Season record: 22-30-1
Louisville Cardinals (-3, 50.5) at Virginia Cavaliers
Adam Burke: With all of the talk about Tua Tagovailoa, football coaches at the pro and college levels will be feeling the pressure to err on the side of extreme caution with concussed players. Louisville QB Malik Cunningham is one of those players. College coaches don’t have to be nearly as forthcoming with injury info as NFL coaches and Scott Satterfield keeps talking as if Cunningham might play, but it seems unnecessary to put his health and future at risk.
This play is a little speculative that Cunningham won’t play. Either way, the main crux of this argument is about how far Virginia’s offense has fallen. Des Kitchings is ruining Brennan Armstrong and has ruined this Cavaliers offense. Virginia has averaged 5.22 yards per play this season after finishing fifth in the nation with 6.95 YPP last season. Armstrong has gone from a 65.2% completion rate with a 31-10 TD-INT ratio to a 52% completion rate with a 4-5 TD-INT ratio.
