Clemson vs Louisville Game Preview

Why Louisville Will Win

Louisville turned everything around in a hurry by taking the ball away.

It had a 2-3 record, the season was slipping into the abyss, and the offense couldn’t seem to come though in key moments. Turning the ball over nine times in the first four games was a big part of the problem.

And then the defense saved the day.

It’s Clemson – nothing is going to be easy – but the lines will look for redemption after that trip to South Bend. They’ll get it.
