Was the Cardinals' fake punt the turning point in their thrilling comeback against Miami?

Another weekend, another full-blown pumped-up game for all CFB fans. Today’s showdown is between the Louisville Cardinals and Miami Hurricanes. Both teams gave a neck-to-neck competition to each other, showcasing remarkable gameplay. However, the Hurricanes won their faceoff with a high-margin score of 52-45. But the main highlight of the game turns out to be a pretty unexpected move by the Cardinals. Let’s see what was that.

Louisville Cardinals are on fire in today’s game against the Miami Hurricanes. During a particular 4th down play, Louisville decided to position themselves for a punt against the Hurricanes, which automatically sent the Hurricanes behind. This was a very risky decision, but the Cardinals successfully completed their pending yards on the 4th down. Quite an impressive move; however, the game begins from that point.

After that punt, they kept pushing the ball forward, eventually for the touchdown, and in the end, Louisville Cardinals star tight end Duane Martin rushed for a 14-yard touchdown, which helped the team to equalize their game score from 31 to 38 to 38-38 against the Hurricanes with a remarkable field score. The Louisville Cardinals’ bold move impressed even the commentator as he said, “Man, oh man, we got everything today.”

The reaction was justified, as no one would have thought the team could turn the game for them using the punt technique. Even though the Cardinals didn’t win the game, this 4th down escape moment will always remain intact in everyone’s mind. For now, let’s discuss Miami’s remarkable win against Louisville.
