Live scores, highlights and updates from the Syracuse vs. Louisville football game

The Syracuse Orange haven't won a matchup against the Louisville Cardinals since Nov. 9 of 2018, but they'll be looking to end the drought on Saturday. 'Cuse and U of L are opening their 2022 seasons against one another at 8 p.m. ET at Carrier Dome. The Orange struggled last season, ending up 5-7. Likewise, last year was nothing to brag about for U of L (6-7), either, so the squad is looking forward to a new start.

Two last-season offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: 'Cuse was 31st best in the nation (top 12%) in rushing touchdowns, finishing the 2021 season with 28. But U of L was even better: they ranked 25th in the nation in rushing touchdowns, closing the year with 29 overall (top 10%). We'll see if that edge gives the Cardinals a route to victory.

Since the experts predict a loss, the Orange will need to dig deep. Perhaps they'll be able to flip the script and come out with a big victory.
