Should be a fun game. I think we can beat them and it would be a great one to pick up to get us closer to bowl eligibility

Conley leaves Clemson game with back spasms, set to return to practice
Courier-Journal

Louisville, KY – After being sacked by Clemson's LE K.J. Henry, Louisville's starting quarterback Evan Conley was helped off the field and back to the locker room due to a back injury. Freshman Quarterback T.J. Lewis took over for Conley for the rest of Louisville's 10-70 loss on Saturday night. Conley has been sacked 45 times this season.

Conley was quickly examined by team doctors, who determined Conley's injury was a case of back spasms. While the injury was minor, medical staff advised he sit out the remainder of the game and closely monitor his condition for the next few days.

As it stands, Conley is expected to return at Quarterback for Louisville against Florida State this week and set to return to practice Monday. Conley has completed 149 of his 271 passes for 2279 yards in his Junior campaign and hopes to cap it off on a high note. Conley has thrown an ACC-high 22 interceptions. He has also thrown 18 touchdowns.

The Cardinals must win their final games against Florida State and Boston College to be bowl eligible.
