WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Louisville’s offense didn’t need to do a whole lot in the second half. Thanks to an opportunistic Cardinals defense, Wake Forest managed even less.Louisville forced five turnovers in the second half of a 20-19 victory over the Demon Deacons on Friday night.“That’s the best feeling in the world, that you can rely on your defense to make plays,” receiver Jamari Staples said.Staples caught two touchdown passes from Lamar Jackson for Louisville, which managed just 108 total yards after halftime and turned those five takeaways into only three points. For the Cardinals, the most important thing was that the ball belonged to them — not to Wake Forest.“When we’re put in that situation, we pride ourselves on making those stops,” linebacker Trevon Young said.Jackson was 19 of 26 for 207 yards with those scoring throws covering 14 and 22 yards to Staples for the Cardinals (4-4, 3-2 Atlantic Coast Conference).John Wolford was 6 of 19 for 131 yards with a 58-yard touchdown pass to Tabari Hines for the Demon Deacons (3-6, 1-5), but he threw three of his team’s four second-half interceptions.
