Isaac Guerendo’s 73-yard touchdown run with 3:24 left Thursday night snapped a tie and lifted No. 11 Louisville to a 31–24 win over visiting Virginia, bringing the Cardinals within a win of a spot in the Atlantic Coast Conference title game next month.

Guerendo exploded off the right side, going untouched to the end zone for the score that improved the Cardinals to 9–1 overall and 6–1 in the ACC. It capped their rally from 21–14 and 24–17 deficits in the fourth quarter.
