7-7 with 12 minutes left in the first half.

This is actually the first time these two teams have played each other.

From what I watched in the ACC champ game, yeah Louisville is not very good. 10 wins, how 😂
Drawing Georgia Tech (7-6), Boston College (6-6), Virginia Tech (7-6), Virginia (3-9), and Miami (7-6) in ACC play, in tandem with an OOC of Indiana (3-9) and an FCS team helps.

It also helped matters that they got NC State in week 6 (before it’d figured itself out) and that they live rent free in Sam Hartman’s head.

I understand Louisville is not that good - but the difference has been the USC QB against the Louisville defense.

They lost to Kentucky at home.
Honestly, they led from the first quarter onward until about 8:30 left in the 4th quarter.

What didn’t help matters was starting that 4th quarter with a fumble at their own 31, followed by another fumble at their own 35, followed by a turnover on downs with 5 minutes left in the game.

Their loss to Pitt was much more damming than that loss to UK, though.

Louisville playing with pretty much all their starters from this year 10-3 playing a USC team that is not even close to what they are going to be in the future and getting shredded. ACC is the worst power 5 league in football .

How does a QB complete 20 of 24 passes but only 6.5 yards per completion? That is an insane stat.
