ESPN RECAPLouisville dominates Syracuse 41-17 for third straight win
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Another dose of defense helped spur Louisville to the offensive explosion it has sought all season. Kyle Bolin threw for a season-high 362 yards and three touchdowns, and Louisville gained a season-high 579 yards to rout Syracuse 41-17 on Saturday for its third straight victory. More impressive than the yardage was how the Cardinals did it. They ran the ball hard and often at the Orange and gained 217 yards on 31 carries, its third-highest total this season. That opened things up for Cardinals coach Bobby Petrino to gamble on fourth and 2 from the 48 with the kind of play typifying his offensive expertise. With Syracuse defenders covering wideouts downfield, Bolin found tight end Keith Towbridge wide open off the line for a 32-yard pass that set up a 13-yard touchdown pass to Cole Hikutini for a 21-10 lead. Louisville never lost control.
