Clemson offense takes aim at struggling Louisville defense

CLEMSON – The Louisville offense is humming right along this season, putting up enough points and yards to win four games and overcome a sluggish defense. That defense is what Tony Elliott and the Clemson offense will be aiming for Saturday.

The Cardinals are ranked 24th in scoring offense (37.3 points per game) and 16th in total offense (489 yards per game). The defense is a polar opposite, ranking 97th in scoring defense (31.7 points per game) and 101st in total defense, giving up 431 yards per game. Louisville gave up 59 points, 40 first downs, and 668 total yards (423 through the air and 245 on the ground) last weekend at Wake Forest.
