On the ensuing drive, Dougherty broke loose for a 40 yard run and fellow runningback Kason Graybill followed with a 20 yard run. Graybill sealed the deal for the Leopards with a 7 yard touchdown run with 1:38 to go. The extra point was no good, but Louisville held a commanding 23-6 lead which they would ride to the finish. .
