Connecticut Vs. Louisville
Louisville -3½ vs. Connecticut.
The UConn Huskies (4-0) have the Friday night NCAA stage all to themselves for the second consecutive week when they play at Louisville (2-1) this week in the Big East opener for both teams.
This game features what have been the league’s top two running backs so far this season in Louisville’s Victor Anderson and the nation’s leading rusher, Connecticut’s Donald Brown.
Brown has 716 yards on the ground in four games – nearly as much as the 826 yards he had last year. He’s been a force to be reckoned with since the beginning of the season, gaining 146 yards during Week 1, 214 in Week 2, 206 in Week 3 and 150 more last Friday against Baylor. He will be motivated to put last year’s game against Louisville behind him as he had only 8 yards on five carries
“He’s very elusive and he’s hard to tackle,” Louisville head coach Steve Kragthorpe said of Brown. “You never seemingly get a clean shot on him. You’re always trying to get a profile shot on him.”
Anderson had a breakout game against Kansas State in the Cards’ win last week, rushing for 176 yards and three touchdowns and has back-to-back 100-plus-yard games. The Cardinals have relied heavily on the running game to take some of the pressure off QB Hunter Cantwell, though he could get some help on Friday if wide receiver Scott Long can return from a foot injury suffered during training camp.
Long was Louisville’s most experienced returning receiver, catching 27 passes a year ago. Kragthorpe said Long could return Friday. Wide receiver Troy Pascley, who already has two touchdowns this year, should play after injuring his hip against Kansas State. Starting offensive linemen George Bussey and Mark Wetterer will also likely return after sitting out against the Wildcats.
Louisville leads the all-time series 3-1, but last year UConn’s Andre Dixon scored on a 5-yard run with 1:32 left to play to give the Huskies a 21-17 come-from-behind win. However, UConn is 2-11 all-time in Big East road games.
The Cardinals are 3.5-point favorites for Friday’s game on WagerWeb.com
