Wake Forest RB makes L'ville regret '15 snubbing
Matt Colburn said his performance Saturday wasn't about revenge, but the Wake Forest tailback certainly didn't take it easy on the team that pulled his scholarship offer at the last minute in 2015.
Colburn, whose offer from Louisville was pulled just before signing day, set a career high by rushing for 243 yards and three touchdowns in a 56-35 win over the Cardinals.
"It's obviously going to heighten things," Colburn said of his history with Louisville. "But for me and my situation, I think after my freshman year, I wanted to get rid of the whole revenge narrative."
Still, revenge must have been was pretty sweet for both Colburn and Wake Forest.
