In a stunning turn of events during Week 6 of the 2024 college football season, the SMU Mustangs delivered a shocking upset against the No. 22 ranked Louisville Cardinals. The game, which took place at the L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium in Louisville, saw the Mustangs triumph with a final score of 34-27. After back-to-back losses, Louisville had hoped to regroup and return to the win column, but fate had other plans. The Cardinal's quarterback, Preston Stone, struggled against an agile SMU defense, led by standout sophomore Kevin Jennings, who stepped up and showcased his offensive prowess throughout the matchup.

The atmosphere was electric, with fans from both sides eagerly anticipating a fierce contest. SMU fans were buzzing after seeing their team rally from a slow start to dominate mid-game with strategic plays and a series of impressive touchdowns.

These pivotal moments shifted the tides, turning the Mustangs into the winning team that no one saw coming.

As the clock ticked down, Louisville fought valiantly to maintain their ranking and reputation, but their efforts were thwarted by accurate throwing and smooth running from the Mustangs. By displaying grit and determination, SMU not only snatched the victory but also positioned themselves for a more esteemed role in the ACC standings. This match will likely go down in history as one of the highlights of the 2024 season.

In the aftermath of the match, critics began to take note of Jenningsโ€™ impressive performance and SMU's well-executed game plan. The Mustangs' victory raised questions about Louisville's position in the ACC after facing their first conference loss. Fans of college football love an underdog story, and this game certainly delivered on that with SMU taking flight against a top-ranked opponent.

Fun Fact: The last time SMU defeated a ranked opponent was back in 2019, a game that fans still celebrate! Additionally, Louisville has always been known for their explosive offense, but this game showcased their vulnerabilities, reminding fans that anything can happen on a Saturday afternoon in college football!
