5. Can Louisville shake off the distractions from the espionage allegations?

Whether it’s true or not, Wake Forest head coach Dave Clawson has successfully put the Louisville football program in the spotlight. He, without directly stating it, accused the Cardinals of stealing his game plan for the game last Saturday.

Of course the National media has jumped all over this issue and is making it seem like the Cards are 100 percent guilty without Wake Forest having any proof. Bobby Petrino had to comment on the accusations on Wednesday afternoon and declined that his program would do such a thing.

Regardless of what did or did not happen, it will be interesting to see how they handle the negative attention.

Not to mention, it seems the like commentators get worse every week, so prepare yourselves for that as well.
