Cardinal Stadium Hosts Clash Between Louisville Cardinals and Clemson Tigers in Football Showdown

The Louisville Cardinals faced a challenging game at Cardinal Stadium, ending with a 1-6 record after being overpowered by the Clemson Tigers, who improved their season to 7-0. The final score stood at 10-45 in favor of the visiting team.

The home team's offense struggled to gain traction against a formidable Clemson defense. The Cardinals managed only 224 total yards, with their ground game accounting for 156 yards across 43 attempts. Their lone touchdown came from a short three-yard rush, contributing to their ten-point tally for the day. Despite these efforts, the passing game was stifled, as they completed just eight out of twenty-two attempts for a mere 107 yards.

Louisville's special teams had moments of efficiency with punting averaging nearly 49 yards across six attempts and placing one inside the twenty-yard line. Their field goal unit was successful on its sole attempt from within twenty-nine yards.

Defensively, the Cardinals intercepted two passes and returned them for twelve total yards but were unable to capitalize on these opportunities by scoring. They also recorded one sack during the game but ultimately could not contain Clemson's high-powered offense.

On the other side of the ball, Clemson showcased why they are undefeated this season by putting up forty-five points against Louisville. Their offensive unit was relentless throughout all four quarters as evidenced by scoring three points in Q1 followed by fourteen in Q2 then seven in Q3 and finally an impressive twenty-one points surge in Q4 sealing their dominant performance.
