Despite being short multiple impact playmakers and riding a three-game losing streak, the Louisville football program didn't let that hold them back from unleashing their might against Kentucky, blasting them with a 41-0 beatdown in the annual Governor's Cup rivalry showdown.
Here's what head coach Jeff Brohm, quarterback Miller Moss, running back Braxton Jennings, running back Shaun Boykins Jr. and safety D'Angelo Hutchinson had to say following the win:
(On what was different with the offense today)
“It’s hard to point to one thing. I mean, football, especially offensive football is the ultimate team sport. When you have a bunch of guys doing their job at a high level, I think that’s what it looks like. I think we’re really aggressive early on, which I enjoyed and was happy about. I think that paid dividends and obviously allowed us to build the lead and I was really proud of how we played in the second half, especially up front. Being down, I mean Shaun (Boykins Jr.) is on scholarship but he’s a receiver, so there’s no scholarship running backs and we were still able to run the ball that way. I give a ton of credit to the offensive line, and then obviously our two backs that played today and stepped up.”
(On coming back from injury and playing well in the rivalry game)
“It was super frustrating, honestly, to not be able to play (last week). I was talking to my family about that. I hadn’t missed a game as a starter since forever, like Pop Warner, high school, and all the way through college. It was frustrating to sit there and not be able to help your team and go out there and sacrifice with those guys. But I give a ton of credit to our training staff. Shawn Love and those guys, they did a great job in helping me get right. Just couldn’t be more grateful to work with them and they have me feeling very, very confident in the foot going out there.”
