In what was a common theme for the Cardinals season, turnovers destroyed the Louisville Offense. The O gave up the ball 5 times, 3 times through the air and a fumble by both Chaney and Lacy.
Although shooting themselves in the foot frequently, the Louisville offense still managed to move the ball some. Chaney had 96 yards rushing (18 attempts, 1 TD) and 146 yards receiving (14 receptions, 0 TDs). Shough went 33-45 for 453 yards and 1 TD, still racking a 151.8 QBR despite throwing 3 INTs.
The Louisville defense played poorly, creating no turnovers and never sacking the Purdue QB.
When asked about the season ending, Coach Ofc Meep stated, "Turnovers have been killing us all season, moving us from what should have been a top-tier ACC season to a mid to bottom tier team." His future is up for debate, as he has shown frustration with the Cardinal program throughout the season and the fanbase has shown him the same animosity back.
The Boilermakers end of their NDL season 29 campagin with a win over Louisville in the Pinstripe Bowl.
Thienman, angered about the snub for the best defensive back award, was able to force fumbles on convective drives and house an interception for a touchdown on 3 consectuive drives. The Boilermakres were able to capitalize on all of those turnovers, with a long touchdown pass to C.J. Smith and a 3rd down touchdown pass to Devin Mockobee. The Boilermakers held the Cardinals scoreless in the first, bringing the score to 21-0.
The Cardinals were able to bounce back, scoring 2 field goals and a touchdown in the second. The Boilermakers offense started to stall, but they were able to score on a 1 yard touchdown run by Devin Mockobee.
The third quarter was highlighted by both defenses, with the Boilermakers only scoring a field goal, and the Cardinals scoring 1 touchdown.
The Boilermakers were able to find their rythem again in the 4th, off another long touchdown pass to C.J. Smith. The boilermakers were able to score 17 in the 4th, while holding the Cardinals to 14. This led to a final score of 48-34.
GG ofc Meep, and good luck next season!
