Pittsburgh (5-3, 3-0) remains undefeated in Big East play after an impressive 20-3 victory over the Louisville Cardinals (4-4, 1-2) this afternoon. The Panthers defensive performance was stellar and pressured Louisville’s QB Adam Froman for four solid quarters.
Pittsburgh’s Tino Sunseri was held without a passing TD, but did go 13 for 24 amassing 123 yards and spreading the ball to 7 different receivers. RBs Dion Lewis and Ray Graham combined for 115 yards and 2 TDs.
The game ball goes to the entire defense forcing two turnovers while holding Louisville to 82 total passing yards and 103 total rushing yards on 55 plays. Froman had no rhythm and looked off his game all afternoon holding the ball late and delivering poorly thrown passes.
This is the third straight season Louisville has lost to Pittsburgh knotting the all-time series 7-7.
