We are officially 93 days away from kicking off a new football season and the Cardinals will also be starting play in the new American Athletic Conference. Louisville will play one season in the American Athletic Conference before leaving to join the ACC. They will be replaced by East Carolina, Tulane and Tusla for the 2014-15 academic year.
Today the new AAC conference unveiled its new logo. It was another step forward for the former Big East to rebrand the image of the conference before the official launch on July 1. It looks like something you might see on the front page of a Marvel’s Comic Book, but I suppose it will be good enough for a year. Most Cardinal fans including myself just want to get through this season of transition and get to the ACC. I think the American Athletic Conference feels the same way as they omitted Louisville from their conversations in league meetings this summer and also make no mention of the Cards on their new website. They don’t even include them in the header.
“Awkward!”
