Report: Michigan finalizing two-year scheduling deal with Louisville

Michigan and Louisville will play a pair of neutral siter games over the next two seasons, per Jeff Goodman.

The Wolverines and Cardinals will meet in Detroit this year, on December 5th, with a return game set to be played in Indianapolis the following season.

Louisville is entering Pat Kelsety’s third season and is viewed as a preseason top-15 team after adding several high-profile transfers included Jackson Shelstad and Flory Bidunga.

The game apepars to replace the previously reported potential game against Duke, which was moved from New York to Miami and then canceled due to disagreements over broadcast rights.

Michigan’s loaded non-conference schedule also includes UConn, Marquette and Villanova along with three (and potentially four) games at the Players Era 16 in Las Vegas. Track all announced and reported games on our future schedules page.
