The Mustangs surrendered 63 yards on 26 attempts for yards on the ground, or an average of 2.4 yards per rush allowed.

 

Louisville Analysis: They lost their first game last time out

Louisville had also gotten off to a good start, winning their first three games. After defeating Austin Peay 62-0, the Cardinals defeated Jacksonville State 49-14. The third game was a 31-19 contest against Georgia Tech. When the Cardinals faced Notre Dame on Saturday, they lost 31–24 after giving up 21 points in the initial quarter and failing to rally. Tyler Shough gained 264 yards, three touchdowns, and a pick-six. Ja’Corey Brooks caught five passes for 71 yards and two touchdowns, and Isaac Brown contributed 72 rush yards on 13 carries. Though they lost to Notre Dame hard, the Cardinals need to improve. In the end, Louisville gained 395 yards, 19 first downs, and 7 of 17 third-down conversions. But the three turnovers were the ones that killed it. Louisville’s defense was strong statistically, thus the Cardinals will win if they can maintain that level of energy in this match.
