Yards Joins Games For Cardinals

NCAA Football Betting Lines

Shreveport, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - James Franklin ran for two touchdowns and threw for another, leading Missouri to a 41-24 win over North Carolina in Monday's Independence Bowl. Franklin finished with 142 yards on the ground and 132 through the air for the Tigers (8-5), who used 31 straight first-half points to grab a decisive advantage. They recorded four straight wins to close the season, their last in the Big 12 before a move to the SEC.

 

But the Tar Heels, playing their final game under interim coach Everett Withers, failed to maintain the momentum.

 

Franklin capped Missouri's next drive with a two-yard touchdown plunge and Trey Barrow hit a 31-yard field goal early in the second quarter before the Tigers capitalized on a pair of UNC turnovers prior to the break.

 

Giovani Bernard's fumble at the UNC 40 was converted into Franklin's eight- yard TD strike to Jerell Jackson and an interception by Zaviar Gooden resulted in Kendial Lawrence's nine-yard scoring run.

 

The teams traded touchdowns in the third quarter, as Renner hit Boyd for a 44- yard score and Franklin crossed the goal line from two yards out the ensuing drive.

 

Withers, who took over for ousted head coach Butch Davis prior to the season, is heading to Ohio State, where he will act as Urban Meyer's co-defensive coordinator and assistant head coach...North Carolina hired Southern Miss coach Larry Fedora as Withers' replacement... The Tigers have recorded six straight eight-win seasons...Renner finished the year with 26 touchdown passes, a new UNC single-season record...This was the third all-time meeting between the teams. The Tigers lead the series, 3-0.

 

This game marks Louisville's 16th postseason appearance. The Cardinals are 7-7-1 in bowl games all-time.

 

Much like the Cardinals, Tom O'Brien's Wolfpack needed a strong second half of the season to reach the postseason. NC State had just four wins heading into November, but won three of its last four games to close out the year, including a marquee win over Clemson (37-13). The team finished in the middle of the pack in the ACC at 4-4.

 

Louisville has won all three previous meetings with NC State on the gridiron.
