Louisville will take on Miami in a crucial final ACC matchup

The Louisville Cardinals will have a huge ACC matchup today as they take on the Miami Hurricanes. The Cardinals come into the game at 9-1 (6-1), while Miami comes into the game at 6-4 (2-4). The Hurricanes are looking for a big win this season, as their best wins have come across schools having struggling seasons, like Texas A&M and Clemson.

Miami has lost 2 in a row, with a blowout loss to NC State (20-6), and a surprisingly close loss to #4 Florida State 27-20. Miami has been known to fall apart after losing to FSU in the last couple years. They seem to play FSU close but then give up on the season in the weeks after (except last year where they lost 45-3).

The Cardinals have also has never won at Hard Rock Stadium, and the fact that it is a noon kickoff just screams weird vibes for this game. This could potentially be a trap road loss for the Cards, as the betting line even favors the Hurricanes.

Miami will be without their recent starting QB Emory Williams, and will instead be starting previous starter Tyler Van Dyke. Van Dyke has had turnover problems this season, and will retake the starting role after Williams was injured for the rest of the reason.

Louisville will need everything they can get against the Miami Hurricanes on the road to take the victory. With an ACC Championship berth on the line the Cardinals should be prepared and ready, but only time will tell until the game kicks off at 12:00.
