Will Louisville spoil Miami's perfect season, or is this the Hurricanes' year to shine?

College football is heating up as Week 8 approaches, and Mario Cristobal’s Miami Hurricanes are riding high with a perfect 6-0 record. Staying undefeated is a big deal in college football, no doubt! After a much-needed bye week, Miami is back on the road for an exciting ACC matchup against the Louisville Cardinals. This game has been marked on everyone’s calendar since the schedule dropped—and for good reason.

The Louisville vs Miami Hurricanes game kicks off at 12:00 noon ET and will be broadcast on ABC. If you’re streaming, you can also catch it on ESPN, ESPN3, or ESPN+. This matchup promises to be a thriller! Why? Well, Louisville has had Miami’s number, beating them six times in a row. The last time these two teams met, Louisville edged out Miami 38–31 in a close contest. However, Miami looks stronger this year, and they’ve got a solid chance to break that streak. And adding to the excitement, the game will feature Joe Tessitore and Jordan Rodgers on the call.

Joe Tessitore, known for his lively commentary, was in the booth last week during South Carolina’s thrilling near-upset against then-No. 7 Alabama. He usually works with Jesse Palmer, but Palmer will miss some games this season due to his commitments with ABC’s ‘The Bachelor.’

Tessitore is a familiar voice in the sports world, serving as the lead commentator for ESPN’s boxing coverage and anchoring Top Rank Boxing. He’s also the founder of the annual Sportscasters’ Superball for CF Research. This week, he’ll be joined by Jordan Rodgers, who brings his own quarterbacking background to the broadcast.

Jordan Rodgers, the brother of New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars as an undrafted free agent and also played in the CFL. Now, he’s a well-known sports analyst and TV personality, making him the perfect fit for this exciting matchup. With Tessitore and Rodgers calling the game, you’re in for an entertaining experience.
