Louisville Football: Three Positive Take Aways from Heartbreaking Loss

That sucked. Just wanted to get the undeniable fact out of the way that Louisville football’s 3rd loss of the season to Florida State ended in the absolute worse case scenario.

Up by three with two minutes to go, and well into field goal range, Bobby Petrino did the unthinkable and elected to pass on first down. The result, a Florida State interception, led to a 58 yard touchdown four plays later from FSU’s Nyquan Murray that sealed Louisville’s fate.

We can talk about the horrifying play-calling in the game’s waning minutes that led to the Cards blowing a 21-7 and 24-14 lead.
