LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- So much for the notion that No. 5 Louisvilles path would be smoother since its only loss at Clemson.Yes, the Cardinals have blown out North Carolina State and Boston College, but only after being tested by Duke and Virginia respectively. Louisville (8-1, 6-1 Atlantic Coast Conference, No. 6 CFP) now hosts improved Wake Forest (6-3, 3-2), which looks to beat a ranked opponent a week after becoming bowl eligible for the first time since 2011.After edging the Demon Deacons 20-19 last season on the road, Louisville expects another battle Saturday night from a team featuring familiar faces on defense.Its the same team we played last year, Louisville sophomore right tackle Lakayus McNeil said. We just have to make sure we step up our game. Its different from when we played them last year because we were young and didnt know exactly what to do. This year, were going to play harder because were smarter.The Cardinals 52-7 rout of BC helped them move up a spot in the College Football Playoff rankings and they want to keep the committees attention with another dominant effort led by Heisman Trophy favorite Lamar Jackson.Louisvilles sophomore quarterback accounted for seven touchdowns against the Eagles to raise his nation-leading TD total to 45. Wake Forest is allowing just 18.4 points per game is prepared to offer more resistance to Jackson, especially after forcing three turnovers in last weeks 27-20 win over Virginia .Were ready for the challenge, Demon Deacons defensive end Duke Ejiofor said of facing Jackson. Were so excited to play Louisville. ... No fear here.---Some other things to watch as Wake Forest visits Louisville:NEARING MILESTONES: Jacksons 19 rushing TDs have put him within one of matching the ACC record for QBs set by Georgia Techs Tevin Washington in 2012. He needs two more TDs to tie the league mark of 47 set by Clemsons Deshaun Watson.NOT DONE YET: While beating Virginia was big for the Demon Deacons, theyve lost three of five and face a daunting two-game stretch that continues next week at Clemson. Wake Forest coach Dave Clawson has made that point clear this week. Theres a lot left in the season, a lot more to play for, he said. You never want a loss to cause a second loss, and you dont want a win that you get so caught up in the moment you dont get past it. So we had to quickly refocus.NOWHERE TO RUN: Louisville has been downright stingy on the ground since yielding 201 yards in the loss at Clemson. The Cardinals have held their last three opponents below 100 yards rushing and are allowing an average of just 66.3 yards over the past four contests. They rank seventh nationally in run defense with an average of 106 yards per game.DEACS PASS RUSH: Wake Forest is among three teams tied for third in the ACC with 27 sacks. Ejiofor has eight sacks and LB Marquel Lee five, and the two are tied for 12th nationally with 13 tackles for loss each.BATTLE FATIGUES: Louisvilles latest alternate uniform will honor the Armed Forces with a black-and-white scheme featuring a Stars-and-Stripes pattern on the shoulder pads and gloves.

But I really wanted to do well this week to show a lot of people that I can still play.She had a poker face and a putter that couldnt miss, a combination that was too much for Lydia Ko or anyone else.Even more remarkable is that Park had not faced top competition for two months.
