No. 23 Louisville 69, North Carolina 14

Posted Oct 9, 2005

North Carolina coach John Bunting witnessed a spectacular fireworks show in Louisville on Saturday night that none of the Tar Heels wanted to see. Brian Brohm threw for 304 yards and four touchdowns and Michael Bush added three scores as No. 23 Louisville routed the Tar Heels 69-14. It was the most points allowed by North Carolina, surpassing a 66-0 loss to Virginia in 1912. Louisville's nine touchdowns also set a record against North Carolina, which has fielded teams since 1888. (Lexington Dispatch)
