Louisville Football: 5 reasons why the Cardinals will beat Virginia

3. Louisville looking for revenge from 2014 road-loss
Most Cardinal fans remember this heartbreaking loss in Virginia a few years back and it still hurts. Louisville got beat 23-21 by the Cavaliers on a field goal with about 3:42 left in the game. The Cards weren’t able to put together a drive to win, therefore the 21st ranked Cardinals fell to 2-1 on the season.
Louisville played Virginia last year and only won by seven points. The good news is that Kyle Bolin played quarterback that game, not Lamar Jackson. Jackson did however have one carry for 45 yards in Louisville’s 38-31 win.
Therefore, the Cardinals are do for a big win against the Cavaliers. Not only have the Cards played them close, but they got beat the last time they traveled to Virginia.
This is a different Louisville team and they should go into Virginia and take what’s theirs. Look for Lamar Jackson to have another huge game and allow Kyle Bolin to finish what he started.
