Good thing how you start isn’t how you finish, because the start of the matchup for Louisville football was ugly.
The Cards defense was able to hold Pittsburgh to just a field goal on two straight drives after giving up multiple big plays, but it didn’t stop them from starting the game on a 13-0 run.
Louisville bounced back, scoring 17 straight points and giving themselves a lead for the first time.
