LOUISVILLE, Ky. - The Louisville football program is coming out of the first bye week of their season, and their first matchup vs. a power conference opponent is awaiting on the other side, with Georgia Tech coming to L&N Stadium this weekend for Louisville's ACC opener.

The No. 19/20 Cardinals (2-0, 0-0 ACC) haven't faced stout competition to open their season, but have dominated the two teams in front of them. They opened up the 2024 season with a 62-0 demolition of Austin Peay, then followed that up with a 49-14 beatdown over Jacksonville State.

As for the Yellow Jackets (3-1, 1-1 ACC), they were able to bounce back after a slight hiccup. A week removed from falling 31-28 at Syracuse for their first loss of the season, they were able to get back in the win column with a 59-7 victory against FCS foe VMI.

This will be the fourth all-time meeting between Louisville and Georgia Tech, with the Yellow Jackets holding a 2-1 advantage in the series. While GT won the first two showdowns, the Cardinals won the most recent matchup, claiming a 39-34 win at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Ga. back on Sept. 1, 2023 in what was Jeff Brohm's first game as the head coach of his alma mater.
