They've done an excellent job of not giving up big plays and making people drive the ball. They've got a good secondary," Kragthorpe said.The Cards have won the last five meetings of the two teams, who now vie annually for the Keg of Nails trophy. Louisville is 5-4 on the season, with three games remaining.
