No one expected the road back to respectability for University of Louisville football to be easy. Too much ground to make up after being so far down.
Case in point that cliffhanger of a 41-39 win for UofL over Boston College in front of a crowd of 46,007 at Cardinal Stadium on Saturday. An outcome still much in doubt after Blanton Creque makes good on a 41-yard field goal and a two-point lead for UofL at the 1:02 mark.
That play setting the stage for what would have been a heartbreaking finish.
