Louisville Handles Bowling Green 40-17 Behind Reserves and Special Teams

Special teams powered a short-handed Louisville.

Overview

  • Third-string running back Keyjuan Brown took most of the carries and scored twice after the team said starter Isaac Brown was limited and Duke Watson was unlikely to play.
  • Caullin Lacy returned a punt 75 yards for a touchdown and added a team-high receiving day, becoming the first Cardinal with two 75-plus-yard return TDs in a season.
  • The Cardinals' quarterback topped 300 passing yards, with outlets listing him as Miller or Will Moss and reporting totals between 316 and 329 yards.
  • Louisville built a 21-3 halftime lead with two first-half interceptions of Drew Pyne, outgaining Bowling Green 452-321 but settling for several second-half field goals.
  • Kicker Cooper Ranvier made three field goals, and backup Nick Keller hit a 57-yarder for a stadium record, as Louisville now heads to Pittsburgh for its ACC opener next week.
