Check out how to stream this ACC game between the No. 5 Louisville Cardinals (6-1, 4-1 ACC) and the Virginia Cavaliers (2-5, 1-2).

The result of this game is in little doubt before the ball is even kicked off. Vegas set the line at 25.5 points and the bettors laughed at how low it was. They proceeded to bet it all the way up to 33.5. There is one reason for the fan without a rooting interest to watch this game: Lamar Jackson. He may be the most compelling player to watch since Michael Vick. At any second, he can break off a spellbinding 70-yard run or snap his wrist  and flick a ball over the top of the defense.

With arguably the best quarterback and running back being the same guy and being in your huddle, Louisville unsurprisingly has the country’s best offense. The Cardinals average 52.6 points per game and 616.9 yards of total offense. Last week, Jackson accounted for all four of his touchdowns in the first half as Louisville took a 44-0 lead into halftime and went on to beat NC State 54-13.

Virginia has a far worse defense that NC State does, not that it could get much uglier than the NC State game. The Cavaliers are ranked 100th or lower in every category but rushing defense where they are 71st. Their only hope is to dominate time of possession like Duke did when they only lost 24-14 to the Cardinals. Virginia has a competent QB-RB tandem in junior Kurt Benkert and senior Taquan Mizzell. Mizzell is averaging 5.6 yards per carry and is a key piece in the passing game out of the backfield.
