Here's an in-depth statistical breakdown of Louisville's strengths and weaknesses based on the numbers for the whole season.
What I see is a team that's very beatable, but also one that is sometimes misrepresented. Their passing numbers, considering the protection, are not as bad as you would believe. Couple that with the ability they may have (depending on the QB) to test a defense with a mobile passer, and I think Louisville's offense will not be as easy to defend as some do.
However, just as the pass game has become more prolific, some other areas have been getting worse.
