Louisville football is just a couple of days away from its huge ACC showdown with North Carolina. The Tar Heels are coming off a dominant win over UConn, and while UNC is 5-4, many ACC football fans know this squad can be tricky.
3 bold predictions for Louisville vs. North Carolina in Week 11
UNC has played two of the best teams very closely this year. They took Miami down to the wire and lost by three, and earlier they played Notre Dame much closer than many would have thought, as it was just a one point game in the second half at one point.
Now, it is Louisville’s turn to head to Chapel Hill, and the Cardinals are looking to win their fifth straight game. Not many teams are playing better football than Louisville right now, as the Cardinals have won four straight, including three games by 24 points or more. Lincoln Kienholz and this offense have emerged as one of the best in the nation, averaging 40.8 points per game, and they got some good injury news a couple of days before the showdown.
So, with Saturday just two days away, let’s break down how fans can watch and some key injury updates.
