz ahead of Davin Wydner at quarterback and Isaac Brown ahead of Keyjuan Brown or Marquise Davis at running back. Tre Richardson, LaWayne McCoy and TreyShun Hurry are the projected starting receivers. The article reuses Louisville's game-one chart, so these are not newly confirmed Week 3 roles.
- Louisville's projected starting line is Lance Robinson, Eryx Daugherty, Evan Wibberley, Johnnie Brown III and Cason Henry from left to right. Robinson also appears as backup center, while Naeer Jackson backs up both right-side positions. This describes projected depth and positional overlap, not an announced injury replacement.
- Louisville's projected defensive core pairs edges Clev Lubin and AJ Green with tackles Daylen Russell and Joshua Donald; Stanquan Clark and T.J. Capers lead at linebacker. Antonio Watts is listed at STAR, with Tayon Holloway and DJ Waller at corner and Koen Entringer and Kaleb Beasley at safety. The listings remain projections drawn from the game-one chart.
