Cardinals head coach Bobby Petrino will look to unveil his new props during Lousiville's Week 1 matchup with Alabama on Saturday night. Kickoff from Camping World Stadium in Orlando is slated for 8 p.m. ET. 

Lousiville will join a trend started by Miami last season, which became a sensation with its debut of the turnover chain on Sept. 2. College football has become awash with imitators since the Hurricanes released the turnover chain, inclduding Texas A&M's pimp cain and Tennessee's trash can.
