For a little while on Thursday night, Murray State held their own against Louisville. The Racers' fight, however, was short-lived as Jawhar Jordan and the Cardinals ran out to a lopsided 56-0 win.
Things started about how one might expect. After a quick three and out on their opening possession, MSU surrendered a quick touchdown when Louisville's Jamari Thrash scampered in for a 12-yard touchdown.
The Racers defense tightened up after the initial score, however. On the next Cardinals series, they forced a punt and would not allow another touchdown until the second quarter. Even after Louisville's second score, Murray State still hung tough.
