Louisville football is gearing up for a road game against Virginia Tech on Saturday. As the season is raging on, every game is now a must-win for the Cardinals to keep their ACC championship hopes alive. That said, the Cardinals can’t focus on other teams' outcomes; they can only control their own future. That starts this week with 3-5 Virginia Tech, which is almost the definition of a trap game.
Louisville comes into this matchup ranked No.16 and fresh off a win against Boston College, which was a little too close for comfort. Now, the Cardinals must go into a hostile environment against a Virginia Tech team that is just trying to cause more shakeup in the ACC.
