No. 2 Miami is back from its second bye week to defend its undefeated record on Friday night in a spotlight game against Louisville. The battle-tested Hurricanes have made it through the most grueling portion of their schedule unscathed and enter their second ACC game as nearly a two-touchdown favorite.Louisville (4-1, 1-1 ACC) is also coming off a bye after losing 30-27 to Virginia on Oct. 4. It’s been a quiet start to the year for Cardinals, but they can change that with an upset of the Hurricanes.
USC transfer Miller Moss has thrown for 300+ yards in Louisville’s last three games while beginning to find a rhythm in coach Jeff Brohm’s high-flying attack. The Hurricanes are quite familiar with the rigors of defending Brohm’s scheme after surviving for a 52-45 win over Louisville last season. The last time these teams played in Miami, Louisville got the better of the Hurricanes with a 38-31 win in 2023. Given the recent history of close, high-scoring games, it would be no surprise if there are fireworks this time as well.
