BTP Pregame Predictions: Louisville

State played one good half of football and one bad half last week against Syracuse. Luckily, the good half outweighed the bad and the Wolfpack got the W, but that same effort probably won’t result in a win against a Louisville team that is essentially just a much better version of Syracuse.

As per normal, each BTP contributor provides their score prediction below, plus a Twitter-esque 140 character-constrained comment on their predicted outcome. Let’s get to it!
