Louisville +7 2.2% play

This was a battle last year that Clemson found to win late.  There really isn’t anything different with this years Clemson team vs. last year’s Clemson team.  Maybe the defense is worse?  They have no confidence at QB, and I believe that will continue here.  Louisville, a far better defense than a season ago, and playing with a ton of confidence right now.  They rank 32^nd in ypc defense, and 25^th in EPA run defense, and that has come against 57^th ranked run defense.  Clemson ranks 44^th, vs average opponent 81, and Notre Dame with a  one dimensional attack absolutely dominated them a week ago.  Louisville can get to the QB here ranking 3^rd in sack %, and #1 in forcing turnovers per possession in the country.  IF Clemson can’t run for 200 yards I’m not sure how they are supposed tow in by a TD here.  This will be a tightly contested game that MIcale Cunningham and this Louisville team will have every chance to win.
