One week after setting a new career-high with four touchdowns in their win over NC State, Louisville quarterback Micale Cunningham managed to top his performance. The sophomore had a career-high six total touchdowns (five passing, one rushing) and 298 total yards (238 passing, 60 rushing) as Louisville (7-4, 5-3 ACC) put up 608 total yards of offense in a 56-34 win over Syracuse (4-7, 1-6).
Javian Hawkins and Tutu Atwell joined Cunningham in establishing new career-highs on a rainy Saturday evening. Hawkins ran for 233 yards with a touchdown, while Atwell had 152 receiving yards and two touchdowns (including a 90-yarder late in the second quarter).
