The Louisville Cardinals improved to 7-1 with a 28-16 victory over Virginia Tech, showcasing their trademark resilience in a dominant second-half performance. After trailing 16-7 at halftime, Jeff Brohm's squad outscored the Hokies 21-0 in the final 30 minutes, demonstrating why they're now ranked 14th nationally.
