Louisville vs USF Game Preview

Why USF Will Win

The running game has been outstanding so far.

It worked okay in the loss to BYU, it ripped up Howard, and then it went off on Florida for close to 300 yards in last week’s impressive 31-28 loss.

What’s going right? The offensive line isn’t allowing sacks, there’s a good rotation of runners to keep everyone fresh, and now the machine gets to roll against the worst run defense in the ACC.

What’s Going To Happen

Can USF force enough takeaways to pull this off?

It’s going to run for more than 200 yards on the Cardinals, but the defense won’t be able to come up with enough key stops to pull off the upset.

This is a DESPERATE Louisville team. Let’s put it this way – it had better win this, or the season is probably over. The defense has to play up to the moment.
