LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) – Louisville’s first drive at Miami Friday night was a YOLO special. It was Improv Night at Hard Rock Stadium, and Cardinals’ coach Jeff Brohm was living his best life.
Brohm emptied his bag on that drive, on national TV.
It wasn’t football. It was jazz. It looked like the opening number at a South Beach nightclub. Trick plays, decoys, sleight of hand. The only thing missing was a tiger and a fog machine.
Eleven plays, 75 yards, seven points. And it was the key to everything that happened afterward in the signature win of Brohm’s Louisville tenure, a 24-21 shocker over a No. 2 Miami team that came into the game with an unbeaten record and a roster valued at $40 million.
The drive was remarkable because it was fun. It worked because it was fearless. A quick recap.
