Louisville looks to reverse road woes
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Louisville's defense can't seem to catch a break against West Virginia.
Pat White left a lasting imprint on the Cardinals with four standout games, including last year when he ran for 200 yards and three touchdowns, threw for two more scores and set an NCAA career rushing record by a quarterback in the Mountaineers' 35-21 win.
While White grabbed the headlines, running back Noel Devine quietly did his share of the legwork. His 154 rushing yards on just 13 carries last year wasn't lost on Louisville coach Steve Kragthorpe.
"Gosh dang it, every time that guy touches the ball, something magical is going to happen," Kragthorpe said. "He makes you hold your breath."
Devine needs 46 yards when West Virginia (6-2, 2-1 Big East) meets Louisville (3-5, 0-3) on Saturday to reach 1,000 for the second straight season.
