Louisville football enters its second Friday night game of the season with a 5–1 record and fresh legs after a much-needed bye week. Following a heartbreaking overtime loss to Virginia two weeks ago, the Cardinals now face their toughest challenge yet: a road trip to take on No. 2 Miami. According to FanDuel, the Hurricanes are favored by 13.5 points, with the total set at 50.5.
If not for the self-inflicted wounds against Virginia — including the 14 points surrendered to the Cavaliers’ defense — this matchup might have featured two ranked teams and a much tighter spread.
