Game Analysis
Louisville (-10.5) 33 Western Kentucky 19 (Nashville, TN)
I thought Louisville was a bit underrated heading into this season and the Cardinals played well against Notre Dame (out-gained by just 29 yards) before blasting Eastern Kentucky 42-0 last week as a 21-point favorite. Western Kentucky lost as a favorite to Central Arkansas before pulling off an upset win at FIU last week. My ratings favor Louisville by 13.7 points.
Note: Louisville starting QB Juwon Pass is out but backup Malik Cunningham is an elite runner and was a more accurate passer last season (60% completions on 67 attempts) than Pass is (54% and 52% so far this season).
