Stanford's Kenney Hits 52-Yard Field Goal to Upset No. 19 Louisville After Blown Lead

Nov 17, 2024, 12:12 AM

Stanford stunned No. 19 Louisville with a 38-35 victory, secured by a 52-yard field goal from Emmett Kenney as time expired. Louisville, which held a 14-point lead with 9:44 left and a 98.7% win probability, suffered a collapse marked by 20 yards of critical penalties and questionable game management. With 10 seconds remaining in a tie game, Louisville opted to go for it on fourth-and-10 rather than punting. After failing to convert, the Cardinals committed unsportsmanlike conduct and offside penalties that moved Stanford into field goal range. Kenney, notching his second ACC walk-off field goal, sealed the win. The victory snaps Stanford's six-game losing streak and impacts the ACC's College Football Playoff hopefuls.
