The Miami Hurricanes choked like they always do when they have an opportunity to make some noise late in the season. They hosted the Louisville Cardinals on Friday night and never led in the game. Louisville took a 14-0 lead, 17-10, 17-13, and finally a 24-13 lead into the fourth quarter.
The Louisville defense forced Carson Beck into multiple interceptions in the game and forced a Miami offense that hasn’t scored 30 points against a Power Four team yet this season to play from behind.
The game shouldn’t have been as close as it was. Louisville forced a huge Miami punt late in the fourth quarter, but the Cardinals fumbled the ball on their first play, and Miami recovered the fumble and scored on its first play.
