Louisville hasn't been shy about shooting itself in the foot this season.
The turnover-prone Cardinals (2-6, 1-6 Atlantic Coast Conference) will look to limit their miscues on Friday night when they host Syracuse (1-7, 1-6).
Louisville held a 478-368 advantage in total yards last Saturday, but three costly turnovers led to its undoing in a 31-17 loss at Virginia. The Cardinals have 18 turnovers on the season.
"That was obviously the big difference in the (Cavaliers) game when you go back and watch it, but there's a lot of plays that were good on both sides of the ball and we have got to continue to build off of it," Louisville coach Scott Satterfield said.
