Three points to Wake Forest and a phantom face mask later, Louisville's fanbase is officiating out of spite.

What happened

Wake Forest came to town and left with a 30-27 win, and Louisville came away with a 2-2 record and a grievance. The turning point was a face mask call that the fanbase refused to accept, one that turned a stop into a fresh set of downs and a stadium into a chorus of "that's not a fucking face mask." Misery jumped from 30 to 70 in a single Saturday. "We are getting absolutely screwed right now," one fan wrote, which is the polite version of a season that still has plenty of Saturdays left to disappoint.
