How good is Louisville?

Haven't watched them play this year - so this is a game/stats based analysis.
4 games in a row have been decided by a touchdown - they're 1-4 in those games.
We'll need to shut down Shough/Brooks.
I like our Tigers: 38 - 28.
Thoughts?

I haven't seen that type of record since the Coots lost to Bye a few years ago.

Have some good players on offense. QB is a decent passer. Not a threat to run much. Keep him in the pocket with a good pass rush. Linebackers need to play well against the run.
Defense is like Swiss cheese.

They can put up some points but their defense doesn't scare me. At all.

And we struggled with UVA and were lucky to escape with the win, according to eSECpn. Not good.

Statistical view
Total Offense - 459.9ypg (17th)
Passing Offense - 298.6ypg (14th)
Rushing Offense - 161.3ypg (64th)
Scoring Offense - 37.7ppg (20th)
So they definitely lead with their passing attack but lets look at the defenses they have played (losses are bolded)
Austin Peay - NR
Jax State - 109th Total, 63rd Passing, 120th Rushing
GT - 42nd Total, 78th Passing, 27th Rushing
ND - 10th Total, 13th Passing, 30th Rushing
SMU - 25th Total, 90th Passing, 7th Rushing
UVA - 107th Total, 121st Passing, 54th Rushing
Miami - 21st Total, 61 Passing, 8th Rushing
So while its not totally cut and dry it seems to be their passing O MIGHT be propped up by the defenses they have played. I also recognize much more goes into this, like their defense, the score, turnovers etc. Kinda like ours has been skewed by blowouts and backups getting time
Clemson's defensive rankings
53rd Total
52nd Rushing
71st Passing

good offensive mind. Pretty good passing game but their QB is not a mobile guy. We need to get pressure on him. They have a fast FR RB back that can burn us on outside runs if we don't get that shored up. He's averaging 8.3 YPC and I saw him torch Miami on some similar plays last weekend. I think they are going to put up some points on our defense.
Their defense is pretty average - maybe even a little below average. There should definitely be points to be had against this group for our Tigers.
They are 17th in FPI, just 4 spots and a few pts behind us. They are 30th in SP+ (we are 13th there too). Based on that I would expect the opening line somewhere around Clemson -7 to 10. The Vegas spreads usually track pretty closely with FPI and SP+.
They've lost 3 games to 3 very good teams - all by exactly 7 pts. I wouldn't be surprised if they kept it close against us too. If we blow them out it will be our best performance of the year.

1-3 in those games. Won four lost three. Highly overrated. We can score as many as we want. It all depends on which defense shows up. The one that puts four quarters together or the one we’ve had all year. Moments of lights out defense followed by chaos and no ability to get off the field.
Clemson 50
Louisville 28
21 come in fourth quarter from Loserville.

But out defensive #1's will need to play most of the game, if not all of it.
