Louisville vs Clemson recap: U of L goes down as Malik Cunningham exits game with injury
The Louisville football team is on a hot streak.
Last week, the Cardinals (6-3, 3-3 ACC) took down James Madison 34-10. The win was U of L's fourth in a row.
Today, Louisville heads to South Carolina for a conference matchup against No. 10 Clemson (8-1, 6-0 ACC), which is coming off a loss to Notre Dame. The Tigers are led by quarterback DJ Uiagalelei, but don't be surprised to see true freshman Cade Klubnik behind center either.
Running back Will Shipley (135 carries, 802 yards, 11 touchdowns) is another threat coming out of the backfield the Cardinals will have to watch.
Louisville's defense has allowed 133.8 rushing yards per game, which is tied for 49th nationally. In two of its last four games, the unit has held opponents to less than 100 yards.
Follow along for live updates to see if Louisville can pull off another upset.

HALFTIME: Clemson 17, Louisville 7
During the last play of the half, Louisville quarterback Malik Cunningham appeared to have suffered an injury on a long run. Cunningham was on the ground for a few moments but was able to jog to the locker room.
Malik just took off and almost had a TD but slipped and... it didn't look good. He was visibly in pain and holding that left hand.
