Kirk Herbstreit Predicts Top 10 College Football Upset on Saturday

ESPN college football analyst Kirk Hersbtreit will be in the booth, calling a matchup between the No. 1 Texas Longhorns and No. 5 Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday.

While Herbstreit was unable to make his prediction for that massive SEC showdown on ESPN's "College GameDay," given his connection to the game, he did share some interesting picks with the college football world.

Herbstreit believes an upset is brewing in the ACC. Fans may be drawn to the Texas matchup in Austin or a game between No. 7 Alabama and No. 11 Tennessee, but Herbstreit is focused on another matchup that could shake up the rankings.

He believes the unranked Louisville Cardinals will upset the No. 6 Miami Hurricanes despite the Cardinals coming into the matchup as a 5-point underdog .

Herbstreit thinks Louisville's offense, behind quarterback Tyler Shough, will be the difference maker.

"I am picking the upset," Herbstreit said. "This is an upset special. Tyler Shough, Ja'Corey Brooks outscore Miami. I think Louisville wins."

Louisville's offense has been phenomenal all season. They're averaging 35.2 points per game on the year, passing for nearly 300 yards per outing.

Shough has recorded 14 touchdowns and 1,674 yards for the Cardinals, completing 63.4% of his pass attempts.

Brooks has served as the team's No. 1 receiver all season. He leads all skill players in total touchdowns with six touchdowns on the year and has also added 30 receptions and 573 yards.

The Cardinals also have a great ground game behind running back Isaac Brown. The South Florida native has produced three touchdowns and 508 yards on 59 carries this season.

Given Louisville's balanced offense, Herbstreit thinks No. 6 Miami will fall to an unranked team in Week 8.
