Georgia Tech vs Louisville Prediction
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are 10.5-point underdogs against Louisville, with the over/under set at 58.5 points.
The Yellow Jackets rebounded nicely after the loss to Syracuse. Georgia Tech is led by quarterback Haynes King who went 17-for-22 for 275 yards and three touchdowns last week.
Heading into this game, Louisville coach Jeff Brohm knows stopping King is a key part of success.
"We were not great at stopping the quarterback in the run game in the first half last game," Brohm said, via Whas11. "In the pass game, you can't allow [King] a lot of rush lanes. He has the ability to run the draw and get yards, scramble and get yards. There's designed quarterback runs, misdirection...you have to know where the ball is and where the quarterback is."
Louisville, meanwhile, didn't play and will be well-rested in this home game in Week 4. The Cardinals are also led by quarterback Tyler Shough who has gone 39-for-57 for 581 yards, 6 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions through two games.
Brohm has also been impressed with his quarterback.
"He's done a good job, without question," Brohm said. "He's been very efficient. He can throw the ball, he's practiced well. He understands what we're doing and how to do it. Now we're going to face some really good football teams that are going to challenge us more, so he's going to have to be good in his decision-making and make throws with people coming at him."
Ultimately, Louisville's offense has been great and should be able to take advantage of the Yellow Jackets' defense. Shough does a good job of not turning the ball over and he will be able to carve up the Yellow Jacket's defense to cruise to a win.
