Louisville’s 23–0 domination of Duke on Saturday kept the Cardinals toward the top of the pack in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship race—while simultaneously making first-year head coach Jeff Brohm richer and more secure.
The Cardinals’ seventh win of the season automatically added another year to Brohm’s contract, extending him through the 2029 season. If Louisville (7–1) gets to 10 wins this season, it will add a second bonus year to the deal and extend him through ‘30. There are numerous other incentives that Brohm has a chance to collect as this season progresses.
Saturday’s rout of the Blue Devils lifted No. 18 Louisville to 4–1 in the ACC, good for at least a tie for second in the league after Saturday’s games are completed. North Carolina, 3–1 and ranked No. 17, plays Georgia Tech Saturday night. Fourth-ranked Florida State, the league leader, moved to 8–0 overall and 6–0 in the league, after routing Wake Forest.
